Just want to single out a few guys who don't really get their praises sung enough (by me included):
King Morgoth
Contest and board veteran. One of the greatest Oracle competitors of all time and one of the few people who "safeguard" the great Oracle contest, cuz the rest of us would assuredly **** it up. I admittedly haven't talked with him much over the years, but he's always been courteous and professional. A class act.
Kaxon
Curmudgeonly old man! Morgoth's partner in crime. Another longtime board and contest vet, and another terrific Oracle competitor. Kax heads the actual Oracle topic these days while Morgoth heads the site. I've spoken to Kaxon more throughout my years here, and he's an all-around great guy. Remember: the Oracle winner gets a free game. How cool is that! Thank Kax and Morgoth for that (I'm not sure who pitches in, so let's just say both do >_>).
Master Moltar
Creator and Host of The Analysis Crew, the finest bunch of blowhards to ever discuss a GameFAQs contest match. Moltar doesn't post here nearly as often as he should. It's a fact that saddens me at times, because he is absolutely one of the coolest and funniest guys here. Guy's cracked me up on many occasions. Hell of a Brawl player too. EW BRAWL EWWW
XCarvengerX
Habitual topic bummer, helper, and all-around nice guy. Carvey helps with the day-to-day operations of the Oracle and has helped with just about everything under the sun. Things wouldn't run nearly so smoothly during contest season if not for him.
Team Rocket Elite
I've heard it said that this site would explode if TRE left for five minutes. Now that I've had years to think about it... I think we're underselling him. I'm pretty sure my computer would explode.
