I do not believe mastery of a programming language comes from memorizing every last function. You could know them all and still be horrible because you do not comprehend advanced algorithims. Good coding comes from your ability to find the best algorithim and have it happen using whatever functions you can.

You can browse all the functions a graal object has easily, so you can find what you need or what is best, no matter what your task is.

Aside from nominating myself (ego), if Chad is still around, I would say Chad. I also second Tyhm.

I was simply saying that what use would a GST member be to you if he doesn't even understand how a certain function works?

You do not have to memorize a function to understand how it works. You just need good comprehension.

Perhaps the GST member could refer the player to the wiki for help. They can both go through it and help each other understand it.

Eh, memorizing all the functions should not be a requirement for GST.
It's about knowing how to use the functions you know and any new functions you learn in the right way.

Quote from your Wiki:
Zero has mastered, in his eyes, all the concepts of Graal scripting (in both GS1 and GS2). Every day is another day to find out a better way to make a certain script work faster, better and stronger.

Hehe. I'm poking fun at you Zero, don't get too worked up :P
