I'm Timeblue which references my favourite album Time and Blue because of Out Of The Blue. I thought about Bluetime but thought it sounded like a porn channel... smiley-music025

I got mine because of a typing error. Yep, it's true.
I was planning to adopt the name of an ELO song, but most of the best ones had already been taken.
So I thought, I'll go for something around Clog Dance, in honour of Violinski. But couldn't find a pun on "clog" that I liked. Texted my friend: "Can you think of a good pun on vlog dance?" (I'd hit the wrong key and typed in a v instead of a c). And then I realised, vlog is a word. So that's how I got my name, through a typing error. Strgne btu truw.

Back in the early '00s cybercafes were a very widespread thing in Argentina. It was very common to get together with friends and play computer games in local net. Well, there was this World War II game in which you were a soldier and Americans fought against Germans. My friends and I always played Germans, while one of my friends' brother and his mates played Americans. We were a big bunch. So each of us chose a typically German or American name ("Americans" picked names such as Joe, Mike, Greg, etc...) and kept it over the different times we got together to play. Don't ask me why because I've got no idea, but I tried to think of a typically German name and picked "Helmut". Later on I just took that name, added the 83 because of my birth year (because typically the name "Helmut" would already been taken) and used it for many internet user accounts.
I know it's quite a weird story, but that's how it went.
