9	Matt is one of the founding members of Adamant Ditto and has been gaming since the age of three. He’s a big fan of everything from Mario to Sonic to Twisted Metal. He handles a lot of the editing, uploading and technical stuff for the group and is always anxious to see where the road takes us. He also sometimes brings his beautiful wife, Carissa, along with him even though she doesn't like video games all that much. She is his future after all so better break her in somehow! Turn-ons include long walks on the beach and pancakes. Turn-offs include Yanma, Sonic Chronicles and Eggman Nega.

83	[[caption-width-right:100:Well, I'm the baddest son of a bitch who ever lived.]]
84	Phil is the [self-proclaimed] baddest son of a bitch that ever lived, but the only evidence he presents to support this theory are that he’s British and likes video games.

His favorite games are pretty much everything in the Mario and Kirby franchises to the point of obsession, the Pokemon franchise, Kid Icarus Uprising, and strangely Pac-Man 2 for SNES. Whenever he appears, expect him to be incomprehensible.
120
121	%% * TheChewToy
122	%%* CloudCuckoolander
123	* PetTheDog: Throughout Kirby's Epic Yarn, he constantly annoys Matt to get unlock a secret level where you can fight [[OptionalBoss Space Kracko]]. Matt ignores him, and skips over that part of the game. Eventually, Matt went back and unlocked all the secret levels, one of was the Space Kracko level. Tim's reaction is priceless.

136	Carissa is Matt’s lovely wife who shows up from time to time and even plays some games with the group. Though not much of a gamer herself, she likes to be involved with things enjoys and he likely tries to get her involved more than she does. When it comes to games she does enjoy, she can likely kick your butt at Tetris and is also quite good at other puzzle games like Bejeweled and Puzzle Bobble. Her favorite game series of all time is The Sims and if that game could be beat, she probably would have done a LTTA of it already. She might be quiet in the videos but don’t let it fool you, when the topic switches to something she loves, like movies or Sims, she has a lot to say.
