There are only a couple of people i can't work out, but i'll get it eventually. I don't think it's worth throwing Edward from the Perambulator over though.
It's all just a bit of fun for a few weeks yeah? If you are taking part in a serious discussion i suppose putting your real name in your tag would be an idea. It might indicate a bit more gravity i suppose. But in the games/lightweight discussions, it really doesn't matter.

Last year I tried to put my usual name at the bottom of posts where I thought it might be important (eg in a long coversation where I was dialoguing with specific people). But I kept forgetting

Ah, but you don't have to look at my PS - just read my tagline ---> Acronym: K(rappy) E(ver) A(fter)
Although it depends on how squiffy you are I suppose

Yes, where did the eye candy names come from, Anabel? I've seen "I yam candy" and "not just eye candy" and a couple of others to go with your "not even eye candy". Why?
And it's not fair your doing an anagram name and an eye candy name at the same time. But as long as you keep "Minister of Abbrev." in your tagline we still know you, B'Elana.

TRiG, it all started when Galaxy Babe commented on a clever remark of a friend with the words: 'not just eye candy' - which, I have to admit, I didn't understand at the time, because I had never before heard that expression. When I found out what it means, I just knew that 'not even eye candy' would suit me. Seeing all the smijs and K-somethings, I thought we could just as well start our own trend, so I asked lil to join and now she is 'Eye am Candy'
If you can think of something nice containing 'eye canndy' for a tafg line, you're welcome to join - it's really just for fun.

I think we should all become 2legs purely in the line of research to see if we can confuse him even more than usual.

Hang on strangely you are trying to say that it would confuse people because if they changed theirown names they would forget who they were before.
As the only living entity known to display this idiosyncratic identity amnesia is the pissartist known as 2legs IM afraid its not something we really have to worry about. Especially as we have the handy conversation tree to help with such things too.
I think we all have the capacity to bare grudges and chaning names temporarily does facilitate a more nuetral and message focused reading of posts. In this way anagrams a re a good thing, unless your only business here is snipping at people you feel you have a vendetta against.
I for one will be joining in with the harmless fun because its nice to sometimes shake things up a little. In the same vein I'll be wareing a fancy dress costume to the clubs halloween party on Saturday.
one love
