 ===== Trivia =====
-Strykergang has on occasion been led by 'second in command' officers [[PandaPieForAll]] in [[16.0]] and [[26.0]], and by [[Falklands]] in [[35.0]], and briefly in [[29.0]] and [[31.0]]. Following the official retirement of the group in late 2022, former officer [[Voth]] was declared the official successor by Stryker after his victories in [[38.0]], although Voth may also be retiring himself soon.
+**Interim Leaders**
+Strykergang has on occasion been led by 'second in command' officers [[PandaPieForAll]] in [[16.0]] and [[26.0]], and by [[Falklands]] in [[35.0]], and briefly in [[29.0]] and [[31.0]]. Following the official retirement of the group in late 2022, former officer [[Voth]] was declared the official successor by Stryker after his many victories in [[38.0]]. Voth's victory in [[39.0]] was similarly applauded and given the blessing of Stryker, although by this point Voth's group is largely indistinguishable from the old group.
+**Etymology of "Strykergang"**
+The name 'Strykergang' only came into use around 30.0-31.0. It spawned from the -gang meme, as seen in gang weed and anprim gang. In Onion's gigantic discord server, he gave members of each prominent metagroup a role. 'Strykergang' was a popular vernacular term at the time because of the aforementioned memes, and was used as the role name, marking the (probably) earliest official usage of it. Before this, the group was commonly just refered to derivatives of Stryker, like "Strykerfags" or "Stryker's group".
+**Group Symbolism**
+Goldfish -- The Goldfish mascot is a symbol used by the core members of the group dating back to around 25.0. It represents the group's history of countering the famed Brony [[pringles]]
