What the Gamertag?, Part 3

mwalker95
This is more of a question here: is that 95 a random number like I see in so many names, or did that many people actually want a name that stupid?

Elvis 56 zZz
I'm not sure what to think here, so I'll just say that you're right, he is "sleeping" now.

Achille2000
You have 2000 heels? All those legs must get in the way of each other.

SaLaMaH55
Crime one: abusing capital letters. Crime two: random number at the end of the name. Crime three: not realising you're guilty of the first two crimes.

AlarmingMergim
Not so much alarming as confusing.

BloatedNaxo
Firstly, how does a naxo get bloated. Secondly, what's a naxo?

MrDevil99
You know, I think the lord of darkness uses a somewhat more impressive title than mister. Like "lord of darkness".

i9 Blkfxx
Let me try to decode this. You're nine years old, black, and using a fax machine?

stama69
You stammer during 69? That must get painful for the other person.

SharpFrozenDuck
You're right, that beak hurts. But you have one weakness... the sledgehammer.

ReflexiveSTIAN
How exactly does one stian, let alone do it reflexively?

Henrey Moochow
I didn't realise grass had a name. Mmm, grass.

SkilfulLion
And yet, not skillful enough to spell skillful.

Kronik Anarchy
Not as chronic as bad spelling is these days.

CheekyDOKERrus
Stop being cheeky or you'll get a slap in the face.

Nacho velazquez
As a general rule, naming yourself after food just seems stupid. There are, of course, exceptions.

one lo ping
That's to be expected, not bragged about.

daz11k
There are eleven thousand daz's? I think I would have met at least another one if there were.

FLisONLINE
Except when he isn't.

WHITE3WOLF
No,1number2aren't3substitutes4for5spaces.6See,7it8just9doesn't0work.

dom is 4REAL
Here's a hint: how awesome you say you are and how awesome you actually are are inversely proportional to each other.

Olli the Pro
See above.

TT810
Next up on rejected Star Wars droids: LJ490!

realman33
Slight modification of the rule above: in most cases, the more you feel the need to say something, the less likely it is to actually be.

PwntByMe
The only things you beat are spelling and grammar. Also see above.

LimpCub
Revealing how weak you are in your gamertag isn't a good idea. Instead, try to reveal how pathetic you are by swearing constantly in voice chat.

dirtywater74
Water can play GTA4? Very impressive.

What the Gamertag?, Part 2

Following with the policy of changing features whenever I damn feel like it.

ii mcQueen ii
I thought Ronald McDonald was enough of a queen, but he doesn't make it quite this obvious.
Sir Jaaw
What's the problem? Your jaaw lock when you were saying the word jaaw? And what have you and your jaaw done to deem yourself worthy of being knighted? Maybe some spectacular jaaw tricks performed with your amazing jaaw?
vVBRANDONVv
No offense, but if I had a name like Brandon I would be doing everything possible to hide it. The incredible hiding power of the letter V... isn't so incredible.
CCGCAWG
Now I'm just confused. Constantly Confusing Gamers Continually Always Wearing Green? Cowardly Cow Gone Copying Another Wavy Grain? Convincingly Coagulating Great Cleats And Wombat Growers? Please, stop this madness and tell us!
PTTR93
You're the 93rd PTTR. Great, what's that? I'm all acronymed out from the last guy.
MonkiOnsterOids
No comment... well maybe one. I understand that you're a Monki, but what are OnsterOids?
Chinahead
That head must get in the way a bit.
turdblanket
How do you get to sleep with all that stink?
KS COOLFACE
Anyone can have a cool face... just sit in front of an air conditioner.
MyMindsMine
You can keep it.
d4 4n0yin6 l337
Da anoying leet? Your spelling and frankly retarded use of 1337 is the annoying part.
arisen8889
Since when does having seemingly random numbers at the end of your name count as anything?
Bateman Begins
I bet you started regretting that one around 2007 or so.
xXx Sharkey xXx
If I want to see marine life in that sort of thing, there's plenty of YouTube to go around... so I don't need you in my Burnout game.
JOEXXXBUTCHER
Well at least I know where Sharkey goes when he dies now.
FiercestPlaya3
Being 3rd at something isn't usually something to brag about. Your spelling is somewhere below 3rd though.
man of war12345
I know that the army is lowering their standards, but I didn't realise that you had to prove you could count to get in these days.
M3RCIL3SS NINJA
OH GOD YOUR BAD SPELLING AND GRAMMAR!!! AHH IT'S MERCILESS!!!
xXxM1NDL3SSxXx
Finally, someone who admits it.
XTheLoneDriverX
You may be alone, but at least you have those X's to keep you company.
xX SOEM Xx
So, you can't spell. Is that why you only have 2 x's each side instead of the standard 3?
StinkyJester
So THAT'S what that smell was.

And I apoligise for the post being so long, but that should be an indication of the people on Xbox Live.

What The Gamertag?, Part 1

For this debut (and knowing me, final) installment of WTG, I'm supersizing it. That's right, 4 gamertags for you.

Today's assailants on sensibility are:
ImBadAtForplay
UltimateForplay
Masterforplay
iwantforplay

Seriously, what the %$@*? Oh wait... Seriously, what the just before %$@*? Now for those of you haven't figured it out yet... I'm betting these guys are related. Either that or four people just found new friends just as juvenile as themselves within 5 minutes. Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly expecting class from GTA IV players, but I think this is taking things a little too far. That and last time I checked, gamertags like these were against the Live rules. Still, I think if you're this interested in a certain act then you should be doing said act instead of playing a game where they're censored.

Here's an idea: make everyone's gamertag their IQ. Based on my experience with Live, you'll only need to hand out a few in the triple digits anyway. Think about it... you'll immediately know who to kick from a game before it even loads for them; you'll have a clear reason why that guy in Halo teabagged you and it will be clear why that car in Forza can be heard halfway across the track even though it's constantly doing donuts on the main straight.

If you like my idea (and let's face it, who would?) be sure to either send your support to Microsoft or put a horse's head in Bill Gates' bed... he'll get the idea.
