Quite obvious but also plan on changing my name soon, so not sure if anyone will like that.

What are you going to change it too?

Not sure, i mean after seeing my brothers steam name pyrokingkomodo. I think i might need something new to try out, maybe something on the same scale where i choose an animal name but what after not sure.

Right now it is a decision between scorpion, wolf or pheonix.

Hmm, I lIke scorpion.

Yeah but i need to add a couple more words to it and make it unique.

>Kickstarter Trailer

Fucking DROPPED

Hm?

I'd be willing to be a lot of money that it'll never get released and if it does it'll be buggy as hell or incomplete.

Not much of a story, but basically my father and brother needed an account on xbox for certain games. My father wanted it to be after his account in the sign in so obviously it needed to begin with Z, he also wasn't that creative thus Zest Subject. I've simply adopted the name since then.

It's a nickname I've had since middle school.
Once upon a time I was Nuka_the_Goofy, then when I was like 14 or something I changed it to GoofMaster360 but then I realized just how stupid those both sounded.

So I looked for a username that was short and snappy and wasn't taken anywhere, so I played around with short words and sounds and came up with JaxBug. Kept that name for probably a good 3 years or so. A lot of my accounts still have that username since I either couldn't change it, or it was just too much effort to make a new account.

People on xbox started getting confused as to whether to call me Nuka or Jax (someone would say "Hey Nuka" and other people in the lobby would get confused) so I finally changed it to NukaKV which is short for Nuka 'Kal Vargun, which is my super geeky sangheili name from when I was in Halo clans. That's got it's own progression since sangheili names change with rank, but I doubt people care much to hear that story.

Hm, I don't mind, you can tell me the story.

*shrug* Alright.

geeky dino stuff inbound

The key parts in my sangheili name are Nuka, my old nickname, and Vargun, which was a name I kind of just fashioned together after playing around with a to of names. I actually had a whole list that I narrowed down before settling on it. My second choice was Gunam.
Varg in some dead language (I forget with since I was just looking for sounds that sounded sangheili-ish) means wolf, and un means one. So in a sense it would either be "lone wolf" or "wolf one" depending on how you looked at it. Either way, it fit.

So I joined up my first clan, a fairly respectable and sizable one back then, as Nuka 'Vargunee. The "ee" was attached to the names of elites enlisted into the Covenant. I got past the main infantry ranks and got the rank of Ranger, which back then was the introductory rank into Spec Ops. I was finishing up a lot of the novels and really thinking about the lore, and questioned why I kept the "ee" since after the elites disbanded from the Covenant dropped it. So I did, and I kind of started a trend with a few other people on Spec Ops too.

We were actually pretty tight knit, the Spec Ops group...and it was a hell of a lot of fun. At least in comparison to the rest of the clan overall, which had around 150 active players, I think. The Spec Ops Commander was a fucking beast and actually turned a lot of crappy players into really awesome teammates. We obliterated in matchmaking and it was a freaking blast (at least until we started winning game after game by default because the enemy team would just keep quitting...). After a while we even started playing around with HLG (hidden league gaming) tactics just for the lulz and make people go on a mad search for us before coordinating random ambushes.

We also used to have sword dueling tournaments, where we all would kind of get in a huge circle and take turns facing off. The winners were allowed to take the "ai" suffix for sword master which is where my name changed to Nuka 'Vargunai. There were a few cases where the host would have an unfair advantage and be able to win a sword clash illegitimately, so usually when the host was determined  they were unable to participate in that round.

So anyways, that was probably the most fun I ever had. And I gotta say, there's something kind of special about making entire teams quit because a dino squad was kicking their asses hardcore. It tragically only lasted a few months, but they're the best memories I have from my entire clan experience.

So anyways, clan turned sour. Shortly after revealing plans to potentially merge us with another clan, the leader got a concussion and....yeah. He went a little belligerent. Kept join online even when he really shouldn't have, and made a lot of "executive" decisions without consulting the rest of the upper ranks or really telling anyone until last minute.

So blah blah blah drama after disagreeing with the changes and refusing to sign up for the other clan's forum where we were all expected to move to, Mr. Concussion raged one night and put me on a list of "heretics" which I was actually unaware of until I was told later. This list later on became a full blown hit list and people were rewarded for going out of their way to stalk and harass the people in any way whatsoever. They're actually part of the reason I had to start avoiding the flood for a while, because holy crap these guys here obsessive with how far they went. They went after my art galleries, my email addresses, I frequently got random threatening messages on XBL, so on and so forth. Supposedly they celebrated when they found "my twitter" but since I don't actually have a twitter account they obviously had the wrong person. Still feel kind of bad for I heard that they were also supposedly trying to get my facebook and I was alerted numerous times by automated systems that people were attempting to log into my accounts on multiple websites, but no one ever got too far.

After about 6 months of that continually happening (and after I had hopped on board to another clan) I snapped one night, opened up my old test forum (a forum I had to help the old leader test and fix bugs with the website since I was an "unofficial" admin that helped with most of the design aspects) I got his email address, IP, spoke with some of the people he used to be friends with to find out what high school he went to and held onto the information for about a day or two before a friend from another clan told me that they got his password since his website didn't encrypt it. Since he was an idiot and used the same password for everything, I did what he and his lackeys attempted to do to me. I got into random accounts, changed the password, and logged out. I got onto his XBL, snapped a quick screenshot of my elite assassinating his, and signed off. People after that were spooked and kind of left me alone after telling me that they were gonna tell their lawyer or whatever. Nothing ever happened.

Some time flies by and in this new clan I was allowed into the "High Council" or so to speak, and eventually to the rank of Supreme Commander which was a step above the Fleet Master/Ship Master rank I initially had. (I had a tendency of not being the top rank despite being the website owner/admin. As per tradition with High Council ranks, you were allowed to take a middle name. I chose to take Kal, which was the middle name of the Spec Ops Commander of the old clan. So now my name is this big garbled mess...Nuka 'Kal Vargunai

Later on the leader retires and appoints me as the new leader. I didn't want the responsibility though, so I only kept it for a month before passing it off. Things started dying after I did, and since I was done and fed up with everything I sort of stopped caring. They kept me as an "Honor Guard" so that I could still be their admin (probably because I changed my rank on there to Forum Guardian) and they kept operating through their ups and downs. Aside from school and real life keeping me busy, everything just lost it's appeal. It wasn't fun anymore and clans were desperate to recruit anyone so they started grabbing stupid whiny kids who were really fucking annoying. I popped in and out of a few other clans just to say hi to old friends and help people that needed some serious facelifts with their design, but that's about it. This is basically where I dropped the "ai" and kept my name as Nuka 'Kal Vargun, for simplicity's sake.

And that's about it. Funny thing, the way I got to make the people that passionately hated me to leave me alone was by fixing some of their graphics and layout bugs on their sites. After that I was basically able to quietly part my ways without any big fanfare.

tl;dr progression

Nuka 'Vargunee
Nuka 'Vargun
Nuka 'Vargunai
Nuka 'Kal Vargunai
Nuka 'Kal Vargun
