Ricky Tilton (also known as Gideon) is the founder of Smash World, Smashboards, and this wiki. In March 2008, Gideon sold his websites. Since then Gideon has not been involved with the Smash community in any sort of capacity.
Smash World
Smash World was founded in June 1999, when Tilton was 13 years old. Since then, the site's forums, Smashboards has become the most prominent competitive Smash Bros. community, with over 100,000 registered users and 6 million posts. The site was mentioned in a Nintendo Power interview in the September 2005 issue.
Major League Gaming acquired Smashboards in 2008 for an undisclosed sum. The money earned through the sale of the website has helped Tilton pay for college and medical school.
Personal life
Tilton was born in Gap, Pennsylvania and graduated from Calvin College in 2008 with a degree in biology. He plays tennis competitively and was a member of Calvin's tennis team[1].
