Current name - inspired by Xiao from Dark Cloud.
Name on the old forums - inspired by my mad skillz (heh) with the minotaur character in Gauntlet: Dark Legacy.

Note the PS2 theme. Oh well....

On so many other boards, I've gone by PezHed. Online friends started calling me Pezlie which is a combination of that and my name.

I dropped the Hed.

Despite the logical conclusion you may draw from my name, I am not, in fact, a wombat. I am, however, quite shiny. (In the more metaphorical sense of the word). On the old forums, I was eet yor py, but I wanted a name I could use everywhere, and not all forums are obsessed with pie. Thus, when the new forums launched, I chose a name that reflects both my total shinyness and my fascination with wombats.

ok lets se I like making original names some that can't be pronounced.
I wanted a germadic word like Eihnhander, but I didn't want to copy off of a game.
So Eih then something that sounded cool with it, too my ears, Eih-ger... basacly it.

Too bad, I already pronounce you name Ay-gur

Et cetera (etc) like et alia (et al) is two words. Remember, et means and.

I always wished I'd taken Latin. Spanish is more useful, though.

Its pronounced eye-ger close enough
alia: others/ some
Deus ex machina: god from the machine

Something happened on #RL and somehow I became Megatron4MonkeyX as opposed to StaticMforMonkeyX

Well, I explained my name on the old forums, but I still get questioned every now and then, so why not explain it again?

I'm a huge fan of Ghost in the Shell, mainly because of the cool philosophical questions it brings up. Stuff like whether or not machines can have their own ghosts. Don't ask, i still think it's whup ass.

Well, I was asking my friend Einham (not related in any way to Eihger, because Einham's probably been around a lot longer.) for copies of the new series, Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex.

He laughed, and said that I was just like the ending theme song. (We had been joking around earlier that day about how I need to get some lithium, because my mood was taking 180's all morning.)

The ending theme song was Lithium Flower.

I actually have a ton of nicknames, which is why this one also stuck. The lyrics of the song seem to describe me, according to friends online, and it was a cool song, so I shrugged, and said cool.

As it happened, a day or two later, I ended up signing up for the old forums, and needed a nick name.

I usually go as Princess Frodo, but I didn't want to that day, because I usually never have nick names for more than a year, and I've had that one a little over a year.

That, and Lithium Flower sounded cooler, because some D&D guys just shorten it to Lith!!!

Well, all in all, I like the song, even if Inner Complex is cooler, and say one with the show!!!
