| − | [[http://www.ianbennett.net Ian Bennett]], aka '''B'man''', has been a part of the scene since late 1999.

| − | B'man was originally known as ''Bennettman'' - his Ezboard username is still such, and the ''SFGHQ'' still knows him as such.

| − | He first joined the short-lived Chao information and competition site '''''Chao Garden Intelligence''''' in late 1999. After ''CGI'' became defunct he joined the '''''Hidden Palace''''' as a graphics editor (and a bad one, to be perfectly honest); however, ''HP'' also died within a few months. During this time, he made acquaintances with [[Dreadknux]], Webmaster of the [[The_Sonic_Stadium|Sonic Stadium]].

| − | After ''HP'''s death, B'man joined the '''''Sonic Fangame Headquarters''''' in mid-summer 2000, initially trying to join a team as a music creator. After failing, he "set up" a one-man team called ''B'man Games'' (the first instance of the name "B'man") working on a Quick Timer Event game called ''QTEzone''. Originally called ''SonicQTEzone'', accusations of plagiarism from ''TGF Team'' (the creator of ''Sonic QTE''), prompted him to change the name. As it was however, the game died after three engine tests.

| − | During development of B'man's second attempt at a game, ''Sonic Light'' (which also died after two engine tests), he joined with Cinos Hedgean to create [[http://www.w00ty.com/tisoft Team Infinity Software]], which eventually consisted of six members. The team as a whole created a number of [[hoaxing|hoaxes]], ''The Games Factory'' libraries and tutorials. Their only game, Shadow Returns, also died after one demo but holds the dubious honour of being the longest demo (in terms of levels), and the flashiest one, released at ''SAGE March 2002''. After this release, the team mostly became inactive.

| − | After leaving SFGHQ due to an unnecessary argument with the staff, B'man left the scene, eventually to come back to the '''''[[The Sonic Stadium|Sonic Stadium]]''''' sometime in 2003. As a PHP/SQL programmer, he helped Dreadknux with the ''SSMB'' forum, gradually going from a member, to staff, to administrator after former admin ''omega13a'' was banned. Currently he is technical admin for most of the sites on the Sonic Stadium Network, as the programmer of the script central to tSS' ''Project Grandslam''.
