Tinker?

[Brian]

Does anyone know exactly what "Tinker" does? I heard it's an easier way of swapping or capitalising your gamertag, anyone want to fill me in?

If that is what it seems like then I would want it.

Tinker? Where did you hear this from? Sounds interesting.

I remember Phenom using the term, he said he used it to help swap Catholic's gamertag or something like that. I'll message him when he's on, I was just hoping someone else knew what it meant in the meantime.

Nope man, I've never heard of Tinker. Sounds pretty dope though, so it's like method to not get turboed or something? Because that's like impossible.

We were going to use Tinker but instead ended up putting like 6 something Geschenks on it. He had 3 and I had 3, with me also having a TurboPro on it. You don't want too many running at once or it'll slow them down.

Oh okay, sounds interesting. But is there like any advantage to user tinker? I'm just curious to why anyone would use it over normal swapping.

He didn't explain much about Tinker, but just that he never got turbo'ed from using it. It's a little easter egg type game almost where you can change your gamertag so I'd imagine there are some benefits. What I have heard is that if you swap from it, the original owner of the account you did it from won't be able to call it in and get the actual tag back. That's what Lethal told me.
