When I was making my xbox live account name I started out trying gkinfinity but it was surprisingly taken. Then I tried GeeKay, Geckoking, KingofGeckos, and about a million other combinations of random words that semi relate to my normal gamertag but they were all taken. Then I tried Geckoking1, Geckoking2, etc. and they were all taken up to Geckoking8. Are there really that many people who would take the Geckoking gamertag? That's not all either. I'm pretty sure Geckoing9-Geckoking12 were taken too, plus a ton of others with higher numbers on the end.

I ended up using gkinfinity11 lol.

nick, where did the tag geckoking originate from anyways?

id love to know the backstory of the legendary king of geckos
Dude I honestly don't even really know where it came from. I think I made it up in like... 3rd grade. It doesn't make any sense though because I've never had a gecko, nor do I have any knowledge of geckos.

I guess I'll rant about the most likely reason that I came up with it though. It's story time kids.

When I was younger I lived in the foothills in the middle of nowhere. Everyone who lived around there owned a bunch of land so although there were a lot of places to explore there wasn't really anyone to visit within walking distance. It took around 10 minutes to walk to my next door neighbor's house and he was some crazy guy who had a rabid dog (That thing was creepy. It'd kill animals that it came across for fun and tear them apart without eating them or anything). There really wasn't anywhere interesting to hang out within 10 miles of my house anyways so I always just stayed home. The internet was a new thing back then (slow as ****) and we didn't have video games or cable so I was sort of forced to find stuff to do on our property.

At some point I started catching lizards for fun though. There was a point where I was pretty much always carrying one around. Certain lizards wouldn't really run away for whatever reason and I'd actually put those on my shoulder or in my shirt pocket or something. At one point I brought a bunch to school and my teacher put them in a terrarium. They sort of became the pets for our class. One day I brought in an alligator lizard though and it ***** and murdered all of the other lizards. When all the kids came into class there were just a bunch of massacred lizards lying in the tank and the alligator lizard was sitting there with a few cuts on it. My teacher banned me from every bringing a lizard into class again. lmfao

Anyway, some kid in my class probably mentioned at some point that I was the 'king of lizards' and the name was eventually just transformed. The name gkinfinity was randomly created later and was based off of it. That came about because I tried to create a username on some website in 7th grade and geckoking was taken. GKInfinity was just one of the randomly generated similar names and I just went with it because I honestly didn't care what my username was. I tried changing that too but no one would accept any of the other gamertags I ever created after it. But yeah, that's pretty much it lol.

youtube might be ********.

for example:
1. my video called "xilopryce being cool" is blocked in germany... for some reason...
2. my video called "yoshi's story being cool" is blocked in 239 countries, but still available in 7 countries (none of which i've heard of).

i googled "how many countries in the world" and found a range of answers that were all less than 200 (save for wikipedia's 205 sovereign states).

also, i have a handful of videos that are blocked in russia and ireland. ****ing dmr or whatever.
sopa round 1, i guess.




i'm gonna fall off the grid and live in a forrest somewhere.

keith, all the activity seems to happen on facebook groups now. more easily accessible and easier to discuss there. like then norcal melee group got more people to come to the santa cruz tournament, and the steakcake event group had invited me and nick, and nick got to play all of them.

facebook is great

Yeah Keith I'm still down to hang out sometime if you're free. I stopped by your house last time you were gonna have people over but I guess I misread something because you ended up not being home when I got there. I don't have a car anymore so it's not as easy for me to go places (I have to borrow my brother's car). Just lemme know if you're free and I can probably stop by.

Oh and I saw your new bike on fb. Looks pretty sick
