I usually use vaguelyhumanoid which I came up with when I was 12 or 13 and I originally used on Urban Dead. I forgot how exactly I came up with it. Probably it was either in an Urban Dead character description I had or else it was a phrase used in the D&D Monster Manual somewhere or something that i thought was catchy.

Makes sense, you're Irish. They don't have modern things there.

I assume you're posting this from a potato?

Two potatoes and a cabbage.

A cabbage? Using the leaves to make a parabola so you can contact a satellite? Very clever.

[Gaveo]

I have a really bad PSN account name... Probably need to change that to Gaveo.

So you know, things can be uniformed.

No, I am not telling you my PSN account name. It's too 10 year oldish. >.<

As for this one I used the word hueveo. And I just changed it up to Gaveo.

Then one night I made a map (because that's what I did for fun when I was 13) and I made Gaveo the nation.

3 months later I made Gaveo the country in NS.

[Transnapastain]

I tend to use Transnapastain for a lot of things.

I think I've told the story of where it came from before, but I had to weigh the effort of typing it out again vs looking it up...and typing won.

When I was a Junior in high school, I went to a private school and we received religious instruction as well. Our Junior year religion class was to cover "morality and social justice" and the teacher had devised a nation simulation game to force the class to work together to solve a problem. There were 5 nations, the Church and a UNalike. The nation my group received was called "Transnapa"

Being one of only two people in the group who cared about the game, I took charge of the nation, and we immediately had a Communist "revolution" so as to ally with a friend of mines nation, Centrifica. Of course, any nation that has a Communist revolution must end with "-stan", and so Transnapastan was born.

So where did the I come from?

Flash forward to my senior year, when my friend (the same guy who had Centrifica, found this neat nation simulation game online called NationStates. So I figure "Hell, I have a name already let me just type this in here."and click submit.

Looking at that nation page for the first time, I saw "Transnapastain" and thought "Oh shit, I typo'd!"

Thats right, even my frickin nation name is a typo.

After that it just kind of stuck.

You could say it left a stain on your nation's name, amirite

[Gigaverse]

Is still Gigaverse, the name of the huge interstellar empire in my manga project that takes 'Earth as center of Universe' to the extreme: make it literal.

A side nickname is Darth Rhinitis, implying my family's heritage of having nose sickness.

Oh my goodness.

Trans was meant to do typos. :p

That's rather high-tech stuff you got there. Next you're finding an apple and claiming that it's the best computer in the world.

So how did the alcohol get produced?....

[Arkolon]

Arkolon is new. I mostly use 5ilence, 5enator, or, since I was 12, iGuy. I also like the nickname "sic" on IRC.

[Verbluffen III]

H2ORYDER (ps3)

Verbluffen (national names)

[Reath]

I use Handsome Corpse.
Not quite sure how, or why, I came up with it, but I still like it now, about 2 years later, and it just stuck.

[East Vlaricstan]

I am know as firsal everywhere else except NS. Because I simply could not think of a name which had firsal in it and not be about firs.

Wait... you're iGuy? And you use "sic" on IRC?

If you look at my previous posts in this thread, then I think we'll know that we've known each other for... quite some time.

By logic of "I wanna be The Guy", fruits kill you.

Oh my god, no way! JC! You're the one who framed me for multi-accounting ;_; wasn't very nice, as some people still believe it. But anyway, that is a really big coincidence. I never knew we played two of the same online games together, all this time...

[Grand Britannia]

Most of the time is LoliValkyria.

[Rosov]

I usually roll with "Holland" which was an English surname that I had to use for a clan I used to be in. I also go by "AlphaCat" and "CommissarCat"

http://steamcommunity.com/id/Alphacat/

I also use whatever happens to by my username on there.

3rd Edit: Feel free to add me, if you have any of the same games and might want to play them, sometime.

[Sciongrad]

I usually use Green Babushka, the origins of which I can't really remember. But I use it for almost everything.

[Navajo Land]

I have other usernames on other sites.

On Muzy.com (which is a site where people can take pictures, paint, and music and film on and show it to others online) I have the username of LouisTheFox, after a made up Sonic character I made up, and Louis is my first name in real life.

On BYOND (2d online), I have the username BlackShadowDragon.

Google Chrome, my user name is Louis Morrell.

[New Libertarian States]

I just go by "The Potato God" on steam, "Potato Salad" on Xbox Live.

[Ponderosa]

Most of my accounts are my [firstname][lastname]468. But NS is more anonymous than most of my accounts, so I chose "Ponderosa" because there's a ton of them in my area and it sounded okay.

[Merriwhether]

In most games and sites I go by XxShadowWatchxX, however for some certain games the X's are considered a clan tag so I can't use that specific part of the username. My only real uses for it currently are Steam, World in Conflict and fanfiction.net.
I originally got it from Empire: Total War, the English Black Watch units. I just added the x brackets and changed Black to Shadow for originality.

[Popyi1]

Back when I made my first account on the interwebs waaay back, I tried to spell pop-eye from the pop-eye the sailor cartoons that I watched re-runs of. Since my typing was as elegant as a rhino, I spelled "popyi". Still that was taken, so I added a "1" to the end, used it ever since :'D
