It all started because of Neopets. I forgot the password to my first username, JapaneseCrane244 (Japanese cranes are awesome birds, and Neopets picked a number for me since JapaneseCrane was taken), so I made another one. Since I was into Bionicle at the time (still am), and because my first name is Mandi, I stuck the two together and got BionicleMandi. Then I realized I'd typed the e-mail to the account wrong, so I had to start over. >< Neopets offered some numbers to put at the end, and I picked the easiest one to remember: 121. There you have it. XD

121 also happens to be eleven squared. Something I realized a year or so later.

In case you were wondering, BionicleMandi works now because I somehow fixed the e-mail. I might delete it though. I never go on anyway.
And I still haven't found the password to JapaneseCrane244. >>

My username is basically an obession over naruto. My favorite clan is the uchiha. In order it would be Obito, Itachi, and then Sasuke. The blade part just comes from my obession of swords. Currently i'm working on a wooden boken in my basement. I would have named myself swordlancer74, but it was too long in my opinion. I just switched the E with a 3 because i thought it looked better. The X part is a partial obession with megaman.

Well since my link isn't working anymore I'll explain it again.
Originally IbunCloudslayer was just the name of my neopet. It was an orcish translation of my real name, Jeff Gallo. Once I got into the furry fandom, I began looking for a name for my fursona, and I remembered my neopet, and that has been my online nickname ever since. I've even changed my usernames on this and other forums, as well as my AIM screenname.

Though my first anime was DBZ my second was Gundam Wing. I credit this as the first series where I really got into anime. I love Heero Yuy and I believe Gundam Wing is the best series ever created. So that's why Heero is in my name.

As for the red part I'm rather absessed with the color red. Mostly that obsessio is from FF7s RedXIII character. I jsut took off the XII.

Put them together and you get Redheero. Though I originally made this name on Gaia.

My screen name was chosen because one day I found the word Pseudonym in a dictionary at school when I had to look up the definition of some words, and I thought it was a really cool word. So when I needed a username, I decided to use that as it means "false name" and as I couldn't think of a name, I decided to use that. Though I shortened it, I still tend to use the full word if I can't use the short one.

My screen name is the hero unit in the single player campaign for Act of War: Direct Action. I chose it because this guy single handedly devestated a terrorist base. He's a foot soilder in the game.

When I was younger, my sister, father and I were playing Roller Coaster Tycoon (1) and we had just figured out that you could name the characters; we were looking around the one premade park, which, inconsequently, would have one of the roller coasters crash about a month into the game no matter what unless you deleted it, and we found this one visitor with pants and a shirt that was the same color as his skin which we found disturbing. Naturally we named him and watched him go throughout the park. When naming him we couldn't decide on a name so I said "just hit random keys" and what that got us was the name "poijk;" which really doesn't sound all that good, so we took out the j and ; to get Poik.

Next, the Spirit part came about out of boredom, I was listening to a sermon at my church and doodling; I don't remember what it was supposed to be at first, but I ended up just blackening the whole thing with the pencil which I turned into the silhouette of a man, and, of course, the next logical thing was to set his head on fire. No clue why, but I chose to use the nickname I took from the random person on RCT (which I used for myself at the time) and add Spirit to the end to make it sound cool. Well, it's stuck and I couldn't change it if I wanted to just because every screenname I have is now PoikSpirit or Poik-related.

And now I return you to your regularly scheduled sanity (or not).

Where I got my screen name? I actually got it from Joshiah's Guild Wars character

which I don't even remember doing. Oh well, I use it for pretty much everything(except for yahoo and msn). Please don't hate me for it! The good thing is, that no one can say it right for the first time when I play Halo 2 on Xbox Live XD

My name comes from my favorite game. I'll give you one guess. Did you say Sims Makin' Magic? Well, that's WRONG! Although that used to be my favorite game. My favorite game now is Timesplitters Future Perfect. Although, I do really like Sims 2...Then again, Sonic the Hedgehog is pretty awesome.Still, Super Mario 64 was te best game for the N64.Super Smash Bros. Melee is good too.Tony Hawk? Maybe...

Huh? Oh yeah. Orgin of screen name. Well it is originally from Sims Makin' Magic. My first screen name was thesims18690. It is also my Runescape name. I used that for a while, then I got bored with it (Turns out people had trouble memorizing it. Go figure.) so I changed it to someting easier to remember, and still sims related. I use it alot. Don't believe me? Look up "Simsmagic" on Google or something.

Strings of numbers are usually hard to remember.

I picked gardialvour (i really want it changed to Gardialvoir so silver wont put me with those other guys) because I love my Gardevoir and I have a shiny Dialga, which, btw, do exist. gardialvour is a combo of the names Gardevoir and Dialga, incase nobody caught on.
