I didn't get to vote (I missed it) but if I had I would've voted for you, Chestknight. Very original.

Oh. Do most people have two names here?

we had a silly name contest recently, so a lot of the names you see around the forum are only temporary. I've already changed mine back to normal, but some are still using their Christmas/Holiday names because of the contest.

Sort of.  It's a tradition to change one's regular username (such as Jade Knight) into a holiday-appropriate version (such as The Roasting Chestknight).  The goal is to come up with something clever and unique, but still recognizable to those who know you under your regular username.

EDIT: Loud G beat me to it.

Congrats, Jade! It's a good name. (Though I voted for Mr. Paper, myself. That name just made me laugh every time I saw it.)

I'm surprised Santooklaus got so many votes. Glad people liked it!

I almost couldn't choose who to vote for. There were four on there that I loved. I ended up voting for Ook, simply because I remember when I first saw the name, I busted up laughing and said, "That is clever!"....

Anyway, Congrats, Jade. That win was well-deserved.

I must say, Santooklas was pretty clever.

Thanks =). Was the only real goal I had.

I actually voted for you because I was immensely amused by the variation on your name. Very witty and clever.
