well, to break it down. lv-gamer has always been my internet/webboard alias, lv is just las vegas (where i live) and i just stuck gamer there, it was also my first xbox live/unreal tournament tag.

"ytlas" is just "salty" backwards, and salty is derived from saltydog, which is desrived from my screenname/alias "k9nacl", which comes from NaCl K9. NaCl K9 was something I saw on a license plate one day and spent a while decoding it and after my dad saw it as well he figured out that it meant "saltydog", which is like a pirate type person, or someone that's on the sea for long periods of time.

im also a fisher/hunter so this appealed to me, and i went by saltydog for quite some time. after a while, i just took the dog off and became salty, ytlas is just for fun and to confuse most people

I rember I always wanted the coolest name as a child. One that other kids would be like wow i wish i had a cool name like that. Later in life I started playing Mechassault and the second one was Mechassualt Lonewolf. So i was like wow thats a sick name and started using it from then on.

I used to have screename mattsportkd. I eventually decided sporks were awesome and took out the t and d. Before I was Spork I went as a ton of stupid names. I can't even remember half of them but they were all for forums. Spork always stuck.

I play under 2 names, I only use DemonKnight on n00bfest, and that is because when CZ came out I didnt want to use my other name from previous CS versions, so I went through my DvD collection and found one of my old fav. movies "Tales From The Crypt: DemonKnight" AND SHIZZAH THERE WAS MEH NEW NAME!

Oh and for any one who asks, XtX is the other name of mine (nothing to do with the gay 1.6 clan) and no one know's what it means accept for me and my friend, and that is how it shall stay :twisted:
