There was a discussion somewhere else... not sure where... still don't understand how to navigate this place. But the consensus was - lemmings, yes.

Great, loved Lemmings back on my Amiga 500 ;)

I logged many hours on that game! Not Amiga though, early 90s PC version.

It's even still enjoyable on an emulator :) Truly an ageless game.

On that note. Why "Lemmy"? I have obviously missed that memo.

I strongly disagree, and vote for "Lemurians"

Lemmings sounds perfect to me!

I say we should all name ourselves based on our instances rather than the wider service. So I'm going with Lil' Shits. Or sh.it.heads.

(But seriously, just users)

I kinda like using Lems...

Lemmings is fun, but it also has decades of being used as an insult to contend with. I do hope it catches on, but I'm trying to stick to the boring/generic "users" until then.

I don't call us anything. Boring, I know. :/
