Subject: What's the story behind your gamer tag?

Now listen up! Back in my day, we didn't have fancy tanks! We had sticks. Two stick and a rock for the entire platoon! And we had to share the rock! You should consider yourself very lucky marines!

Hello! You may also know me as Ijnekono. How you have made your way here I do not know, but welcome. (:

Mine is my name(s) mixed around + an extra word. It's interesting, actually. Ijnek is my middle name backwards, O came out of nowhere and Nobles should have been Noblestone (my names meaning in the tongue of my ancestors) but it was too long somewhere and so I shortened it to Ijnek O Nobles. I now go by Ijnekono when I create tags and stuff since it's easier to say.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I wouldn't think that, looking at your GT. Don't really associate satanic nor sultan with those 5 points.

My name represents everything I fight for.
It stands for Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Integrity, and Honor!


For the on topic part: As for my GT, it used to be Stuckers then I changed it a few years ago aVeryEasyTarget. If you can't figure out the story behind it, then you are an idiot.

I wish there was a story behind my gamertag. My Halo CE profile name was EagleEye (again not sure why), so when it came time to make my Xbox live account I slightly changed it.

Well I am a big Halo Fan...

But my Gamerstag, Air Force Hero, is different. My Grandpa was in the Air Force and I always wanted to fly for USAF.

I'm awesome...No seriously I am.

Whats the story behind My gamer tag, well your in for a long one. you see It all started around 2004 and I used to play alot of Online games when I was younger. In order to play an online game I had to make a username. Unlike other kids I didn't have a good imagination. so what i did was I got my Hand, I picked it Up, and I slaped the Keyboard and this is what poped up. MCAASDDFAF. Now I noticed one thing, it was too long and too capitalized. so I shortend it and decapitalized it. it came out to this. ddfaf. After getting hacked for the first time it went to this ddfaf1. and getting hacked again. ddfaf2. I noticed that 3rd time wasnt going to be the charm. so I went to this. ddfaf4. I joined a clan and thats How I got Here to be named...C34 DDFAF4. Interesting?

Back before we had a 360, my cousin brought over Halo 3 and his xbox 360. We had never played Halo 3 before, so you could imagine how hyped I was to play. He had two remotes. My bro and him signed in. I wanted to join in really badly, so I took out his Guitar Hero remote and plugged it in. I got to the profile naming screen, and realized I could only use letters from one row. I took some random letters and came up with HOV. My brother saw it and said I should stick an O at the end of it.


HOVO was born.


My brother was playing on a Nintendo DS one day, and had a lightbulb go off. We were big fans of a game called Jet Set Radio Future, and he loved the character known as Zero Beat. He thought Ninjas were cool, so he stuck a ninja at the end of ZERO. His DS name became ZERO NINJA.

When we got our own Xbox 360, he wanted to use ZERO NINJA as his gamertag. It was taken, so he decided to get clever with numbers. 360 x 2 = 720, he liked the two rotation idea, and he stuck it at the end.

ZERO NINJA720 was born.

For some reason, I think HOVO was taken, or I wanted my tag to be similar to my bro's.

Thus, HOVO NINJA.

My name is Tyler. Computers and Video games is what I love to do.

I had two accounts on my Xbox 360 before I got live:fatman1236 and slimjim1234. I choose fatman1236 for my live name because I'm overweight.

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.
