Starcade/YMMV

Crowning Music of Awesome / Ear Worm: The 1983-84 theme, composed by the husband-wife duo of Mindseed.
Fan Community Nickname: "Starcaders". The contestants were also called this occasionally.
Moment of Awesome: One "Starcade Hotline" segment showed Geoff playing (and beating!) Sinistar after a taping.
The Scrappy: Mark Richards. Alex Trebek looked more like he was having fun.
What an Idiot: One Richards-era contestant was shown Donkey Kong in "Name that Game" and got it wrong.
