It's a pretty interesting name.

How is it pronounced - is it "God Stone" or "God's Tone?"

I'm yet another Simpsons fan joining the ranks.

Why is this in brackets and quotes?

"Ah, the question of one's username." Lucky smiles and thinks on hers. "Isn't one just lucky to be?" she asks the humans. She is just as lucky and thought it appropriate to use. "Just to remind you though. For it could easily be Luckyyou."

I think you're trolling.

Her attempts at sounding contemplative and wise are weak.

what a neat thread to read through.

mine is from when i first started using FL Studio (then "frootyloops"). i had it installed on my moms computer when i was 15 or 16 and had a folder for vocal files called "ZVOX". "z" for zach, cuz that's my name, VOX for vocals, cuz that's kinda standard. when i went to put some of the music i had created on myspace i needed an alias and i wanted it to be a word that didn't exist so when i told people how to find it they wouldn't encounter any confusion. i actually spent a couple weeks waiting for the right word to occur to me and it was right under my nose the whole time. i went with a more phonetic version of it, and i find it more aesthetically pleasing with that 'k' sticking up... i avoid capitalizing the 'z' at all costs. if i am forced to i will usually choose something different and then forget my username on that site or whatever, and lose interest.

i've been using this same alias ever since and no one has copied or used it. i am tiring of it though.
