    Was it your first choice... Pretty simple question.

    I wanted Maleficent, and, given the option, would change in a heart-beat but it's taken...

    Was anybody elses taken too?

    Just a curiosity. :D

    The one I wanted (DarkJager) was suprisingly already taken.....so I got something a bit more vicious and intimidating : Dreamkiller85


  • Registered Users Posts: 746 ✭✭✭whitetrash


    I used a random gamertag generator online and just slapped it in. Using it for my ps3 network name now too!

    [EDIT] The meaning behind your choice of gamertag

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager

    Pretty much my first choice, but I got it ages ago (before the 360).

    I sorta prefer my second choice now, and that's still available, so I might change to it at some point. My shorter third choice is still available too.

    Nah I had to go with some animal I either wanted Laguna or Franchise Player both taken bastards.

    I was very sleepy signing up and am now stuck with mlol instead of mloc :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    I got my original but registered it online before I got Live so nobody could take it. Little did I know at that stage you couldn't use the free trial with an existing account. Anyway, so I signed up with a new one which was never going to be a problem either because nobody uses it.

    So, Pauliedinho (registered but no Live account). Eiresol second choice with Live account.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    My second choice
    SuperSean was my first choice, it was unavailable. So I added Evil to the start, aren't I clever? Lots of people refer to me as "Evil". Others still refer to me as "EvilSuperSheen"...idiots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,585 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    I doubt NekkidBibleMan was taken, but I wanted Brendanger, and ended up with Brendangerous - for that extra menace. :)

    Got mine when I signed up for Live with the original xbox and was the one I wanted.

    Johnny Ultimate is my all around internet name. No trouble at all getting it for Live.

    Not too far off but still...

    Got mine first time. It was a name of a chracter I created for a short story in College: Syrus Vocah. I get called Serious Voka most of the time though!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 467 ✭✭Clank


    My second choice
    I just watched Gladiator so I went for Maximus, taken.Moronic was taken too, so I stuck 'em together.
    Ive met a couple of other Maximuses; CannibusMaximus, JoeMaximus and a few others I never added.
