    Default Which Doper Am I?

    It seems that most other SDMB posters who have come over here have used the same username in both places, whereas I came up with a new one. So, how's about a puzzle. Can you guess what name I post under on the Dope?

    Here's some clues:
    • On the Dope, I am nowhere near as prolific a poster as I have been in my first couple of days on here. In fact, although I've been registered there since manhattan was a mod, I have less than 2,000 posts[/*:m:18j5v748]
    • I enjoyed myself on 'free-for-all weekend' in the Pit, starting several threads that produced some really interesting responses[/*:m:18j5v748]
    • I have, however, never been Pitted. I have started several Pits though; I Pitted an obnoxious witnesser within the last 6 months[/*:m:18j5v748]
    • There is one type of thread on the Dope that I participate in regularly[/*:m:18j5v748]
    • My name on the Dope, like my name here, has a musical link[/*:m:18j5v748]

    Please PM me your guesses, rather than posting them in the thread. At the end I'll post here who guessed correctly (and some of the funniest wrong guesses!).

    May I join the fun?

    On the Dope I have a username that's the opposite of my personality
    In political threads, people usually mistake my party affiliation
    I misuse a certain punctuation mark incessantly
    My favorite hobby is a frequent topic of disagreement that ends up in the Pit or GD nearly every time it's discussed

    Yeah, anyone who has a username that's different from their Doper one is welcome to join this thread (I guess its better than everyone starting their own!)

    Can I ask questions? I'm going to anyway, so you'd better say "Yes."!

    The Flamer - are you a "Feud" participant?

    wyzardd - are you a "Furry"?

    You can ask questions (doesn't mean I have to answer them ), but please don't post your guesses in the thread.

    Whatever became of the moment when one first knew about death? There must have been one. A moment. In childhood. When it first occurred to you that you don't go on forever. Must have been shattering. Stamped into one's memory. And yet, I can't remember it.

    If I am a furry, I've never mentioned it on the SDMB (I can't answer yes or no because I'm not entirely sure what a furry is. And I'm ok with that so feel free to not enlighten me )

    I'm not Illuminatiprimus (you're the second person to guess that!)

    Please guess by PM rather than in the thread (otherwise if you get it right everyone knows what my Doper name is!)

    Is there some reason you wouldn't want everyone to know who you are on the Dope?

    Wait, does that mean you're not going to tell us what it is when someone does get it?!

    (I was the first to guess Illuminataprimus, via PM before this thread was opened, y'all!)

    I thought I'd tell everyone who participated in the thread by PM.

    (I'm beginning to think that maybe this wasn't such a good idea!)

    OK, I've asked for this thread to be locked.

    If anyone is interested in continuing to guess or just in finding out what my SDMB name is, please PM me.

    The reason I am doing it this way is because its fairly straightforward to figure out my RL identity from some of my posts on the Dope, and I wanted to make a fresh start in that regard here.
