    Imagine me as a eight year old. My username was originally going to be something like Mrgreen02 or Pickleman8, but then I watched an episode of Pokemon. (It's getting dumber these days) That's how Pokemon got in my head and my username became pokemaster08.
    Pokemon + Master + 08 (8 years old/ It was kind of my lucky number)

    My nickname comes from the first gun I ever shot. Its my father's Makarov pistol with a silencer (therefore "Silenced") and he carved the word "terror" in the handle (therefore "Terror"). Its not the most amazing story but there you go :D

    Delphi operation: trunc(Pi*100). :D
    Seriously, Pi.

    I used 314 (or derivates with more digits if 314 is already taken) for many games so far, but I think Minecraft was the first one. April 2011. :D
    My favourite game of all times was Gameglobe where I used 31415 as nickname. :)

    *Feels special for having an epicly short nick*

    I'm a Harry Belafonte fan and there is a song he sings called Zombie Jamboree. I also love zombie movies and shows so it fits.

    I have a friend with a really nice username and I really wanted a nice one too. I like the proper capitalization and the absence of numbers as well as underscores. (friend is DivineMedicus)

    As a 12 year old I thought the name "Deathmaster" was cool, so that is my ign for CoC, then I realized how juvenile that is.

    When I advanced to a more strategic game called "Lords & Knights", I set my ign as "Perilous" because it sounded kinda cool.

    When I decided to get a minecraft account, I wanted something new. I didn't like "Perilous" or "Deathmaster" as they both lacked meaning. I thought of my friend, DivineMedicus, and wanted a really cool name like his. So I started thinking.

    I thought about it for a while and was in school when I thought of my username. We were studying what will happen in the near future with global warming. I decided the near future the the present day are similar, so I added "Modern". The next part is obvious, the future forecasts that global warming will bring peril, so I tried "ModernPeril"... it was taken. So I tried ModernPerils, and it worked.

    And that, my friends, is how I came upon my username.

    I'm a weird guy and Minecraft involves building. Thus, 'WeirdBuilder' was born.

    I was hoping it was short for 'Donkey Kong'..

    Perhaps the "max" comes from "maximum speed"? Like NASCAR?

    Its not exactly the most amazing story, but here goes.
    One day I bought Minecraft. It said "Choose a username." So, I thought about it (Side note: my first try was "Steve") Once I realized that all of the common names were chosen, I tried Unicorn. It was taken. I added Banana to it, but instead of stopping there, i put the first number that popped into my head, which happened to be 49. Maybe that's because I live in Wisconsin, close to Milwaukee, and the Brewer's number one pitcher was Yovanni Gallardo. (Number 49). At any rate, I then was approved with UnicornBanana49. And that's how I became who I am today.
    List of nooby user names that my friends have or that I've seen:
    cargav (Carter+Gavin, they're brothers)
    brandon3lee (Brandon Lee)
    BlockBros3 (Three brothers)
    Budderbros3 (Copied from BlockBros3)
