The Periodic Table of Heapers

Princess Alice

Basically the other day I started assigning people elements based on the similarities of their usernames to the chemical symbols, a tradition dating all the way back to when Anonus and I first met and used "Ca" and "Au" avatars.

So here it is, as an editable Google Doc so you can add yourself and whatnot!

Salix Babylonika

yus

Sex Grips

i spent too long trying to figure out wikiped's periodic table and my element got taken.

i'm the worst

Crystal

I added Miko, since Centie wisely chose mine (as asked). All is well.

Which one was it?

Sex Grips

i arbitrarily decided i was gonna be tungsten because Heavy Metal

then i was like, hm, maybe iron, iron's gritty

then i realized carbon has a million cool uses/aesthetic properties, including making steel (iron on its own is shitty)

Vriska

I think there's a column missing, but I wanna call dibs on Oxygen.

O for Ozbourne. Also atomic number 8.

Could've gone with Silver because Ag (arachnidsGrip) but Oxygen works better because of my original username and because 8.

Klinotaxis

osmium is the densest metal. good for heaviness.

Princess Alice

....yeah, i fucked up on the borders when I tried to remove them from some of the cells. I'll fix it.

i am o m n i p r e s e n t

Aliroz

Argon is the eighteenth element, so it's divisible by three.

It's the third most common element in the earth's atmosphere.

It makes a lovely blue laser and is used for intense bright blue neon lights.

It is use to stop famous documents from decaying (such as the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence), as it is a noble gas and will not react with the paper, and in most conditions is not flammable.

Toolsie

I'll have thallium, because the symbol is Tl which is close to Tools.

Also because it's in Group 13, and 13 is my lucky number.

Tachyon

i'm possibly subatomic, so idk whether i should have one of these really

Haven

Worried it would be tachy?

Tachyon

Just a little.

SpruceZeus

hm. i have no idea. there is no Zu or Sz or Sp to make things easy on me. what do y'all think?

Tachyon

You're a skeleton, apparently, so radon or something similarly deadly

Tachyon

Astatine is the bad one.

Radon is the cute one.

SpruceZeus

it'd absolutely be calcium, if centie didnt already jack it >_>

Tachyon

Without which man would be unable to consume foods.

And would starve.

Tachyon

Y'know i'm just gonna go ahead and claim astatine

from the Greek astatos, meaning unstable

Imipolex G

I have chosen Pb (lead) for it is a heavy metal (think Led Zeppelin) and also it could stand for peanut butter

Sulfur, s, still is not taken, i think

i considered it and then fairly arbitrarily went for mercury instead

Princess Alice

^ lol ur liquid at room temperature

Tachyon

i can't even keep myself together at room temperature

Alduin

Yes.

Also, I stand by Sulfur being good. Fire and brimstone just makes me think of spooky scary skeletons in some death metal cover art, or whatever.

being solid at room temperature is for squares, and also other identifiable solid shapes.

SpruceZeus

Io, fertilizer, pesticide, and acid rain. I'm all right with this.

Sex Grips

sulfur's also an additive in DIESEL

SpruceZeus

sulfur is pretty metal, as far as non-metals go :v

eriophora zia

I grabbed Thulium because atomic number 69

Can we be the Knights of the Periodic Table?

Also, I took two places: Li, for Lin Chong, and Kr, for Kraken. K can be used for someone else.

glennmagusharvey

There is no "El" element, @Acererak.  Though may I suggest "Er"?

Anyway, I picked Lu, for Lucca, the awesome genius girl from Chrono Trigger.  It stands for Lutetium, which also sounds like Lutecia, a.k.a. Lulu, a character from Nanoha StrikerS.

Fine by me. I was thinking I could also stand for Kevin, but really that was just one I threw on there before I posted out so it wouldn't be completely blank when I opened it for editing.

Alduin

We're using actual elements?

Haven

Hydrogen doesn't exist, but otherwise

Corvina

How come Yarrun got Co?

It's a first-come, first-serve thing, basically...

Yarrun XIX

I may give it up if someone gives me a better idea

Toolsie

What about Yttrium?

I would suggest Potassiun (#19) but it seems Odradek already claimed it.
