    My Gamertag is Jimbodawg II. It would've been Jimbodawg, but some inactive idiot on XBL decided to take it, and doesn't even use proper capitalization, his is JimboDawg. GAY!

    Anyways, Jimbodawg came to me whenever I was around 6, and my aunt gave my mom her old computer. We were quite poor back then, and I'd remembered playing on my grandmothers computer, running like the first version of Windows, or maybe it was IBM, dunno, it was amazing.
    Anyways, whenever my mom and dad hooked up the computer, I immediately became enticed with it. My parents were hardly on it, but me, I was constantly on it. I became quite knowledgeable with it.

    Well one day my dads cousins dog had puppies, and they were the cutest Pekingese dogs ever. My dad brought home one, it had black hair and was adorable. We named him Jimbo after one of my moms friends who had died.

    Remember how cereal boxes would give computer game disks and what-not? I received a Captain Crunch game in the box one day, and I put it in my computer (goes back to the computer story). You could create your own character that looked like a Captain Crunch ball with eyes, hair, and legs. I named it Jimbodawg, after my dog Jimbo.

    After that, it just kind of stuck with me, and I still have my dog with me today, and I'm 15 years old. My dog is nearly 9 years old, and I love him to death. Maybe later I'll post a picture of him. =)

    Action Frank is a somewhat obscure pop culture reference to Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
    When I first joined Xbox live I just used my steam account name, Action Frank. Trouble was that someone had it first and I had to add a number and take out the space. I chose 451 as a reference to Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451.

    My gamertag, The Cheat902 was originally going to be just The Cheat, unfortunately, some moron who doesn't even play anymore took that and I had to add letters. 902 is a very important number to me, rather 9/02 because it is my birth date.

    Well, I got my gamertag, frostedpickles, when my friend (Chris) and I were at our other friend's (Nick) house. Nick let use make our own gamertags so we could play xbox live and so we could all talk to the team. We got the idea of Chris being pickles, Me being frosting, and Nick being sprinkles. We came up with that because you put the frosting on the pickle and then sprinkles on the frosting, like a screwed up frosted cookie from hell. And then when I got my own xbox 2 months later and I was thinking of a name, I remember that and I thought of frostedpickles.

    And no we aren't perverts =\

    It just sounded good. It doesn't really have a meaning.

    I answered awhile ago but I had a recent name change so yeah....

    Kn1ght- I have a for the word and I always wish I was one (I know, nerd right?) but I decided to keep the "1" in the word because my old gamertag (Th Kn1ght) had the "1" in it.

    Boy- I am a guy obviously but the addition came from a good friend of mine by the name of James (boydy as you may know him as). He and Sean (DRiSCOLL) always called me Kn1ghtBoy back when I was Th Kn1ght. I liked the name so I got 800 points and changed it.

    oh i love this, often many people ask me about my name or make fun of me b.c it has 3 numbers in it.

    well the story behind my name is real simple. both of my grandparents were in WW2. neither of them died in the war, but my grandpa on my dad's side died when i was 8 of prostate cancer. so when i was 13 and was looking for a cool name i thought of my grandpa (who i was also named after), i began to realize that my grandpa was a hero and that he is now dead so i just put down a dead hero and that didn't look so well so i put them all together and got adeadhero and with the numbers on the end well so i added eight hundred and seventy five (875) is my favorite number (don't ask how that became my favorite number i don't remember anymore) on the end.
    so i ended up with adeadhero875 and back then i thought it was cool to capsulize every other letter so my finial product to my gamertag became aDeAdHeRo875.


    so their you have it. my story to my gamertag

    I always thought internet humor/l33tspeak was hilarious. i liked roflcopter, and my last name is Brodish. So i combined them to form Br0flc0pter. pronounced bra-full-cop-ter.

    My gamertag is RomanSparky. Not much of a story behind this, It's just a marching band nickname that i was given as a freshman. Even then the name didn't even have a point, they just called me sparky for no reason. I made my gamertag as a freshman, and i wanted my friends to be able to recognise it easy enough. Sadly, just "sparky" was taken, so i took the next coolest thing (so i thought lol) which was RomanSparky. I've been told i shoulda just added numbers to the end of it, but i just think that looks stupid.
