I'm known to my friends as that guy who can talk like Smeagol / Gollum from The Lord of the Rings films, so there's always been that connection. Then one day we were playing a game of football and we needed a team name. So since I was the team captain, I decided that we would be The Golden Smeagols. We all laughed at its absurdity and played the game.
Later on, I decided that TheGoldenSmeagol would be a great game name, so I used it for a couple games (shortened to TGS, some of you saw that as my Brawl name) and a couple of forums. Some guys I befriended on the forum shortened my name, some called me just Smeagol... some TGS... and one guy called me Smeags, and I really liked that. So here I am as Smeags.
