The limitation to quotation nesting comes with browsers: my friends and I tried it once, and the innermost quotes started disappearing. The thread got a bit messed up when we converted to phpBB from IPB, unfortunantely, but it still looks cool.

Actually, Googling my primary screenname brings up my Wikipedia user page over the Magic the Gathering Card it was based on. It's kinda scary actually. I'm trying to establish an online identity here. ;)

Heh, so far, I have you beat.. The entire top results page for my nick are all actually me or about me - with one exception.

http://mg.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Val_Roja

I have no idea what that is.. I'm not that hip with wikipedia. Any clues?

It's a system message (Mediawiki prefix) checking whether or not "Roja".

Funny!

First 10 I'm assuming... couldn't possibly be the first 100.

(If you do Roja -wikipedia)

For the first 20, its something like a 90% rate. For the next 30, its around 80%. For the next 50, its around 50%. After that, its mostly noise, not signal.

More than a few imposters, once you get past the first ten. Not bad, overall.

But yes, the default first 10 are MINE!

You can't Google my username effectively because of the ellipses.

This is deliberate ;)
