I'll start with myself:
"Ozark": I've used that for ~4 years now, has no meaning that I know of. It's something I first saw on a sweatshirt that I think is kinda cool and somewhat unique. It turns out it's a brand of camping/hiking gear, and that shirt is a product of Ozark brand.
"PuzzzJuice": Something I came up with as I joined you guys. It's just something that "sounds half sexual, half disease like, half unknown" (quoted from MSN log with Forsy). I think that's the best way to describe it. :smoke:
Now let's hear about yours pwn0rs ;)

"Stream" is the name of an insane acoustic guitar solo by Tim Reynolds. I was about to pub locked box one day, and was trying to think up an alias, I just so happened to be on that song and it's stuck for the past 8/9 months.
I also use "streamline/streamlined" from time to time but that has no real signifigace other than sounding cool.

Mine was from Archie Comics. My favorite character, Jughead, had a real name that was Forsythe P. Jones.
I chose it around 1997? But other people have called me that only since 1999. Either way, that's a friggin' long time.

Ozark is also a chain of mountains in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Kansas
"Drak"- I used to be a huge RPG guy. I lived for Squaresoft. So for every game I chose my RPG name, which was Drak. Unfortunatelly, I realize everyone has poor language skills and pronounces it differently
"The Village Idiot" - When I decided to join a clan in ET, I realized that if no one can pronounce my name the same, then vent could be confusing, so I needed a new one. I wanted it to be funny, so I chose this. It's been about 1 1/2 years now since I've had it. The only thing that stinks about it, is I cant change it, because I'll go from barely known, to unknown. I guess since I think I'm the only Village Idiot in ET comp, it's a good name though.

Hehe :D
Well mine... is pretty self explanatory :P
Nah, actually I was pubbing one day and I saw this guy with the name "El Guapo" (The Handsome" and I thought it was pretty funny... so I decided to play with his head a little by using "El Sexy" (not THAT head :o)... and so it just stuck with me while I pubbed. I didn't think about keeping it, since it was just a pubbing name while I was clanless... but meh, it stuck.
lol^
YXee - Dont really remember how i got this.... but it was way back in the RA2/YR days
det0x - I use this name for pretty obvious reasons :D Ive been using this ever since i started playing ET, even before i knew there was an ffx4 detox :P ... I later changed it to det0ks because homos kept confusing me for the ffx4 detox
