I’ve decided that I’m going to subscribe to this board, but I need a better screename (this one having been chosen so I could participate in one specific thread). So lets brainstorm. To start you off, consider the following: **Moonpony** **Carbonara** **Stanley Morgan** **Timothy, oh leery!** **Paradox’s liar** ---

Are you male or female? If female, I think **Crumpet Strumpet** would be excellent. If you’re a dude, how about **Earl Grey**? ---

I was recently thinking of the book [_Go Ask Alice_](http://www.snopes.com/language/literary/askalice.asp) and realized that by keeping the letters of the title in order, the phrase could be recast as **[Goa](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goa) [Ska](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ska) [Lice](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lice)**. So that’s the user name I’ll be suggesting in these threads until someone takes me up on the suggestion. ---

While I love Captain Jetpack, I’d suggest any of the [names](http://www.mst3kinfo.com/ward_e/List820.html) from the famous [MST3K episode](http://www.tv.com/mystery-science-theater-3000/space-mutiny/episode/47540/summary.html) “Space Mutiny” “Big McLargehuge” is my favorite.

You already have a name with an account, so the you’ll have to ask TubaDiva to change the name for you. You can’t just sign up under a different name. I think your current name is a good one for this board, so maybe wait to change it. You won’t get to change it in a month again if you don’t like the new one.
