IIRC I made a simple skin mod for some game when I was 10 and I felt awesome
Screwup in bf2.
Half of my real name.
Uncreativity and labeled keyboards in 2005.
I just randomly thought of it.
When I started XBL, I wanted the name MonkeyGod based from the character in Journey to the West, but that was taken. So I added 'im' and 'GOD' from the two people who inspired me to do filming and love for machinima, imSuck and SodaGOD. And imMonkeyGOD was born.
The Medic is the class with the best character overall from TF2 and the idea of a literal pocket medic is simply adorable. I couldn't resist.
I first had "mrfreak7" because I couldn't think of anything else, then I thought of "Zombie Cupcake" while playing L4D (this was before I knew about the pony epidemic, don't box me) Then, I watched random anime, and someone called "Zero" came up and then I ate a cookie after my search for anime and I just called myself "ZeroTimesCookie". True story.
I found a French-Slovenian dictionary at my grandma's house, searched for platypus (because platypuses are awesome) and there it is: Kljunaš. I started to use this as an username on many websites, but I usually write it without the ˇ because I can't type it.
Back when I thought Knuckles was the coolest game character ever, and I was going through a ridiculous metal phase
I wish I knew.
[QUOTE=Itachi_Crow;34175548]im a bird irl caw[/QUOTE] When I read that 10 crows began to caw outside. Origin of my name: My friend called me it in a video in video production class in 9th grade. My initials are JB. He added the "kid". I'm in college now.
Well, believe it or not, my screen-name ironman17 was NOT inspired by the Marvel character Iron Man. When I first made this FP account I thought ironman would be a reasonable screenname since it had undertones of strength, being a man of iron. As for the 17 part, that was due to just "ironman" already being taken, so I slapped a number on the end of it, the same number of the main city in Half-Life 2, back when I was a hardcore Valve fan. I still am an avid follower of Valve, despite there being no hints toward the next Half-Life game, since they make quality and are the main reason I got into gaming. So that's the story of the name.
It started out as shadowhawk9413 because that was the year I was born and my age at the time, and I had an obsession with Red Tailed Hawks at the time. The Shadow bit was because I thought it sounded cool, and the whole 'We're shadows of who we really are, on the internet.' bullshit. Hence, shadowhawk. After a while I outgrew it, and everyone called me Shadow - but that's always taken. So I combined Shadow with my second name ('Ari') to get Shadari or sometimes Shadow_Ari. Eeyup.
Nickname from school. Name is Billy plus memorable number.
I download alot
Mental retardation.
Secret.
Runescape username back from 2001, where I first heard of the game. This username's no longer used by me, but it has quite a history.
A creature from the TES games.
I got the idea from a friend's name on Halo 2, which was Kamakazi.
I like food. Eating is my favorite thing to do. Gastric is a prefix that means "to refer to the stomach". Also, I used to be an active Newgrounds user. Their logo is a Tank. The end.
[QUOTE=mike;34174666]it's my name[/QUOTE] highfive
Back in the day, when Mingebag was the default Gmod name, a friend of mine though it would be a clever troll joke to go into shitty unprotected sandbox servers with the name "Certified Mingebag" and grief the server to hell with the latest techniques of the time (Flaming citadels, spastic-containers en-masse, things like that). The name just stuck. I shortened it by getting rid of the Mingebag part.
Billy Mays
It comes from my old username, Brolyten, which comes from Broly, of Dragonball.
