Number one for PurpleGiant is me. However I found a number of posts in other places on the net from a PurpleGiant that is not me. I no longer feel like a unique little snowflake.

May we enquire where your name originates?

We could also instigate an attack of righteous proportions against this impostor to free you from this tyranny.

Interesting, though not too surprising. I've done searches on subjects I was trying to help other people with, and found my own posts!

Number 35 is my profile. Number 9, however, is a cached link to a post in my blog (which is now no longer).

When I went to read it ('cause I didn't recognise it), I found that there had actually been no less than three non-spammy posts in my blog in September, before my domain was moved to a new server and the blog discontinued. How odd.

My macnn profile is the #1 hit, the rest mostly being slashdot posts (a lot of which, amusingly enough, being the only story I ever got posted on slashdot - a story about child porn.

5 of the top 10 results for my name are posts here. However, the other 5 are by another maxpower2k3 who seems to frequent Magic: The Gathering forums (it's not me, I swear!)

Along with the first whole page, and then many more pages after that with single non-me things popping up.

Results 1 - 10 of about 311 for "King Bob On The Cob". (0.41 seconds)

All me.

MacNN Profile is my #1.

Results 1 - 10 of about 1,070 for kbotc. (0.40 seconds)

Alot of that is me, but some is just random server related drivel...

Nice having an entirely unique name that no one in their right mind would steal.

I came across a Site where I had responded to some discussion, but for the life of me, I now do not remember being involved. I'm 98% sure that it was in fact me. Still, a little strange.
