    I'd be devastated to lose a sibling so I can only imagine how tough that has been for you. Keep up the good work bud, sorry for your loss.

    when my brother Shaun 1st set up his x box account he used his email address as his GT which was Pittbull1872000 cause his dog was killed back in 2000 when he set up his email. Luke was Shaun's oldest son so after he passed Luke changed his GT to Pittjr1872000

    Oh okay, and I'm guessing that 18/7 is someones birthday, or maybe the date that the dog died. Thanks for the response tho

    Posts like this remind me why I see the Trials Community as one the most "human down to earth" gaming groups of recent years, even in the 3 months since I play a Trials game I notice a lot of difference compared to other games where the majority is just complaining/flaming/name calling all over their forums. Also here the devs etc are very involved with forums/live streams which is very nice, I can hope the community will come even closer together with Fusion's simultaneous releases between PC and Consoles and will expand like that.

    Lots of respect man for writing this down and the tribute to your brother in this way.

    187 (in the U.S.) is urban slang for death, killing, murder etc. - so the gamertag just means the dog was killed (getting killed = 187) in 2000
