Your "High Score Table" Initials of Choice?

[nesman85]

i use MTM which are my initials.
i can't even count the number of times i've seen different people enter ACE.

[scooterb23]

SRB...my initials...pretty generic...but in all my travels, I'm the only SRB I've ever seen at the top of the charts

[BillyKaneIsGod]

This depends on what text palette is offered...if it's just letters, I use the obvious "GUY" (my first name). However (seems mostly in capcom games), sometimes you are offered symbols outside the alphabet. My personal favorite is two hearts followed by a musical note...it's an homage to the attack of the soldier before the final boss of Gunstar Heroes..."Love Love Dancing" heheheh.

I have used "PKD" for years now. PKD contains none of my initials. It is actually the initials of my favorite author, Philip K. Dick. I have been a fan of his writing since middle school (I'm 27 now), and thought it was a fun way to thank him.

My name is Cye :P

What do you think I use :lol:

[WiseSalesman]

I sometimes use JRA (my initials), but when I'm playing around my home town I always use ATMA or even ATM (AtmaJR if I have enough letters). It has something to do with one of my e-mail addresses, and I named my Soul Calibur 2 character that, so it sort of just stuck. People know whom I am when I use that one....not a lot of people know me by JRA.

JLT, my initials. On Capcom console games, I always put AAA.

If it's three characters, I usually go with my initials, DGB.

However, DDR since 5th Mix allows four characters, so I go with DAVE. Interestingly enough, after playing an Oni course, this has many times resulted in bystanders exclaiming, "You're Dave???" Heh. Sure, I got about 98.1% on Nearly=130, but I wonder what their reactions would be if they saw the infamous Yasu in action... ;-)

So if you see DAVE on a DDR machine in Southern Michigan, it's probably me.

[Starcade]

I use my real name "Wes" for my high score initials.

[Mr-E_MaN]

I use FOO, in honour of Mr. T.

[Arqueologia_Digital]

Mine are MJB (my complete name: Matías Javier Bianco), and...sometimes... ?M?

[Arqueologia_Digital]

Oh sorry...and a lot of times... AD. (Arqueología Digital)

[Gamemaster_ca_2003]

for me i put down ALD but it might be AJD (because i have 2 middle names) but i never do that. for games that can have a name i usually put down my first name (sometimes first and last names).



And that's the way it is.

It's more fun during a supposedly heartwrenching moment when someone talks to you saying "help me you ass!"

thats awesome, gave me a good laugh today

[RetroYoungen]

I had a friend that said I was a stingy fuck (I wouldn't let him read one of my mags after he and his buddy ripped up the last one) so they started calling me SFK. I kept it 'cuz I can change it to mean "Super Fly", and if I get a high score it means that I kick ass, Super Fly Style.

I used to just use KEV, it got boring.

[ubersaurus]

I use Kev...its my name, and dammit, it works all too well.

[AB Positive]

My fiancee uses random letters apparently, because she doesn't want to use her real initials. I don't know why.... RAW would be great to see as a high score...


my own initials sort of suck: AAG. I've been known to substitute the second 'a' for a S to make it look a bit cooler, but lately I've been using my nickname instead of my first name (Bruno). Leaving a few BAGs around the area.

-AG

[hezeuschrist]

My friends used to call me Fats, because *gasp* I was a fat kid. Over the past year I've consequently lost a lot of weight, and with my long hair I kinda look like Jesus. So over a year ago, I always used FAT, but now if I can I use Jesus, or if it's only 3, JHC. Jesus H. Christ. The H is for Herbert.

[Anonymous]

It used to be my initials, NAM

Now it's BLR, or BLAR if I get 4. Every once in awhile I'll use FLUKE, but not usually. Most commonly found on Galaga machines.

CHZ

[Pantechnicon]

My middle name is Zeno, as my family origins begin in the Czech Republic by way of Greece. This makes for a nice, unique name to place on a high score list. I spell it out when possible and use either ZNO or ZEN when I only get to use three letters. It has given considerable lift to my ego to see this name remain atop many games in town, particularly "Pit Boss"-type machines.

If my children are watching me play something and I earn a high score I give them the credit: either ALX or XAN for my son Alexander, and either IZY or BEL for my daughter Isabella.

My children have a very good local reputation for Galaga and Klax

[nellwyn5]

JAY cause it's my name and it fits. Sometimes if the mood strikes me YO!

[Ed Oscuro]

EAH, preferably with a single line forming the middle horizontals in the letters :P

I remember having some wierd stuff for use in WinPC shooters back in the day...the one that stands out was "The Amazing Zordoe." Go figure, I was a little kid :D Then there's the immortal Captain Hero (have to create a game around the character sometime) and a few others.

Ed O would fit, but I only use it if I've got enough space.

For three letters, it's always EAH.

Say, I wonder what the first arcade title was that let you input three-letter initials by your score?

[Funk Buddy]

My friend Steve used to put BAA on any game we'd play, it stood for Beat Anyones Ass. He thought that was so great, too bad it wasn't true! Another guy used H2O all the time, his last name was Waters. I used JAA or AAA most of the time. Kept it simple for a simple guy.

Not to thread jack but, has anyone done a topic like this for the names you'd use for characters? I'll have to start one if there isn't. Man we used to have a ton of nasty, potty humor names for the characters we'd play. I remember bringing a system to my folks house and my mom saw the names we used, that was interesting!

[Oobgarm]

O O B

Obvious reasons.
