You know when you join a site, any site and you have to think of a sign in name? I am trying to think back to when i joined geocaching.
And choosing a name. Do we each have unique names for the game or would there be for eg another ayrbrain somewhere in the geocaching world? Just a thought.

You're unique, there won't be another ayrbrain.

Many thanks for your reply. No idea why that thought came into my head.

I seem to recall that when I was picking my name there was a problem with my selection... I wanted to call myself "Crusader", but I got an 'ur-urrr, yer can't have that!'
My second choice was 'Croesgadwr', which means Crusader in the Welsh language. Its only a problem when people try and say it!!
Phonetically its "Croy-es-gad-ooow".
By chance I checked to see if Crusader was actually taken....it wasn't, so I don't know what the problem was.
Croesgadwr
a North Wales geocacher.

I can't really remember choosing my name (it's an age thing with me!
We were in north Wales last October so managed a few caches there, just need to go to Ireland and do some there and that will be the four countries of the British Isles done lol

The username "Crusader" is taken, although seemingly not used for logging of caches.
Go into your profile, scroll down to "find another player", then type in "Crusader". A number of usernames using "crusader" can be found.

That makes sense... I recall (at that time) entering the name "Crusader" into the caches found by / hidden by boxes, and getting a 'negative' as a result. So at least I now know that there was a cacher out there between 2001 & 2004 called Crusader, who was never active in the true meaning of a geocacher. It was more than six years later that I tried to claim the title of "Crusader".
