where did you get your tag/name?

[TE | Hypo]

Since noobinhood is wanting to change his name it made me think back to the beginning (who can remember the quote from 13th warrior?) when I first started FPS (late albeit.) 

Hypocrisy is and was my handle, but some peeps didn't like how I spelled it, or shortened it on my to Hypo. 

The reason I chose Hypocrisy was because of its definition:  the false assumption of an appearance and/or of virtue or religion  People misjudged me growing up and rumors if left unchecked will take on a life of their own and before you know it, you've slept with grandmothers, fathered 12 children in the phillipines etc etc...  and I just sat back and watched and laughed and never denied anything.  nor confirmed.

and then some people couldn't SAY HYPO (pronounced HIGH - POE... they pronounced it HIPPO)  so then I went by Hypo or Hippo or Fkn Hippos because I ran amok with a MAC-10 on CS original.  damn I miss some of those old school maps.    and thus I float between Hypo and Hippos and Hypocrisy.

and for the record, I have a big mouth and I love Hippopotamus'  THE MOST DANGEROUS MAMMAL IN AFRICA!!! KILLS MORE PEOPLE THAN LIONS DO!!!

look at those fucking teeth!


yes they are not meat eaters.  they just kill.

[Video_Master]

Well I was 6 going on 7 and I was big into video games and computer games.  My dad and I were playing some games and he said you are a video game master.  Well ever since I started using the name Video Master.  So now about 24 years later here I am still using the same name.

I don't have a good story for mine, just thought I needed a quick username to register with steam so I went with a nickname, my last name is Byrne (pronounced burn) and people tend to pronounce the e on the end for some reason, so I spelled it byrnie to emphasize the nickname. I got it in highschool so when I got my first car my parents had it put on my license plate, and to this day that is my plate "BYRNIE" Makes it easy to remember when there is an announcement in a public place about your car's headlights being on, I know right away if I'm the dumbass

I had PITFU on my plates for the longest time... and then I got married and my mother inlaw asked me what it meant...

[Hitman Smurf]

One of my first video game systems was the Coleco Vision. Our entire family played the shit out of that thing. My mom played Ladybug, my brother and I played Q-bert and Zaxxon and there was a game in there I played a lot called the Smurf Rescue in Gargamel's Castle. I saw the Smurfs when we were visiting our relatives in Colorado a few months before it began to air on the east coast, and when it did I watched it religiously...the Snorks too LOL. Anyway, when I started playing CS:S I was looking for a name that was both intimidating and silly. Something that evoked thoughts such as "Oh, crap it's a hitman!" and "Noob, you just got killed by someone called smurf!". I figured if there was a Papa Smurf, a Brainy Smurf, and a King Smurf that somewhere in the world of Smurfs it might be possible for there to exist the smurf that, using some artistic license, I created.

His name: Hitman Smurf

[WidowMaker]

In the beginning of online gaming I started off as Slayer. This was the time of Tribes, Rainbow six. Stayed with that for a while, then moved to Johnny Bravo hence my avatar. He is the epitome of stupidity and just fucking funny as hell. I used Johnny bravo when I started playing CS 1.4. After a while I figured Johnny Bravo wasn't a cool name for killing peeps so I remembered the name of a gun I used in Rainbox Six called The WidowMaker. Been that way ever since.

Widow

I didn't have cable tv growing up so I could only see Johnny Bravo at friends houses, but man every chance I could I'd watch Johnny as it was a great cartoon. They don't make em like they used to sadly

[RaGe]

back in my dreamcast IRC days, i went by bruizer. (it was a brand for a cheap paintball gun). I joined up with some group and got into a fight with the founders, and quit and ended up fucken with them pretty bad. (Another story entirely) then they started fuckin with me, and i was only on a DC and they would wwhoop my ass with their scripts, so I changed my name to Nookie ( Chocolate starfish and the hot dog flavored water was just out) I then got that name banned when everyone found out what it meant. I thought and thought I and come up with rage as a tribute to my all time favorite band of all time, Rage against the machine. The big r and g are just something for that extra flare. Been RaGe for many many years now.
