OKgamers.com Staff |
When OKgamers first started out, our only focus was to get businesses and gamers alike to post their gaming related events on the site. Within the first 6 months, it became clear that businesses in Oklahoma needed more than just a central place to post their events - they needed consulting, and resources to help them throw tournaments and events; and if they had that? More events would happen.
To help businesses, gamers just like yourself have, and continue to volunteer to help us consult and carry out whatever is necessary to help tournaments and gaming events be a success! Our staff helps online and off. Some help the website it's self, others at tournaments around the state, and all help guide OKgamers.com it's self in what to do! Below are some of the people who make OKgamers the great resource for gamers in Oklahoma that it is!

TULSA ADMIN:
Saif "X A" (XianghuaALPHA)
Original founder of OKgamers.com, I was active in Soul Calibur as a game for years, even going to Nationals for SC2 and SC3. When SC went from a public arcade game to an at home console game only, I found myself without competition. Throwing tournaments to 'get gamers out of their hole' I found I needed a good URL for flyers. Friends pushed for a great URL, better than "TulsaSoulCalibur.com", etc - and OKgamers was born. It started out as AC and Console only, but soon grew to being for all gamers in the Oklahoma area.
I spend my professional time as a graphic and web designer, currently freelancing. This gives me flexiblity to maintain OKgamers.com and keep things going! As a business consultant already, I am often the one to work with businesses to help get them on the path to having a great gaming event!
|
How did you find OKgamers.com
It started to fit my own need, and grew to become something for all gamers in the area. I hope gamers and businesses alike continue to embrace it, and it becomes more and more of a resource! |
Why I signed up for OKgamers staff:
I remain active on staff as it's a fun hobby, and no one has stepped up to replace me. I work as Tulsa's admin and coordinator with Matt currently covering the OKC area.

Oklahoma City ADMIN:
Matthew "TH3 R3LIGION" Kendall
Been with okgamers for nearly two years, got started by driving to monthly h2 tourneys in Tulsa at The Funhouse. First event i ever helped run was Minicon 6.5 i believe, thats really where i came into my own.
Basically my role on the site is Saif's little buddy that helps make decisions and take care of anything that he himself cannot tend to. We have a great personal and working relationship and are really passionate about what we do. |
How did you find OKgamers.com
I found OKGamers acutally playing H2 and meeting some random kids in Matchmaking who invited me to this local Halo 2 tourney in Tulsa and thats how it all started. |
Why I signed up for OKgamers staff:
Funny story actually, I never formally applied for staff as i am from way back in the day. Saif actually kept sending me a link via AIM to put my two cents into a topic in the staff forum and I kept responding saying "there is no staff forum you are crazy" Finally he figured out that he never promoted me to staff, we had a good laugh about it and the rest is history.

Eric, "The Monster Man"
So, Bio's huh? Kk, So TheMonsterMan, the guy behind the monster. In Arkansas on October 28, 1984, the Eric Hammons was born. Playing his first game of Super Mario Bros. he found that games were awesome and never really went outside after that. Anyway, Eric(I will now talk in the third person) plays all sorts of games. RPG's, fighters, Action/Adventure, and anything thing else 'cept the HALOEZ, cuz that's when Eric summons TheR3ligion. Oh yeah, almost forgot, Eric is like the co-founder or something cuz he likes games and stuff, but Eric helps XA run some of the tourneys and junk. Yeah this bio thingy was fun! |

|
How did you find OKgamers.com My brother actually found this site back in 2007 in a Google search, and he told me that there was finally a Melee tournament somewhere around the area. I went to the monthlies ever since, which were the catalyst in myself learning WDing, L-canceling, SHFFL, and other 'advanced techniques' of Melee, until they were over. |
Why I signed up for OKgamers staff:
After I finally registered to the forum, I saw that Saif needed help pretty badly at one event...and I needed the hours for my HS Key Club. When I assisted, I found the experience to be fun and easy going. I wanted to be more informed about what goes on at OKGamers, and have a great source for hours, so I decided to join the staff.

SuperSkidZ
The Names Isaiah. I was raised right here in Tulsa, OK. Ive been playing video games since I was 4, and learned how to start them all by myself on a good ole Comadore 64. I figure I was born to game being as the NES came out the year I was born. I mostly stick to FPS either on the PC or the 360. I have been known to play Soul Calibur a time or two, and have personally had my own rear end handed to me on a silver platter by X A.
|
How did you find OKgamers.com
I found out about Okgamers.com from Rislone. We work together, and he was telling me about TnT one day and I asked him why he didnt tell me about it, and he said I'd been a memeber of this site I would've known about it.
|
Why I signed up for OKgamers staff:
After reading what this site is all about, and Rislone explaining it to me, I realized there have been numerous times that I've wanted to game with someone, and just didnt know how to find anyone to game with. And I figured being a staff memeber, and I figured that helping people in that same situation would be awesome.
