Has anyone done this at arcades?

My initials are boring, so yes I did on occasion use the likes of ASS and f*k for initials. Even now I would be a bit tempted just for a bit of fun

I started entering things like SEX and LSD on Bubble Bobble only after I learned about the cheats behind them. When I saw other people doing it I thought at first the game was just censoring it on you.

I used to help out in a bar that had one of those bartop trivia machines. Every now and then the vendor guy would come in, take the money out, and clear the scores. This one bartender would then get on it, get a good score, then intentionally try to get a series of incrementally worse scores so he could spell something. You'd go over later and read KSS MYY HRY ASS BOB.

My name is only 3 letters so it always fit in nicely - not that I ever got a high score very often. The pinball table at the bar I go to has plenty of space if you get a high score, so I usually just put "your mum"

In the top 20 I once saw a few that we're making a sentence, So I got to the spot below and entered SIR. It spelled out YOU HAV THE CAN SIR

Amazingly, my town actually once had a pizza place with a fairly large arcade section, and it was chock full of all sorts of awesome games. The food there was pretty decent as well, but the games were the main attraction, and despite nearly all of us owning consoles and computers capable of pushing HD graphics, my friends and I still had a blast playing these old machines, pumping them full of quarters, and of course posting our high scores. That said, I was so proud of the high scores that I got that I would almost never enter anything other than my full initials.

I had always put in EMT and those were actually my initials. Maybe not real funny since it's not anything inappropriate.

Ah, pal, I've done this so many times. And it's still awesome.
I mostly wrote PEE and PPO [I tried writing "popo" there and ended up with ppo since it sounds kind of similar. It also means "butt" in Turkish. >:3]
I, now, mostly write FUC or RVT [Robocop Vs Terminator!]. I never really wrote my real initials though. Kinda amuses me though.
