It was the gamertag I picked for my Xbox 360. I wanted a tag that in some way represented Doctor Who. I liked it so much that I use it as my username here.

My friends came up with my username but because it was so long it was shortened to just four letters. Ten years later the meaning behind the letters became dumb and obsolete but the initials stuck and ended up as a rather catchy name.

We were playing Counter Strike a few years back and we had a team and we needed to have our own unique names. My friends thought it would be funny to combine my name with the Terminator.

On this site Bags was taken and my Name.# in Starcraft was 159.

I don't use this name in games though. I used to use Bag Of Chips because when I was playing K-GunZ I got an account from a friend with leveled characters and one was named "Bag Of Chips". All of my friends started calling me that so I kept it. Not to mention my best internet friend's mom has jokingly(RIGHT?) hit-on me multiple times since I've used that name. Everyone just refers to me as, "Bags".

I started using a shorter version of it recently. In Bloodline Champions, World of Warcraft and Starcraft II I'm Bags and in League of Legends I'm Bagga.

Should have seen me in Planetside... xXBagsxOfxChipsXx as a joke.

Blastinburn is based on my email (which had an extra letter that made it sound stupid), which is based on my character Blast, who has become more than the fan character he was originally (do not be fooled by my avatar, I'm just to lazy to make an updated sprite of him).

I named myself DaMan once in Super Smash Bros, so when one of my friends asked "who's DaMan?" another replied "(my real name)'s DaMan!" before they could stop themselves. This has worked maybe twice, but I still always put it as my username.

OutlawOkami is my gamertag on Xbox Live and my Playstation ID. When I was first trying to think up a gamertag I tried several things and had this typed in but wasn't done considering which one to use when I accidentally hit the enter key. Since it cost 800 points to change it, I was pretty much stuck with it. Now, its grown on me and I use it whenever its available. Outlaw comes from one of the first anime shows I watched, Outlaw Star, back when it was on Cartoon Network and I tried everything to get my parents to let me stay up til midnight to watch it when it was switched to the precurser of the Adult Swim time block (Toonami Midnight or something like that). Okami is from the video game Okami and the Japanesse word for 'wolf', wolves being my favorite animals. I later found out that the correct spelling for 'wolf' would be 'ookami', and that 'okami' with one 'O' actually might mean hostess.

One of Deadpool's aliases (according the wikipedia page I had read) was "The Merc with The Mouth". I was 10 at the time so I threw in a t3h and removed the "with the mouth". I used it for everything.

Well it was back in the day of Medal of Honor and I was creating my first character and whatnot, long story short my friends I was with rushed me and I ended up randomly typing "Qizx" and that name stuck. People know me as that pretty much anywhere I go that has a username, I'm not even 100% sure how to pronounce it, but I have my ideas.

I've experimented with several usernames, my current one came during a brief Egyptian mythology kick. Tried to go for something with duality, light and dark, and it hit me.

Ra + Anubis = Win.

At the time I played destroy all humans and kingdom hearts all the time. Being 9 I thought the main character (cryptosporidium) was hilarious and I was obsessed with kingdom hearts, and I still love the weapon (and Demyx).
