Hey, I'm Ian/Archi, primary administrator/developer of Groovestats, director of the East Coast Stamina tournament series, and the Godfather of Stamina.

I've traveled the world playing stamina and won several tournaments along the way.

Much of the seminal stamina content was penned by me-- most notably, stuff like Testament of Will, basically every Pendulum chart and several of the charts from Sharpnelstreamz v1 (which were originally from my Disbalance Episode 3 pack).  In addition to that stuff, I've directed and been involved with the process of stepping every single East Coast Stamina marathon (Denjin K Megamix, Pendulum Essential Mix Side A, Pendulum Essential Mix Side B, SRPX-0004, ARK05, and Trails of Cold Stream the 3rd).  I also was a judge for both Stamina Showcase 1 and 2.

========

Most of my playing career has been spent working on stamina and footspeed, so my timing hasn't ended up being super impressive and I don't have a huge number of quads.  I'm retired from FA at this point because it no longer interests me, but here is a list of (most) of the quad-stars I obtained when I still played that stuff.  I think the actual total I had is 30 quads right on the nose.

Quads:

#3: Angels Crying [1/30/2012]
#4: Kung Fu Beat [2/29/2012]

#6: Kitty Cat [3/28/2012]
#7: No Princess (Easy As Pie 3) [3/28/2012]
