I wanted something that sounded cool and went with my canine bias.

anthro + guy + 101

anthro- for anthropomorphic
guy- for me knowing that I'm a human (and to point out to people that I'm a male) and
-101 because I was thinking about 101 Dalmatians at the time. I swear they have this thread in every forum.

I usually go with Ace957, but i noticed this forum wasnt big enough to where you have to use numbers, so i randomly thought up a random username. true story.

I wanted something different than I usually have (somehow I keep making screenames based on food, or Latin words or phrases), and I was at the time thinking a lot about Star Wars and Magic the Gathering. The Sunburst mechanic is one of my favourite mechanics conceptionally in the game, and because of the Star Wars thing I decided to attach "senator" to it.

No, he referenced to an episode of South Park which credited the Simpson's for doing everything first.

I honestly don't remember anymore, I first used it way back late 2006 or early 2007 on this online game called club penguin.(yes, i used to play that, all the way to mid/late 2007 :P) I think it was just random, I came up with the capital C(ReCreate instead of Recreate) at about mid to late 2008 or so. But the only way I can remember of coming up with the name is just random, a random word.

Hey well look at that!
Yeah, well it wasn't exactly first try. It was more like close eyes and press 5 keys. If you look at the key board we both pressed keys on either side:
Laxan:
L;- Far right
A;- Far left
X;- Far left
A;- Far left
N;- Far right

So it's not like going hdgh;dh;ildfl
More like akwosi.

Well that is likely the last you'll see of it. I am pretty sure the creator quit maybe due to not having many viewers.
