My game handle "Baron1282" was first created in 1995. I was coming up with my very first e-mail account and picked the name "Baron12_82". I used Baron1282 as my gaming handle as most websites don't like the underscore.

Baron1282 was born out of playing Dynamix "Red Baron" which came out in 1990. That is how I came up with the first part of my username. My brother and I played the heck out of that game. We also had rules for career mode, if we were to die, we had to make a new character and start the war again. Needless to say, we became skilled "Red Baron" pilots.

The 12 was because I was 12 at the time and 82 was the year I was born. You think gaming is your ally, but you were merely adopted by gaming. I was born in it, molded by it!!
