One of the sites Illy linked to | One of the sites Illy linked to, modestly called "Oni Stuff", was run by a fan named [[User_talk:Ssg|Ssg]]. The site documented much of the inner workings of Oni's game data. In October of 2005, a member of OCF named [[User:geyser|geyser]] suggested using Oni2.net to host a wiki which could store this information in an easily-editable format so that others could help in the reverse-engineering efforts.
