][avok is a resident of Virginia, USA and has been playing VGA Planets since he stumbled across the VGAP version 3.0 shareware package while looking for "Something New" to add to DF's BBS back in the early 90's. When he's not playing VGAP, Joe can be found tinkering with computers, learning something new about Great White Sharks, trying out some other wargame, GASP! and playing with his pitbull Zoe. |

Favorite Quote: "If it's only a game... Why keep score?" - Worf |
| Desert-Fox (DF) has been playing VGA Planets since version 3.0 came out. He ran a BBS for over 10 years first as a Commodore 64 system, called the Oasis. Later after switching over to an IBM style PC he renamed the board to S.A.T.U.R.N. The BBS's' had many varied functions including doors (games), and he ran a door that had been written by the Sharenet Trolls for VGA Planets. Many a game has been played there and many a asswhupping has been applied...AND received. When talking about VGAP, DF often says, "It's the BEST $15 I have ever spent. I've gotten WAY more than $15 worth of entertainment from it....Thanks Tim." |

Favorite Quote: "It is well that war is so terrible, or we should get too fond of it." - Robert E. Lee |
| Snake Vargas has been battling his enemies with the DOS version of VGAP since the early formation of the Echo Cluster. Using an assortment of tools from VPA, to Informer, to Fleets; Snake Vargas tends to spend countless hours analyzing his turn and mapping his attacks. Always a fan of the fighter races he's played extensively as the Evil Empire and Colonies of Man, with a sprinkling of games using all the other races. He's been know to talk a little "smack" in the inter-space messages with witty lines like "I'm gonna take this Virgo. Shine it up real good. Turn that sombitch sideways and shove it straight up your candy ass!" in an effort to lighten up the experience of murdering millions of enemy clans. |

Favorite Quote: "Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference. The US Marines don't have that problem." - President Ronald Reagan |
| Nfredible is still fairly new to the game, but has been invaluable when it comes to helping me with the site. He's been available day and night for trouble shooting, critiques and countless other tests since CM's inception. Nfredible has even gone to my place and logged into the server to check AutoTroll issues out for me when I can't physically get to it myself. It's time I've added him to the staff. His game is improving too, so watch out!!! |

Favorite Quote: "It's just a flesh wound." - The Black Knight |
| WarpedBoard is relatively new to the quest to conquer the Echo Cluster, having been introduced to the game a few years ago by a co-worker. Since then, however, he's been frantically juggling work, wife, daughter, woodworking (power tools!), and the destruction of all who would oppose him. Recently he's started putting his programmer background to use in the VGAP world by fiddling around with creating add-ons and scenarios, thereby fulfilling in some small way every little geek's dream of growing up to be a game developer. |
