ROUND 1 OF GUESS THAT USERNAME IS DONE! Remember: Winners Never Quit and Quitters Never Win, but those who never win and never quit are just dumb...

# <center>Thanks to all who participated in the first round of</center> 
# <center>the [Guess That Username](https://steemit.com/contest/@bluerthangreen/guess-that-name-contest-round-1-negativer) contest!</center>

![BLUER-blue-strip-3 (1).jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmX3yMRtarqVBKDztpj5vnbaueitfvdgmAsEQEvA8Lygvr/BLUER-blue-strip-3%20(1).jpg)

### A special thanks to @negativer for responding to comments and for being willing to share his deepest darkest secrets, in regards to his username, that is...

![Smallest white space.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcM5PowGFpMVHb5mJNj6Y9pcmjgw4w8qzjTe9yVVQ71h8/Smallest%20white%20space.jpg)

Here's @negativer explaining the meaning behind his username:

> I've always had a dark streak, even dating well back to high school. When you're a kid, you tend to take things to extreme as you find your path in life, so you want to put your stamp on everything and apply your theme to everything. 

> For me, it was being 'negative'. Around my last year or two in high school, I discovered heavy metal and goth music, and more extreme music beyond that. Hitting the right chord at the right time was Type O Negative, a goth metal band that hit the mainstream right around 1993 with the album Bloody Kisses. I was a huge fan. 

> Moreover, the lead singer's name was Peter Steele, and he was tall, had great hair and a strong face, and at the time I wouldn't have minded 'growing up like him'.

> Their CD sleeves had their catchphrase inside: None More Negative.

> I thought, "What if someone could be more negative? What would they be? They would be...negativer."

> And so it began.

### - Closest Guess to the actual meaning belongs to @bex-dk!  

> As far as who got closest, I think @bex-dk did on your first post, particularly with her followup comment about 'Negativer than just negative!'

Super fun contest, and great idea. There were some legitimately interesting explanations for the origin of my username, but @bex-dk had the closest. Thanks @bluerthangreen!

Just found out about this contest. Very interesting not just about the price but for the comments listed. I've read the first one some may sound funny but its really great. You know a way of getting to know fellow steemians in a fun way with earning. Reading comments can release you from stress "no kidding  here" like everyone is really trying. I love it.. quite amazing. Hope to join next round.t
