Global Conflict

Silent Bob is pretty obvious. I was 14 at the time and i had just seen Jay and Silent bob strike back, so my teenage hormones were at their peak. Later when the bf3 beta came out, i thought it wasnt appropriate anymore, so i got the inspiration from a friend that uses a song from Tool as a nickname and went for Undertow, which is actually the only album i don't own on a physical copy.

I have always liked all sorts of fantasy, and dragons are usually the most powerful (You know, the "I'll eat your army whole" type ) and the numbers come from my birthday (27.6) and the year I was born (1996). People often don't believe that I'm only 16 (might be the fact that I'm around 6' 6" or 195 cm)

Well, my nick in many games is Jokerle

I used to be "EvilJoker" in a mafia-type browser game (cant remember the name, but was quite famous back in 2003/2004 ..)
In IRC a friend started calling me Jokerle a diminutive-form of Joker in german. I liked the sound and sticked to it.
Mixing an english word with a german-ish ending

Ever since I used Jokerle and it is most of the time available (not in Planetside2 arrrggg!!).
Another plus, it is easily and quick to type

When I first started messing about on the net I wanted to make a name that was simple and unique, calloutman sounded kinda cool and returned no hits on google. That's as deep as it goes.

Thus the beast was born.

It worked out well for you, being a FC, you call out your orders

Mine was actually my friend's name in Runescape in 4th grade, lol. His name was Yondergod, then we made an account that we shared named Yondergod2, then he quit playing (I wish I was smart enough to quit too, instead of wasting my life playing that shitty game ) and I kept playing for a while, so the name was pretty much mine so I kept it, since I'm not creative at all and couldn't think of anything else.

You were playing runescape for ever? i mean , you didn't play anything else ? Like i adapted my name from C&C ! (You can check previous comments to check the vid that i posted). but...nothing else ;_;?

Unfortunately no, not really, I didn't play much else. I did make quite a bit of money, in relative terms considering I had/have no other source of income, from selling my account when I finally quit, and then just botting/gold farming after that though. My PC was a Pentium 4 with onboard graphics so I couldn't play anything else.. then I got an xbox 360 and played Halo Reach a lot, then I finally got a decent PC when my brother-in-law upgraded his and gave me his old one, just an am2+ Athlon X2, 9500gt, 4gb of ram, etc. But it was enough for me to start upgrading 1 part at a time: Phenom II x4->Gtx460->finally able to run bf3 now->Am3 mobo+8gb ram>HD7870>3570k+Z77 Mobo. Here's my finally finished (for now) rig: http://www.overclock.net/lists/display/view/id/3310659 Most of it was paid from Runescape botting. That was a long and unnecessary post, lol

BanzaiLang is a username I came up with to use for all my games so it would be easy for my friends to find and add me across several games I play.

Banzai in Japanese literally means "one thousand years" but when used in speech it can mean "Hurrah!" or "Long life!" I pretty much think of it as a shout of enthusiasm or celebration. Of course, among westerners it's mostly known as a battle cry. This just happens to fit my reckless playstyle seeing as how I (too) often charge into gunfights without thinking. And Lang is my actual name.

Okay, so here's the story behind my name :P

Many a day ago, I was idling a lot in the RPG-Channel (the ones where you all write a story and everybody plays their character, not, like, WoW or anything) of an IRC. There was one guy in there who randomly one day made up a religion based on cake (Mother Cake will drown the whole world in cake at the cake-o-calypse, but only the chosen ones will survive!), and I became a follower of that. Now, Kuchen is the German word for cake, and the -fari part comes from the Rastafari religion. Considering that my main nick at the time was Shadow, when I registered for BF3, I just went with my new one, due to the old one being taken a bajilion times. Since then, I've been using it all across the internets. :)

Mine is german and translates to the_Victim. When I first started playing shooters, I didn't even have internet at home. So I met some friends at an internet café and we played Counter Strike. I wasn't really good at it, and my K/D was below 0.5 all the time. So I figured, I was the victim of everybody else. Then, when Battlefield came out, things began to change because you didn't only get points for killing people. So when I play now on public servers my K/D may still suck but Iin 90% of the rounds I'm in the top 10.

My original nick here at GC back in Oct of 2004 was " Chaplain". Figured I could at least counsel my brothers. Over the years it actually worked out that way but in 2005 i changed it to Winter Lion. After one of my favorite movies....."Lion in Winter". Watch it sometime.......it's a classic. Be forewarned...........there are no special effects. lol.
