Pretty basic here.
My first name is Mike and my last name starts with Batt...

Anyway 13a77 looks like Batt when pushed together (and squinting and a bit slooshed) soooo...

M=Mike
13a77=batt

or

MBatt

The avatar is one of the Aquabats a music group. No real reason and for some reason i didnt see the bat conection before writing this (which may explain why I suck at ARG solves).

My name, uninterestingly enough, is from the character The Kraken in the comic book Umbrella Academy. I kind of wanted a different username for this site, because I have a main username that I use for everything, and I felt that I should be more unique.
And my avatar is a not-so-subtle reference to my obsession with Lost.

I've used swish as a nickname on the internet for ages, first came up with it for the first email account I ever created. Has to do with comic book sound effects, something heard but not seen, something fast - that is what I thought email was, I guess. There were no SMS or chats back then, not that I knew of. And also I'm born in very 'airy' astrological circumstances. I believe change is the true nature of things (of Dao) so it had to be moving air, wind...

My avatar is a picture of me in the hairstyle I was inspired to get from V for Vendetta and Fight Club. (I've always used to have really long hair, my mother almost had an heart attack when she found me in bed that morning with a shaven head.) Now it has all grown back out, so this was some years ago. It works as an avatar because it represents me well (since it is me) but at the same time I don't think anyone would recognize me IRL from that photo. Also it reminds me of a time when I tried to live out my dreams in my actual life instead of just in a alternate reality. ...Ahh, to be young and reckless again...

My signature is something Evey says to V in V for Vendetta, something true to my father too.

I've been using 'parth2024' since ages, ever since my first e-mail account. Parth is my first name, and I just seem to havea fancy for the number 8, so I broke it to pieces and came up with 2024 (2+0+2+4=8 ).

My avatar is due to my obsession with the ARG, 39 Clues.

Well, while I'd browsed the forums before, I'd never actually participated until I decided to try my hand as a PM. I thought, "what would be a good name for a puppetmaster?", and then was surprised to learn that Geppetto wasn't already taken! Very Happy

Nothing all too special about my nick.

Dominic is my real name, 1978 is my year of birth.

The avatar is my own eye edited in Photoshop and was used as a morse puzzle in TSO. (After which I started using it as an avatar).
