Obviously it's a kitten that's struck by lightning!
Actually, it is just an amalgamation of the handles of two long time College friends.
I'm known (occasionally in real life) as Gigaflop. "Gig" for short. It's about as dorky, nerdy, geeky, [insert other adjectives], as it could possibly get. I've claimed Gigaflop on any and every possible venue that I could. Forums, email addresses, gaming systems. I've got a lot of them, but where I miss out because someone else beats me to the punch and steals my handle, I'm "TheGigaflop." Of course, the internet being what it is, means that from now on, both Gigaflop and TheGigaflop will be taken before I get to claim them.
I've been Gigaflop since 7th grade. How disturbing is that. I've had the same handle (nick/alias) for 18 years.
My friend is almost as bad as me. He goes by the name Cataclyst, and he similarly owns the name across almost everything. He has it easy though, since his isn't even in the dictionary (note the misspelling), his is rarely taken. And I think he might have been using his for almost as long as I have used mine.
So there you have it. We're going to be making video games. Small ones for Android and iOS, maybe other projects as well. And our Team, brand, company will be called "Team GigaCat."
We're just 2 people. But we've got passion (and some might even say a little bit of smarts), and the drive to do it.
