Decipher Hall of Fame
Decipher inducted a few Young Jedi players and volunteers into their short-lived Hall of Fame program. The only name which could be verified to have been inducted was Colorado-based Mark Ponting. As a volunteer for the Jedi Council, Ponting had only one notable playing achievement, which was to win the North American Continental Championship in 2001. Ponting is also credited for building the decks used by 2001 world champion Katie Billings and was given credit by 2000 World Champion Ian Vincent in a post-tournament interview for designing at least one of the decks he used in his victory. Ponting was also a writer for Decipher's web sites and dedicated much of his free time working with Colorado vendors and players; Ponting, along with the other volunteers, worked hard to assure the success of the game in the state of Colorado.

Famous quotes containing the words decipher, hall and/or fame:
“Thus it seemed that this one hillside illustrated the principle of all the operations of Nature. The Maker of this earth but patented a leaf. What Champollion will decipher this hieroglyphic for us, that we may turn over a new leaf at last?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Having children can smooth the relationship, too. Mother and daughter are now equals. That is hard to imagine, even harder to accept, for among other things, it means realizing that your own mother felt this way, too—unsure of herself, weak in the knees, terrified about what in the world to do with you. It means accepting that she was tired, inept, sometimes stupid; that she, too, sat in the dark at 2:00 A.M. with a child shrieking across the hall and no clue to the child’s trouble.”
—Anna Quindlen (20th century)
“Today one does not hear much about him.... The fame of his likes circulates briskly but soon grows heavy and stale; and as for history it will limit his life story to the dash between two dates.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
