Name (if comfortable giving out) and/or origin of screen-name: Chris. My screenname, Sneeko, is a shortened version of SneakyCracker. This was an earned name - years ago, I was in a heated match of det pack only deathmatch in Goldeneye on the N64. I figured out that you could pick up a kevlar vest, place a det pack in its place, and a new vest would eventually respawn on that same spot. The next person who came along and grabbed that vest would also get blown to pieces by the det pack hidden underneath it. After pulling this off against a buddy, he called me a sneaky cracker. It stuck.
