I was around 12 when I was registering on a german PC forum and I was a bit overcharged when I have to type in my nickname. In the meanwhile I watched a Formula 1 GrandPrix, I think it was in Monza. Then I saw the advertisement for Shell oil called "Helix":  I thought "HeelX" sounds cool and has sounds also scientific (because of "double helix"). 2 or 3 years later I discovered what "heel" means  so, well, if I would have know it before, I had'nt chose "HeelX"  Thats it.

Mercenary II, a.k. Damocles was the first (impressing) Game I bought. (And still the game with the biggest Gameworld I know) If you want to play it, here are all Mercenary Games in one PC-Program: http://www.geocities.com/Paris/7150/mddclone.htm

when i first signed up i was smartjibb, basically because my surname is "smart" and my real-life nickname is "jibb" (at the time more people at school knew me by "jibb" than my real name). i don't know where "JulzMighty" came from but the idea just popped into my head and i like it. it does sound similar to "Julius Miller" which is a name i often go by online, due to a friend calling me "Julius" and... well "Miller" came out of nowhere. i just needed a pretend surname  julz
Formerly known as JulzMighty. I made KarBOOM!

haha, people used to call me Spike as well (When I had my hair in long thick spikes (Liberty spikes as some people call 'em)....
Well, the xXx came from my friend Jason who died of a Meth overdose. He had that at the brginning of his name on Halo, so me and Mike brought it for the ride...
The Guitar part should be obvious. I play the hell out of some guitar....
...and last, but not least, the 511, my birthday (may 11)
