Cyan Contest



Shorah, Lysters!

At the end of July, an impromptu contest was held to generate a list of
Myst/Riven/D'ni/Cyan/etc. trivia questions. I received around 300
questions, and have spent my free time (any time not in design meetings
for our next project) sorting the questions, culling the duplicates, and
verifying the answers.

There were many duplicate questions. In the case of duplicate questions,
I used the question I received first.

(For those interested, the three most duplicated questions were:
1) What was used to make the leather texture on Gehn's bed?
2) How old was Anna when she first went to D'ni?
3) What was the name of the virtual "stuntman" used to verify the scale
of the computer models?)

With that done, I compiled the list of people whose question(s) were
used.

Here's the list, along with the number of questions used and the poster
they will receive.
