It's come to my attention that Rick and I are both really really cool because we both have four-letter usernames that we actually go by in real life! That means we're significantly cooler than everyone else who doesn't do this.

As Rick says,

So are you cool, too? How cool are you? Here's an easy formula to find out!

Take your base coolness: b

Now, is your username four letters? If it is, a1 is 1. If it isn't, it's 0.

Is your username either your real name or part of it? If it is, a2 is 1. If it isn't, it's 0.

Then plug it all into this formula:

c = b × a1 × a2

I don't understand this math, but I don't need to. I'm too cool for school.

Just like Sofi.

Of course you guys can redeem yourself by changing your names to something like ours! You guys won't regret it, I promise. :J

Yet somehow, I feel like changing my username to "Dani" could confuse people.

How about "Dany"? Or "Dann"? Or "Danl".

Does it have to be my first name, or can I use my surname?

I could be cool using my surname...

B-but I don't want to! I never use my real name online. I just don't feel any need to associate myself with it online as well.

If we consider Sofi's maths, you see that someone with the given requisites has C=1, that meaning you are cool. Which would imply that they are 100% cool.

However, coolness isn't a percentage, and 0 is certainly cooler than 1, which means that coolness increases as C approaches 0. Therefore, Sofi's equation actually doesn't say if someone is cool or not, but if they qualify to have a coolness of 0, which is both not being cool and the coolest you can be.

Of course, none of this makes sense, as coolness is not logical.

If I used my real name it'd be three letters.
But it's a common name and I know of some other members that it'd probably conflict with. So I couldn't do it. There's also the fact that I don't like using my real name online...

Therefore, I am the winner, possibly?

Paulguy's Post configuration
Well, my real name would fit, as you know, but I imagine there are other pauls. I know xenesis is a paul. I don't really feel like changing my nickname at all, though, anyway.

Well my name is Vinny so having Vinnyboiler as a user name should make me somewhat cool.

My OLD old user-name "VLCstudios" stood for Vincent Lesly Church, which is my full name.

Yea, I usually "Dani" both IRL and online... it fits me better too

My regularly-scheduled username (BMF54123) contains my initials...

Unfortunately, I would have to take a second middle name to bring it to the 4 letters required for optimal coolness, and all of the common forms of my first name are either too long or too short. I am disappoint.

I use my ancient nickname because in my book, being the only one left with numbers and underscore that actually posts more than a few times a year is cool.
