- Lisa Gokongwei and Aurora Mangubat, for deciding to bring in a videogame magazine
- Denis del Callar and Neil Palabrica, for giving me the chance to make my own decisions.
- Ed Geronia, Jaykee Evangelista, and the rest of the GM staff. Next to the FHM people, I think we had the most fun at the office
