"the Jim" may look alright, but only in that format.

Maybe I used the wrong word, but I meant as "the Jim" - not "The Jim" or "the jim"

Well, back at RZ (where i picked this name) i couldn't just call myself Rayman4, so i called myself Rayman4_121, because i had to "pick a number". And then i had the most unoriginal username in username history. When i joined PC, i called myself R4_121, to make it sound cooler. But sadly, it's still lame. I think i'm gonna change it.
I think R4_121 souns better than El Dango.

Well. I'm a Mr. Dark crazy. Always have been. Ever since I saw that very first image of him in "Rayman Mr. Dark no Wana" he's been one of my most favorite video game characters/villains. So, I named myself "Mr. Dark" and why I didn't add numbers or whatever to the name is because no one even had the name yet, and I'll be known as the very first Mr. Dark on PC/RZ ever. (I'm the first Mr. Dark on PC, right? Cause I am on RZ.)

Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation-but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For if you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba, Father." The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. Now if we are children, then we are heirs, heirs of God and co-heirs of Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

For most of you who've been here for a while, you know I called myself gojaromeiginla, or GJI. Some of you still refer to me as such, lol. Anyway, I chose that because at the time, I was an insane fan of the Calgary Flames. I still am, but not to that extent anyway. Jarome Iginla is the Flames' top player, and I worked his name into my user name. It became what I used all over the internet. However, after a while, the novelty of the name wore off, and I needed something different. I chose "Feanaro Surion" simply because it's actually my real name in Elvish. I think it looks awesome and sounds awesome, so I just decided to use it as my internet name. There you have the story of my usernames.

Actually you're not the first Mr. Dark on RZ, when did you assume that? We had one in the old forums.

Anyway, I find it weird for someone to have just a character's name as a nickname, and even if I was a huge Mr Dark fan, I'd use a different name :wink:

I was going to go with "Mr. Dark_279", but, eh, it doesn't look right.
