    Gamertags

    theres quite a few interesting gtags on here and itd be nice to know where theyve come from, as in whats the meaning behind them or why they were chosen. there may be no reason or people might not want to share...

    but for anyone whos interested mine is from my second name Williams, which was obviously taken

    Mine was given to me by the ex-wife in a round about way ... she was constantly going on about me being useless So when I tried to join a forum in 1992 or 93 I always used by CB Radio handle but that was already taken so tried a few variations which were also taken then had an idea ... UseLess which wasn't taken the UK bit was added to my GT due to 'UseLess' being taken and the fact that I'm in the UK.

    Mine is deeply rooted within music.
    I am from the "Chemical Generation" as they call it.
    I love my trance, hard house, drum n bass, breakbeat and pretty much anything else made digitally with a fat beat.
    I have been a hobbyist dj for over 10 years now as well.

    Euphoric - exaggerated feeling of well-being or elation
    Fusion - a kind of popular music that is a blend of two or more styles

    Kinda makes alot of sense when you look at it like that but it took me ages to settle on this.
    Web dictionaries are great

    Mine is somehow rooted in some old sprite commercials.
    And 13 is my lucky number.

    haha... I was in like 8th grade. I liked those commercials so much I wanted my email to be jooky13@yahoo.com. but it was taken. The closest I could get was jookalot13. People started shortening that to jook. From then on I have been jook13 on all forums and things like that.
