Mine is the name of a character from the webcomic Homestuck. Lord English is an indestructible, time-traveling demon who is summoned upon the destruction of a universe and then proceeds to travel back in time to an earlier point in its lifetime. Thus, if he exists in your universe, then by definition you can't outrun him or prevent his summoning, as he is already here. The concept of that is fascinating to me, for whatever reason.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of the Doctor?
Also, I'm 6'1". Almost all of the coats that I own belonged to dead people before I got them. And I own a dove that I creatively named 'Dove'. I add that just for curiosity's sake, of course.
Radnen = Andrew with w = r. It was a character I made in a game long ago (unreleased as it was bad) thought it was cool and just used that. Before that it was Feek, which I used as a name in games such as Animal Crossing, heh. I didn't like it as time went on.
The mezzo is pronounced like mezzanine, though.

And it had its own controller (which is really only usable for that one game).

Mooch, I actually thank you for being so active on the forums. Makes the entirety of the community and development more alive. So keep moochin'.
Anyway! My real name is Vincent, and I didn't make up my own nickname. Before I was on the internet, I was already messing around making music in Modplug Tracker. My uncle then suggested that I should have an artist name of sorts, and my (back then not yet) aunt suggested Da Vince. I liked that nickname and started using it on my first forum (though took the liberty of removing the space).DaVince is the only nickname I use, unless it's DaVince21 or just my regular name.
My full handle is NeoLogiX and use NEO on a forum if I can get away with it (ie, someone hasn't taken it before me, which pretty much only now happens if I set up the forum myself). It came to me in a car ride in 1997 and I fleshed it out to NeoLogiX EX Machina in 1999 to use as a "company" name for when I started offering development services professionally, right before I came up with my (current) handle "Apollolux," which came to me in a dream and is the current name of my "company."
I've met lots of people who have said it both ways, "mezz-o" and "met-so" so I make sure to define that, yes, it is "mezz-o". I always thought that mezzoforte and mezzosoprano were "mezz-o", but then I met people who pronounced it "met-so", so I figure it can be pronounced both ways.

(Then again, the alternative is some cheap finger-hurting Mad Catz controller.)Yeah, it works for all Saturn games, but the analog stick only works on NiGHTs, Sonic 3D Blast, and a couple fighter games (as far as I know). And for the games it does, you generally don't want full angle control. Lack of any fixed directional cues on analog stick doesn't really help in many games except NiGHTs.Although it is still a Sega controller, miles ahead of any 3rd party stuff I've ever seen, even if you can only use the D-pad.
Is that a reference to Nintendo's octagon? I friggin' love that thing.
