I am full of deceit

You probably won't find what you're looking for

So, most gamers, especially in today's world of electronic delight, have a gamer handle that they go by, a call sign. Cat's is Overkill. Mine is... I don't have one. Or, I don't have one that was bestowed by someone else. The one I started using long ago was Silence, but then it changed to Autobot. And now I'm stuck, because I want a good one, but not one that's self-congratulatory or annoying, like "Azzkickr" or something. I hate that.

One that I heard recently was Gazebo, which I liked because it was just funny, not trying to be intimidating. A handle should represent both who you are and how you play. I don't know how gazebo did that, but perhaps he often finds himself as a freestanding, open-roofed structure providing a shady resting place (dictionary.com). I haven't played games with very many of you, but maybe people have some suggestions so that I feel like a hardcore gamer without actually being one.

Today I thought of one: C-con. Like recon, only with a C for Chris. I know, you are laughing. Your sides hurt. It is a dumb name, but it just came to me so I thought I'd put it up here.
There's also: Penguin (the xbox gave bob that name last night), Frenzy (I think I'm a very panicked player during multiplayer), and I can't really think of anything else.

So if you have any ideas for a nickname for me, please let me know. it will probably become my name on here as well, so then I won't be stuck with boring old Chris.

    I am Squid. I like Silence, and I like Autobot. I do not like Frenzy. But Frenet isn't bed. Like frenetic, only less. Kevin is Aeon. Also cool. Sometimes he is KJ, which is less cool. I think you need to come up with your own call sign. And also, I wish that we could be playing of the video games together more often. As in, more often than never.

    I forgot to mention that Monsterbear is an awesome call sign.
