Who Deserves the 2004 Best PF Username Award?

[Dissident Dan]

New Rule: best name has to be original

 

[i_wish_i_was_smart]

what qualifies as original then

 

[jimmy p]

i think my name is quite original... no-one else is called jimmy p on PF

 

[Njorl]

Can I get some creativity points?

Only if your name is not Russ Watters.

Njorl

 

[Dissident Dan]

what qualifies as original then

Well, using a character's name, such as Trogdor, is not original. If you are just using your real name, that is not original, since your parents came up with it (plus, you don't get any style points). Having part of your name is acceptable if it's incorporated into something clever.

Glad I could dictate the rules.

 

[jimmy p]

hmmm i think that it is still unfair, no-one else uses my name therefore I'm original.

(and i don't care about minor details like "They Cant")

 

[Evo]

Hey, Chopnik is pretty original. Can I change my vote to Chopnik?

 

[jimmy p]

woot! a vote, you ARE the greatest PF mom! Look below!

 

[rathma]

Hey, Chopnik is pretty original. Can I change my vote to Chopnik?

It's not though. 'Chopnik' is a character in a TV series, that used to be a comic book series.
And Dissident Dan, when were you declared 'Rule Dictator'? I see no occupation of the like anywhere. Characters, if in obscure books that no one but me has read in 60 years, are perfectly acceptable. (I stripped you of your self-appointed rank! I have a strange sense of power... ) A vote for Rathma is a vote for your collective jugulars staying where they are!





Chaos. Disorder. Widespread panic. My work is done here.

 

[jimmy p]

you don't scare us! we're mean and tough! and besides, my heart doesn't beat so ripping out my jugular would only serve as a minor inconvience when it comes to socialising.

 

[Tsu]

Whoa! What? What TV series? When? What comic book series?

And sorry, Dissident Dan. I have to agree with mean, rotten, nasty Rathma. Only the person who started the thread can make the rules. And the thread is called BEST Username Award - NOT Most Original.

And, so as not to show any favoritism...

Rathma - GET REAL, you whacko!

 

[Evo]

It's not though. 'Chopnik' is a character in a TV series, that used to be a comic book series.

I did a search and there is no chopnik character.

Who would've thought rathma was capable of such evil?? :surprise:

HA! BUSTED! Rathma, you're GROUNDED! GO TO YOUR ROOM! (hmmm... I don't know... this 'mom' thingy is sort of fun... )

 

[Matt-235]

See, my screenname explains all you need to know about me. Like U-235, I'm inherently unstable, and if you get enough of me in concentration, you get disastrous results.

Ok, points for creativity.

 

[Ebolamonk3y]

Hey! I use 235 as well!

 

[i_wish_i_was_smart]

how but i_wish_i_was_smart, because I'm no where as near smart as any of you

 

[Ebolamonk3y]

lol no point of reference. sorry. :) So you don't know if you are smart or not... We are all very ignorant so its alright.

 

[jimmy p]

notice the deft flick on the 'k' of Chopnik?? THAT is originality.

Yeah, I've always liked that...

 

[Peter Pan]

what is a "chroot"?

 

[Peter Pan]

I have always been partial to "Halls of Ivy" it has a ceritan ring to it

 

[Tsu]

what is a "chroot"?

<operating system> The UNIX command to make the root
directory (/) become something other than its default for the
lifetime of the current process. It can only be run by
privileged users and is used to give a process (commonly a
network server such as FTP or HTTP) access to a restricted
portion of the file system.

The new root contains copies of all the essential files and
directories, e.g. /lib, /dev/tty, /tmp.

A lot of us are partial to Halls of Ivy.

edit: oops. credit where credit is due... The above definition was from Dictionary.com

 

[Trogdor]

*crowd starts cheering* TROGDOR! TROGDOR! TROGDOR! TROGDOR! TROGDOR!
so what if I'm not original? I'm still the best! I'm awesome!

 

[hypnagogue]

I came up with hypnagogue before I even knew it was a word. How's that for originality?

Unfortunately, I don't have a muscle bound arm bulging from my neck, so I must still defer to Trogdor.

 

[BobG]

How did we ever forget to include this in the annual awards?

 

[Hypercase]

Nothing states it like HYPERCASE (quite an accurate description too :) ).
Besides i could qualify as the best forum lurker. :)

 

[check]

I think 'check' is the best. Short, original and to the point. Plus it's a good nickname.
