History of T-Bone6
Tyrone MacLean-Wilson, screen name T-Bone6, has been using MegaZeux (MZX) since 1998 and became an active member on the Digiboard forums in 2002. He was born in the projects (Regent Park) of Toronto, Ontario, Canada on December 12th, 1984. It was while growing up in Canada's largest low-income neighborhood where he was given the name T-Bone. For having an initial in his name that began with 'T' and for being a thin individual at the time - hence "bone" at the end. The nick name was given to him once again by a different source, after he applying himself to The Cabbagetown Boxing Club. It was here where Tyrone became a young Torontonian boxing in the ring. The rebirth of the nick name was given to him by his coach and fellow spare mates.
Growing up in the projects wasn't easy for Tyrone. He lost many friends and neighbors due to the violence that plagued the area. ZZT became his escape in 1995/1996 and MegaZeux soon followed in 1997/1998. Tyrone continues to make ZZT and MZX games to this day.
