User:Weasel-ym2151

The story of Weasel is a long one. For now, though, it'll be a short article, because I don't feel like being all dramatic today.

My preferred screen name is WildWeasel, named for the military radar jamming device. The YM2151 bit comes from the name of an FM sound chip, most notably used in the Sega Genesis and Turbo-Grafx 16 systems, in addition to several arcade boards. Atari used this sound chip on their System 1 hardware, which anybody who has played Marble Madness will appreciate the potential this chip has.

But I digress.

My other screen names usually come up as spur-of-the-moment jokes - I once registered on a forum under the name of "The Weasel Man, Yo" (and subsequently forgot my password). I also use "The Watcher", which originated while trying to remain unseen on a rival forum.
