When I was a kid I used to work in house construction. The guy who started the company but turned it over to his sons used to come out a few months every year and be 'saw boss'. Guy had a speech impediment a mile wide and never could get "Jeremy" out, always "Gemini". The first time I needed a callsign (Wing Commander) I couldn't think of another name I'd been called by a better person so 'Gemini' it was, is, and will probably always be.

GB_Resarector
GB_WitchDoctor

Then started playing MW4:
OnLashoc (most commonly called Onnie because people couldn't pronounce)
*Bunch of random inbetween to get more games and various other reasons*
PhiLoSophy
donk3y
b0x

Then back to Onnie

Well I've been running Sev for as long as I can remember. On xbox I now go by Grasso Stronzo (sorry for the language for those who speak italian) and back when I played PS I went as Kenpachi_Sev.

It was TurboSnake, I enjoy speedy mechs and after takeing out 2 Daishi's and a Madcat in a match in my Hellhound my Commander started calling my mech build the [HS}Landshark , pretty soon everyone just started calling me Landshark. Rhavin is the name of my SWtOR Toon, Landshark was taken here though I will be damned if I have seen him post one time!!!!

REDSTORM!!

I won a reward in the Chicago Mech Simulators when I was a kid for most deaths by suicide because I took out 6 mechs one day and blew up 7 times.

I was using a close range Thor that day.

Thanks

Mine was Hellraiser. That was what my dad would call me, so it seemed apt :)

In recent years I've moved from -Spect(+)r- to TCP/I-PWN to Gavvix. SideSt3p is the name I use though in my modern games :P
