Looking for someone to encode your latest TAS efforts? This page lists members of the community who are capable of encoding to the [EncoderGuidelines|site's standards], and the platforms they are willing to encode for. Active Encoders tend to lurk around the [LiveChat|live chat channels], if you wish to find one.
''[TODO]: add more people to the list!''
