8BitWalugi: Was meant to be 8BitWaluigi, but I cut out 1 'i' so it'd fit on my DS.

Signature: My gamercard. Again, it's meant to be 8BitWalugi, but you can't have a number at the beginning, so I picked 'B' because it looks like an '8' from afar. Also, when I made my account, I had gotten used to the lack of the 'i'

Avatar: It's an 8Bit Waluigi. What more can I say?
Can we have a Waluigi Time over here?
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

My username was chosen back in 1994 when I used Prodigy to connect to the internet and I use the same screen name all over the internet to this day.

The name is from a song called "Hey Suburbia" by a punk band Screeching Weasel, I liked the song and went with it. It's funny I'm actually going to see Screeching Weasel tonight in Philly, they NEVER tour...

"Hey Suburbia":

Username: Well my name if you dont already know is Derek Bortz. Bortz is a pretty cool last name if i do say so myself. I get alot of iterations of Bortz as a nick name. I get called lots of things like Bortz, Bortzy, D Bortz, Da Bortz, Dabortzy, and the one i like the most is Bortzanator. So thats were that comes from.

Avatar: its a chibi version of the main character in a manga id like to write someday. Its Captain Inferno loosely based off me.

The sig i believe is non existant at the moment. I usually make a simple one to show what game im currently addicted to. Some turn out pretty cool.
EDIT jk bout the sig. Right no its the bar tender from FFTA one of the games in my top 10 list. i like the tavern alot. The bar keep it the boss too.

Username: I have always been tall an skinny with long arms and legs so I have had the nick name Mantis for as long as I can remember. '41' ws just a random number used when I joined, Mantis and several variants were already taken.

Signature: I had just changed other bits of my profile over to a Death Note style theme, one of my favorite animes. I only had MSpaint and Infranview and was trying to do my username in a death note style text seen in the opening. I failed trying to replicate the actually text and ended up with the result below.

Avatar: I have had a few suss avatars including Jessica Rabbit (who I still think is hot despite criticism from other members). I have finaly settled on 'Light' after finding the black and white picture on google.

Username: Thug is my first and second names abbreviated, Tommy and Hugh, 413 is a date special to me. When joined together you get Thug413, so I added the L and f and originally, a Y and 0.

Signature: My sig was created by an ex mod of the forum called D2, who was only like 12 or so at the time. He did a great job.. all I said was 'I like Metroid'.

Avatar: I have only recently used this avatar, it is a portrait of the greatest summon ever imo, from FFX, Yojimbo!
This Aeon was awesome as you had to pay him to attack and I beat the endgame boss in 1 hit after paying Yojimbo 500,000 GIL.
My usual avatar created by ex staffer JPH is over 110 frames of animation and is of Jean Reno in his 1994 role as 'Léon' or 'Leon: The Professional'. You may also know him from Onimusha 3:

'Overman' from the german, 'Ubermensch', which is a philosophical concept of Friedrich Nietzsche. And '1977' is my year of birth....ewwwwww. No sig as of yet, but on the lookout for something cool.
