In the Xbox version of Halo: Combat Evolved, if you create a new profile (or edit an existing one), or creating a map name and call it ".fortune" (dot located with shift on), a random saying will appear on the screen.
The ".fortune" on the text box will then also instantly disappear, thus rendering ".fortune" an impossible account name. However, if you place a symbol at the beginning (such as a left parenthesis) to make "(.fortune", and subsequently use the arrows to move to and delete the parenthesis when finished, ".fortune" will remain, allowing you to use it as a profile name.
