I host a radio show on my campus on Fridays. Because I play power and progressive metal, and because I wasn't in a particularly creative mood at the tme, I named it The Power Hour. Hence.... ThePowerHour

NoobieOne is obviously Noobie One (one that is noobie) but it is also a reference to Newbie#1 which is a default name in one of the games i used to play. I got this name when i was new at SC1 after it has been out for 9 years so i called myself that but now its just fun

My name is one I've used since the days when I played WoW a while back... There was a funny post on the Paladin forums by a guy who was either 10 years old or had a supreme lack of understanding of the structure of a proper English sentence; I'm guessing it was his 3rd language...
The part really funny part about the whole post he made, was keyloggers were starting to pop up in forum posts everywhere- and since his post already had terrible English and a whole buncha links in it, it was a great place for the keyloggers to start.

The keyloggers took his thread, replaced the links with ones that gave lesser skilled netizens a keylogger, and were all about ret paladins... So, as a joke, I specced my paladin ret and had someone report my name so I could rename him to "Logginurkeyz"
So whenever I posted on the realm forums, it would say Logginurkeyz, show my spec as ret (this was many moons ago in the second iteration of the WoW forums) and I'd get a few laughs.

It ended up that most of my friends knew me by my paladin's name, so when I migrated over to SC2 I made my handle my paladin's name so my friends would recognize me. Besides, it's always funny when you hit paranoid people in the ladder or just someone with a sense of humor, and the either make jokes about me loggin their keys or just outright leave from paranoia (I've had this happen more times than I'd like to admit)...

This is a link (non-keylogging) to the wiki page that has the original non-keylogging links on them.

They're mostly crudely circled screenshots of him PvP'ing or badly done paint drawings which made his OP that much more hysterical...

My ID is a combination from the word Illumina, which was one of the best weapons in Final Fantasy 6, and Luminaire, the final spell of the hero in Chrono Trigger.

Illumina + Luminaire = Illuminaire

i don't use gamerboy5440 except for on forums but this one came from logic. I game a lot and I'm a guy. The numbers were a recommendation by some site because gamerboy was taken.

As for Xeon/Exleos (usual game id), I'm not really sure. Same with Sisame for female characters, they all came from random names blended together i guess. I seriously don't know.

My name is Sam,
My friends have given me the nicknames samsonite, slam, and slamsonite.
I was slamsonite in BW, but for SC2 I chose slam for no particular reason.

So exiting, I know.

My ID is a reference to the old days of gaming. Back when people would say "Holy crap, they broke 800 MHz with a processor.... What will they think of next," my buddies and I used to play Starcraft and mess around with this Japanese program called RPG Maker XP. In fact, I bet it still exists.... I'll add a link to it when I finish writing this post (I'm on my phone and I can't do tabbed browsing).

Anyway, in RPG Maker, you could create maps and equipment and triggers and such, basically building all the elements for your own game. Eventually, you would compile and play the game.

"Boundless" was the adjective that described the best weapon class in the RPG that I worked on for many hours with friends. I think our weapon classes went like this, iirc (in order of worst to best): Cursed < Crude < Adequate < Ample < Boundless.

Back in Supreme Commander, the top player (arguably), had the ID "Unconquerable". I wanted to pick something like that for my new ID in SupCom, since I was known as Nohtanhoj at the time. +5 interwebz for you if you can figure out why I picked the name "Nohtanhoj". I couldn't come up with anything good, and was going through my old RPG Maker files when I was cleaning out my old computer for sale. "Boundless" fit the bill for my new ID perfectly.

Edit: RPG Maker XP! It was shareware when I used it. http://www.rpgmakerweb.com/product.html?prod=xp
