Please, if you are not staff, don't answer questions in this thread, even if you think you know the answer. Also, please take complains about bans, question about TL as a site, etc to the Website Feedback Forum. |

Fionn is someone who I look up to, as his ability at creating storylines and building hype is absolutely amazing. I also look up to Plexa and KadaverBB as they seem to be pretty cool guys ^^

I've always been amazed by the amount and quality of things Manifesto and Plexa are able to accomplish and it's been a source of inspiration since I first started getting involved in Brood War stuff.

oh yeah, I forgot to add Plexa to my list. Heyoka as well 
Honestly, all the admins are ballers.

Pretty much this. Those guys are crazy dedicated and one day I hope to be about 50% as cool as them maybe.

Why didn't anyone say Nazgul specifically?

When I came onto staff Naz didn't have as much presence as he does today on TL, or at least that was my impression. I believe he was spending most of his time working on LP as opposed to TL. Haji had just blown up so Manifesto basically ran most of TL again (this was 2007-2008). He also did a ton of work on TL while I was just a regular user (2005-2006, he took a leave of absence towards the end of that period).

Manifesto has been my e-idol on TL. Was fun to meet him in Paris in 07. His general no bullshit attitude in personal interaction as well as moderation has been an inspiration and something to strive towards. He never seems to overreact and even when its harsh it's always justified. This all in addition to being a general standup guy and a handsome devil to boot.
I know Plexa does boatloads of shit on and for TL and it wouldn't even be close to being where it is today without him so <3.
And R1CH is the unsung hero of TL tbh.
I'd say something about Naz but since he literally plays nothing but Bloodseeker that kinda takes away from all the rest.

SirJolt in general. This list could go on for a while, tl staff is made up of some awesome people.
That icon is sick. And R1CH is the guy I look up to on TL because he is a super coder. But of course disciple is the mecca of TL admins. I mean look at disciple's art and tell me he's not amazing and his choice of favorite player is impeccable.

When did GMarshal get that shiny sheriffs badge?
Is he here to clean up the mafia?

I think he got it recently. He's been red for a while, but he had the default marine icon that all red's get the whole time.

Oh I'd put Heyoka on my list too, anyone that can simultaneously follow two games scenes and still find time to play both games is pretty cool.

Yeah, Manifesto had achieved legend status by the time I came.

Sometimes I read Heyoka's tweets and get really confused. I don't know if that's awe or just indigestion.
|
Would it be possible for Manifesto to write a guide on How to be as awesome as Manifesto?
|
Wouldn't that lead to an overflow of awesomeness?

Manifesto is the man who first brought me to tl and then one night in Paris in 2007 he told me he loved me. True facts.
