Gotta trust YouTube on that one.

You're not the 209th obviously...like the 290,499th I assume. Then again...who knows right? XD

This image is from a Gradius game. See those little orange balls? Those are called Options. They follow the spaceship (Vic Viper) and shoot whenever the player shoots with the ship. My nick references that.

However, my more common nick (as a matter of fact, this place is the only one where I'm not using that handle), Red Arremer, is even more easily explained...

Started off with "ethernet" (I don't remember exactly why), replaced the second 't' with an 'x', and put a "Mr" in front to indicate that I am, in fact, a dude.

I wanna change my user name to xboy_in _da_house like my PS3 user name. I've been using xboy or X-boy since 1989.

If you fire off a PM to Gavvie or foreversonic then they should be able to sort it out.
