My user name was created before I spent much time on forums and I didn't even think about being a little creative. Perhaps I'll get it changed and pretend I'm a newbie and ask all sorts of questions that have been discussed at length before (not that anything is wrong with that - we've all been there )

My initials are T.T. A mate of mine changed the full stops into O and started calling me TOTO. The 111 happened years ago when I first needed a username and had to extend to TOTO111.
TT993 (don't know if available) would have been great here but out of habit I stuck with what I would remember.

The orange Jagermeister RSR in my signature explains it all. Had a lot of fun with that car.

Showing my age a bit here.... Back in the early 90's I worked for a telecom company so was one of the early-early adopters of the the "internet"... Being so early, jscott was my standard username and never had a problem with it already being taken... Then came yahoo... they grew so fast I could not get jscott, jscott1, or jscott2 so I just grabbed a number out of the air.... and 82 has stuck ever since....

Not exactly interesting, but you asked.....

Ok, I figured this would come up eventually. Since both of my boys and I are
into the whole Porsche thing I decided to use the user name they sign on as
on there X-Box live. The R and C is both of there first initials and the Double
as they call it is 'Double Trouble' .
(I had to ask them myself what it all stood for)
