Keep in mind that it is somewhat of a motley crew. Most of them didn't even believe they were translating the pure Greek text. You have folks there who have alexandrian concepts, you have majority text folks. You have "I dunno" folks. Maybe there are a few who are at least pure-TR. (I found one who might qualify, out of about seven .. granted a few names stood out whcih clearly are far from TR.)

And then you have translators of the night who work on any available project (e.g. ESV, NIV one night, NKJV the next).

Shalom,
Steven
