How did you come up with your user name?

Recommended Posts

My real name is Christopher, so when I first met my then to be sister-in-law she hilariously called me Biggins. Now use it on forums as it is the only nickname I ever had.

My UN is from the name I gave to my 1:1 pickup for the show scene when I jacked up the suspension, monster truck style! I use it most places online along with my vehicle reg plate H1 7RUC which reads HI TRUC(K), obviously.

Behemoth means Huge Creature and is from greek mythology, I think? Its also used a lot in the sci-fi and fantasy books that I read a lot of, for monsters, robots etc.

I needed a cool name that was easy to remember and was still kinda catchy. Lookin round my Den, I spy my Vanessa's Lunch box high up on the shelf and it is one of my favorite tamiyas so it absolutley ROCS in my opinion. There you go... Lunch ROCS. Kinda flows off the tongue quite easily.

Simple as this: My first name is Max and I love Hilux'es so MaxHilux. But maybe MaXC would be as good since XC's are also super cars!

6 or 7 years ago I was watching David Letterman with a couple of my friends. In that night's top 10 list, "top 10 ways to make tennis more exciting," the number one answer was "more splosions." The next day I needed to think of a handle in a paintball game. Sploder was born from that. unfortunately, nobody can spell or pronounce sploder, so I had to add an a. Now I'm sploader.

Well, technical.burp is my nickname because I liked the weird sounds from a uK based d&b dj and producer called technical itch or tech itch.

Secondly, playing with Tamiya stuff has a lot to do with technical stuff and so I thought this would be a fine choice. The idea to call me "burp" instead of "itch" was because itch would have been a too obvious copy of technical.itch. When reading the old tamiya rc guide book from 1986, I saw a photo of a guy with a beer can on the last page and well, what happens when you have too many beers? You burb! Another explanation why I use burb or burp is that in bavaria young boys are called bub. So I am still a technical Bub. ;-)
