OT:Your user name

[OutOfTheCube]

It's an expression to say "think out of the box".

I took that saying to the next dimension.

[Slava]

Mines just an old (basically defunct) nickname. Someone thought that I played like Slava Kozlov and we share a first name...nothing to crazy.

I have been eagerly awaiting Cerebral to share his story here...how exactly an oilers fan gets that handle is beyond me!

[Resolute 14]

Irony is my guess.

I knew that from my kids. I was reading one of the threads, with them looking over my shoulder and they both cracked up when they saw your name. They love it.

[Displaced Flames fan]

I became a Flames fan living in Montana and watching the old 2 & 7 broadcasts on the Lethbridge station (is that 2 or 7?) that we used to get on cable in the Flathead.

Then I moved...and became displaced.

If I ever move back I will have to change my name.

[notoepik]

Maybe soon Dis The Flathead needs more Flames fans!

no toe pik--from my girls, they didn't want figure skates, they wanted hockey skates.

[rubecube]

One of my stoner friends thought she was being clever when we were sitting in my buddy's car one day (think I was about 16 at the time). She started calling me a rube and then it somehow escalated from there. Signed up for something on the internet a few weeks later and that came to mind. Been using it ever since, mainly because it's easier to just try to remember one username.

[J pold]

J is for Jordon (no not that Jordon)

pold is Leopold minus the Leo

[Cerebral]

Cerebral was the name of an old IDM musician I used to listen to many years back (way back when Audiogalaxy was the way to snag free music). He essentially made all of his music on a laptop but I still really enjoyed a lot of it - it kind of had a post-rock feel to it and I'm still trying to find a lot of his old songs.

I made the jump from Cerebral to Mogwai/Sigur Ros and that consequently led to me finding a whole bunch of amazing bands that essentially guided my future music tendencies.

I needed a name to register for Heat.net (I used to play Quake 2 online quite a bit) and it was the first thing that came to mind. That was probably back in 1998 or 1999 and I've stuck with it since then.

[evman150]

My name is Evan.

When creating my first hotmail account in 1998 at 12 years old I thought "evman" was a cool play on my name, but of course evman@hotmail.com was taken, so I added my favourite number, 15. But evman15@hotmail.com was taken too, so I added a zero. Then I used evman150 for everything for a few years, including my CP name in 2002. More recently I have grown up into evank15, which is my name on 2+2 (other major board I post on).

[HalifaxDrunk]

I'm from Halifax and I love beer!

[VANFLAMESFAN]

I'm a Flames Fan that lives in Vancouver. Technically, North Vancouver, but NORTHVANFLAMESFAN was just a little too long. Not sure why I went with all capitals, but I like it, it stands out.

[MagicallyAdept]

MagicallyAdept = Well it sounds good and i would like to believe i have magic powers.
