I'm really glad to be me again, but I really liked my alt name too. Kefka has good taste. :allears:

Nothing against y'all that enjoyed it, but I'm staying well away if this happens again any time soon.

I will admit to getting quite a few laughs out of the changed names, though.

Indeed! Pseudo really made things easier for a lot of us, and we could still enjoy the namechanges without getting confused :allears:

(FYI, I'm in the "please give me my old name back" camp :v: )

I've had fun as a pony, but I actually think I'll go back to my original "In West Fillydelphia" after all this.

Some of the people who didn't even post much showed up just to get their names changed.

The most extreme case being Professor Freaksworth. He registered in 2011, but never made a single post until few days ago, and it was so he can get a new name :gotcha:

That was fun, even if I got tired of my own gimmick. I enjoyed seeing all of the crazy names and what stuff people would post.

Captain Kirk/Priceline Negotiator was just about my favorite, though.

Good to have my old name back, but it was time to retire the 'Pegasis' and the Wheel of Morality makes a good successor.

I am going to miss my ridiculous custom title.

Also, for those who don't know, it was from a poem about the mint julep. Here it is as it should be recited. By an old school bartender while making a mint julep:

I didn't have any time to post the last few days but all the new names were pretty amazing, even moreso whenever a user went all the way and changed everything else, too. What a crazy week, well done Kefka and everyone else who made this possible :golfclop:
