Back when I was a wee lad, I played a game called Urban Terror. At the time I played with the nickname "TheFootClanRULES!". I noticed that many of the players that I played with and against had nicknames that was supposed to be cool and contained words like "DEATH", "DOOM" or "SLAYER". I thought that these names was pretty cheesy and in bad taste, so to rebel against these deathdoomslayers I went the opposite direction and chose the name CuddlyKitten. I noticed those times when I was on a roll that people got upset because someone with such a non-badass alias was killing them over and over. And because of that, I've just stuck with the name.

It was Christmas day, I was around 9 years old when I received an Xbox 360!!! I didn't know how to work it so my brother helped me, he asked "what do you want your name to be" and I responded, "I want it to be Evil MrMuffinz!!!" I don't know where it came from to this day

When I studied English at university, we had to discuss our assignments and essays in internet forums. I once finished a comment with "toodles" to signify the end of it. When I got the response it started with "Hi Toodles"

I thought it had a nice happy ring to it, and it was a lot better than Jerome_539 which I went with before. Cos I Iove 'Three Men in a Boat' by Jerome K. Jerome and 539 is a complicated in-joke.

Earned "kleptomaniac" as a nickname in high school, which I transformed into "K1eptomaniaK," since "KleptomaniaK" wasn't available on XBL for whatever fucking reason.

Carried it over to Steam, then realized nobody could pronounce it correctly. Around this time I watched a little bit too much AutoAim, and I really liked Jh's name, so I chopped it to just KL. Added dots for good measure.

On forums Kaeyel because periods aren't allowed in forum names and two characters is too short.

I'm "Mech" right now since I like Sami in Advance Wars and Mech units are baller.

Spring begins with my grandmother's death
her end impending, new life begins
budding leaves signal her last breath
she says "wait for the leaves of orange and red,
when they fall ill be with you again"
Rising from the fallen leaves,
a new name is born on Halloween

A nickname my friends gave me in high school.

I didn't like it. I wanted to make sure everyone knew that.

It backfired.

i used to read a lot (I mean 3+ hours a day probably) as a little kid

i really liked the edge chronicles and still do. in that series "stormphrax" is a revered substance that weighs next to nothing in the light, but a thimbleful weighs more than a thousand ironwood trees in absolute darkness (it has a natural sciences vibe). "phraxdust" is stormphrax turned to powder at the exact moment of twilight, and it purifies large volumes of water in an instant.

also it's super nice phonetically

Parents were super religious and believed all kinds of crazy shit, think Ancient Aliens. Despite all the crazy shit they believed and talked about, they were always violently against the rapture as biblical truth. I put a 4 in it as kind of a throwback to the old net.
