Been asked countless times, but there's lots of new faces
that I'm curious about. How'd you come up with your name?

Mine is... Aphex... with an O... the X changed to a CKS. I
didn't plan on using this name for more than a post or two
long ago, but almost 6000 later and I'm using my poorly
thought out name... but I'm fond of it now!

contrary to popular (ignorant) beliefs, Zeus is merely my
cats name.

I too only posted expecting only to get my question answered
about afx, and thats it, but then i was sucked into this!

My name came from when I was a little kid (4 or 5, maybe)
and I found a spoon in my room, so I drew a big happy face
on it, with a permanent marker, and called it Mr. Spoony.

A few years back, I found it again, and made my email
mr_spoony69@hotmail.com. That got kinda old, it its evolved
into "spoonz" or "zeSpoon"

Yep.

pomme de terre: french for potato.

litteral translation: apple of the ground

this is the name i go by when i perform my music. i think it
fits my sound... i.e. sounds like it might be something
fancy, but it's just a potato, all starchy and shit.. with
dirt all over it.

Mine is backwards braindance...due to the fact that when I
get bored listening to music forwards, I reverse it and
listen to it backwards.

'uzim' means 'vampire ghost sailing on a drakkar on a sea of
blood, when the weather is foggy and the birds turning into
giant bees, to destroy the human civilisation' in venusian.

Zeus is sound, I think it is unfair the way people always
have a go at him. If more people were like Zeus then maybe
this board, and even this world would be a better place.

Actually, Ophecks has complimented me in the past about my

Yes, you're right - I DO have an internet crush on matthew -
he's so sexy and personable, as I'm sure you'll agree.

Zeus is one of the best posters, there must be something I'm
missing... some unknown reason why he takes so much shit.
Boggles the mind...

And yeah, Outside_Ninja is a great username, reminds me of
some Ninja hiding in the wilderness, up in a tree waiting to
jump some helpless family and steal their picnic supplies. A
ninja that annoys people, but doesn't kill them like ninjas
are supposed to do. An ''Outside Ninja'', doing his own
thing.

I would never slag you off! That's just what your user name
brings up in my mind, it's very vivid. ''AFXnumb'' makes me
think of somebody typing on the messageboard but then
getting worried because they can't feel their arms.

not look like a mean ass..I would love to talk to you other

Cowardly? Such a term is unapplicable on the Internet. It's

replied because he wrote "(ignorant)" - it was a giggle,

You're too paranoid! Yeah, I like it because it brings up
such a weird image. An annoying ninja, outcast from the
normal ninjas and having to do things outside of them, but
all he can REALLY do is be annoying and a humorous
cariciture of the REAL badass ninjas.

And I hate AIM, but I AM on it sometimes... revolverjgw82...
I usually use MSN messenger, AIM tends so mess up on me
alot, gotta get that checked out. And I'm usually only on
MSN really late, for that I'm revolverjgw@hotmail.com.

Doesn't matter what your name means, that's what it means to
me, and only my opinion is important.

And Zeus, nope I ain't on it... I never am this early. I've
got shit to do right now and I don't like having convos I
can't give my attention to! I should be on later though. See
you online sometime (eventually!).

mine is meant to show the duality in everything and everyone

I am a gemini, most of the time like 99% i am extremely laid
back and easy going bu then there is always two sides to
every coin and that is the other 1% is extremely hatefull
and aggressive, can't keep it bottled up all the time.

so EVOL = LOVE. it all depends on your outlook and they way
you interpret things. it is up to you wether or not you

sometimes bad.

same here, EXACTLY! my name is just something I thought up

Zephyr is a reference to a giant hawk in ancient greek (i
think) or roman mythology. Twin is just borrowed from mr.
James. :) I wasn't impressed with my name for a while but it
has grown on me a lot.

In the movie/game Blade Runner there's a replicant series
called Nexus and a Nexus 6 is the 6th version of this kind.

I've watched the movie a couple of times, but more
importand, I've played the game thousands of times. Over and
over again. And the Nexus 6es are very important characters
in the game so... that's pretty much where I've got the name
from.
It's also my artist name now...
