nvogel ETA: I noticed the omission of the first four letters, so figured I’d insert them. In my attempt to retype, I accidentally posted. Oh well, at least I got the final six letters correct. ---

meanoldlady Booyah! Then I spelled my first name too, and got it. My name is only three letters, but still, pretty pleased as I was certain I’d screw this up. My nose isn’t particularly pointy. ---

Let me give this a try, I’m using a wireless keyboard (on my couch, so no monitor issues), and bring keyboard up to my nose…Luckily an ’ doesn’t require a shift. So here I go: Hirka T’Bawa Wow, I did it! ---

I’m not even going to try - for the first letter alone I need: Alt-Shift (change to Czech) Shift-= (for the ˇ) Shift-s (for the capital s) It gets easier after that. ---

3i3eolp0yhiuj …I suck. (I’m using a netbook, for what it’s worth). And I can see some _vague_ relationship to what I was attempting to type, if I look hard enough. I even had two, two-letter winning streaks! 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/forum-game-type-your-nickname-with-your-nose/642562.md?page=2)
