My name on the box / supporters list

Stabliser · 05-30-2012, 02:44 AM

So er, should I put my real name on the box, or my forum name? Its a dilemma.
If I put my real name none of you will know its me. (such a long list you might never find it anyway) If I use my forum name anyone outside the forums wont know its me. (and might not care anyway)
Could I put my real name followed by my forum name in brackets?

Anyone else pondering this?

I went with real name so I could brag to all my (non-forumite) friends. As to using both, I would guess space is at a premium.

Since it came from my banking account and jasperrdm does not have bank account, go with the real name.

Yep, do I show off to other SJ site users, or the people who know me in "real" life? Decisions, decisions... ;)

Since there seemed to be room, I went with

Douglas R (Bowser) Pearson

and left out all punctuation (like quotes around "Bowser") as I know this sometimes messes things up.

It's going to be pretty small, anyway . . . :)

I'm going with my real name. I don't really have an offline nickname, and it's pretty easy to deduce who I am anway. Plus, since my name's apparently going in the rulebook with a thank you, I might as well keep it the same on the box :)

I went with my real name. I thought about Jay "Buzzardo" Bryant, but I figured SJG wouldn't appreciate the consumption of valuable space.

I ended up going with my real name. I thought about putting in my screen name (as Bowser did) and probably would put it in now if given the chance, but I'm happy with Tom Bartkiewicz. It'll be easier to prove my involvement to the great grand kids when I pull out the box in 35 years to teach yet another generation.

I use the same forum name here as everywhere else, so D351 for me.

[INVASION OF PRIVACY] Just curious, but I'll bet there's a story behind "D351". Care to share??!? [/INVASION OF PRIVACY]
