What made you select the name?

I believe in myself so i can do it :)

I'm an atheist who values reason over faith, and I'm a rural country boy. plus I think it sounds cool.

i eat sharks. legitimately tear them to pieces with my teeth. thats my name because its ironic.

 Reason and faith are one in the same!

hi carpman! I disagree with you on faith being the same thing as reason. but my hunch is such topics are not allowed at chess.com so to keep on good terms with the mods we'll have to just shake hands and disagree agreeably. 

I'm a twenty ton garden snail who uses a double-wide trailer home for a shell and types with his optical tentacles.

Ouch. 

badminton - "shuttlecock" and chess. # is private ;)

i just like wolves.....

Pushwood describes my playing style best. Or close my eyes to a difficult position reach out and move the piece I touch sometimes fortuitously tipping the king

My two dogs are both purple-coloured.

I was really trying to be funny. I couldn't believe that someone didn't already have my user name. I'm keeping it. 

what was it again ?

I simply love owls, particularly horned owls.

im incredibly lazy (outside of work), i eat like a pig (so my daughter tells me), and i was born in 1983.

 Isn't it kind of offensive?

Too true...

Simply, I am the God of chess!

I guess it could be if I intended it to be. But most things can be offensive to most people. I like to think that as I get better at chess and learn to dominate opponents, they will be able to say that they were schooled at Fork U. U for university. I like that it has more than one meaning.

It's probably not difficult to guess what I had in mind.

My love of Yoshi (Mario character) has gotten me to choose this name.
