Forums - General Discussion - Whats in a name/avatar?

So what's the deal with your name/avatar?

Where do they come from?  Why did pick them?  Any back story to them? etc

 Mine of course is CrashMan from MegaMan 2.  I am a huge fan of the MegaMan series on the NES (actually working on an original MegaMan game as a hobby at the moment)

MegaMan 2 is my favorite entry in the series, I think the levels are great and the music is particuarly amazing, especially when you consider its only 2 square waves, a triangle wave and a noise channel.

I got the avatar from a tileset sheet and resized it and added a little photoshop flare to spruce it up.



I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
