there's no right answer to this thread... almost all of the names listed here are people who started playing in '06 or later, after the core PvPing groups that set the tone for this server's playstyle had already evaporated. we made jokes about it then, but looking back '06 really was the year that split two definite eras on hybrid. so all the names i'd list would be people you've never heard of... but here are a few, in no particular order, and totally off the top of my head, all pre-2006:
grey
chucky
jenova
wade
fcm
wyte
urinal cake
lod
wu gambino
revol reggin
chucky
aeon flux
elminster
pisces iscariot
droopy (when focused)
tanis (when strong like bull)
DynatiouS (when trolling DF forums)
esk
puppet
romey (GET PUMPED UP)
ironfist max
pax romain
i think if i had to pick just one for all-around ability and straightforward no-rage-just-competition pvp mentality, it would be esk
also it's worth noting that my own name was in consideration and did not make the cut... i hung around and participated with all these guys, and kept up fine... but i didn't really stand out until after they had left, and even then have never considered myself the best at anything on here. i'm good, but my legacy on this server doesn't involve a single facet of involvement or impressive capability. i was just a great guild whore with connections and a friendly attitude
