Reddit never had to compete with a musician in search results.

      It took me three hours to decide upon mine, this was back when i needed one for the xbox 360. I literally sat there on the set up screen, and thought. You should see me struggle with character gens.

        Way back in 1997 or so, I was not sure what to use, so I just chose “Foxtrot” from the phonetic alphabet because it sounded a little neat, and it has my favorite animal in it. It was not such an issue because you could still get that name everywhere at the time of course. Since then, I have mainly used variations of that, but at some point branched out into some others such as the one I use here.

        It’s always kind of funny to me though, when I go through some old backup and see one of my forum signatures with my original name on it.

          For me i went with WraithGear because i personally feel that i am not here, or real, that i am just piloting my corpse around. It crossed with my thoughts on gaming due to making an xbox account and all, and i have a framed art cell of metal gear acid on my desk, and it all kinda clicked. Its gear as in metal ‘gear’ more so then a cog.
