I've switched my AOL Screen Name to something more general, since I don't strictly use my AIM for playing D&D with the rest of you geeky bastards. SpusWidgetwatch was an EQOA char name and I haven't played that in about a year, so I'm moving on.
Wheresmy5bucks is my new name, matching my yahoo e-mail, and the name I use on a few other online locations.

Y'know, you can link screennames in AIM with just a few steps, so you'll be online with both. >_> Just sayin', you don't have to completely drop one.

Hmm...didn't notice that. Well you guys can still use the other one then.
Talking to other people such as people in other little things I do that aren't D&D always came off as geeky using "SpusWidgetwatch". Geekier than I hoped to be.

That really doesn't seem that geeky to me. I mean, how would they know?
I use Muk1000. A lot of people used to play Pokemon. I'm sure more people see my name and think "GEEK" than your seemingly random set of names.

May as well stick with the change. Geekiness doesn't matter much IMO, but accessability does, and Wheresmy5bucks is much easier for people to remember how to spell than SpusWidgetwatch.
I've more or less switched from vctr113062 to DemonLei (or Sil Victar on the upstairs computer) for the same reason.

At least people don't see your name and think of literary references that aren't there.

Take the reference, just tell them thier wrong every time they guess, and if you just tell them, they won't get it anyway.
It's better than the truth.
You're an obsessive dracophile and you just used your birth year.
