Ikon, use a group my boy. hehehe
Standardization is king!
Only reason why I actually think I should mention this is, because at work doing this nearly every day, if you continue to add users into the sudoers file then you may just mistype something and kill sudo sys-wide. Better to have groups you can simply add users to, again, you will still need to initially config sudoers, but, adding more people down the track is easier.
And again, you are supposed to use visudo to get around /etc/sudoers corruption, but, as Jokob mentioned the file itself, manual editing should be as limited as possible.
