My username is a song and a concept by my favorite funk band called Slave. I don't like the song though.



I am a Nintendo fanatic.

Believe it or not, I am actually Princess Peach.



Back when I was like 13, joining Gamepro in 2001, I basically settled on a combination of essentially my two favorite things at the time: Metallica + Gamecube = MetalliCube. I then joined this site when Gamepro was overrun by trolls and eventually (thankfully) dismantled, bringing over that same name, recently taking a couple year hiatus from here.. Coming back just recently as my more cynical, jaded gamer self, hence the DARTHMetalliCube..

Derived from a nickname my mother had for me once.

She called me "Gameboy", because I was a boy that played games and obviously refering to the Nintendo handheld. Crudely translated, in Dutch that would be "Speeljongen", or something like that, but since I'm a man now, and because it sounds better as if it was a real name, I changed it to "Speelman".

I then stylized it with the period, making it "S. Peelman". This comes from Donald Duck comics basically, because in the Dutch version of those, a lot of (side-)characters have names where their initials combined with their last names make up a real word that's related to their character or profession or whatever. I thought that was funny.

I use the nickname S.Peelman for a lot of things, but also use the name L.Oopmans sometimes. Which I purposely made to be like S.Peelman. As a word this would translate to "Walkman", but I would be referencing a hobby of mine and not the Sony music player.



I work at a post office. Also, I'm a big Buckethead fan. Listen to the song that I'm named after if you want to be creeped out.

My username comes from a character I created on a whim on Metal Gear Online (the 2008 one). I first gave my character a nerdy Asian face and a whiny, rookie-ish voice. And the name just randomly came. And the rest is history.

For realsies?

 

... are the rumours about you and Bowser true?



Hmm, pie.

Vodacixi is an anagram of a nickname my friends put to me with an added "X" (yes, like Organization XIII in Kingdom Hearts). As for the "2.0"... I had an account with the same username a while ago. But something happened to this site some months ago. I couldn't log in, if I tried to reset my password I would not recieve an email... and if I tried to make a new account, I wouldn't recieve the activation email either. So I just left this place.

But one day I tried just for curiosity to create a new account with gmail instead of outlook, which is the one I used in the past. It worked. And since I liked my original username, I named myself Vodacixi 2.0.



Room 215 "Wish"

I chose my username and profile picture from something I liked.  Boba Fett has always been one of my all-time favorite fictional characters.  I had his action figure from the Droids cartoon when I was little (earliest Boba Fett figure I remember owning, I have many more since then): 

had the Marvel comics adaptation of Empire Strikes Back, poster on my wall, stood on a line that stretched around to the back of the theater to see "Return of the Jedi" (only to see him ignominiously launched into the Sarlaac Pit!), I had the "Battle at the Sarlacc Pit" board game: 

Basically, I was a Boba Fett fanatic before "Respect the Fett" permeated pop culture.  I can remember searching for Boba Fett websites on Yahoo in 1995 when only 3 results would come up.  A google search today brings up 14,300,000 results.

Anyway, Boba Fett wore Mandalorian battle armor from Mandalore, to which I added the last two digits of my birth year to arrive at my username:  Mandalore76.

If you want to get your old account back, talk with Trucks. Mhere were a lot of users that had the same problem you had, and Trucks was able to find a way to fix it.
