Sorry in advance if this is not the right location to post this--I spent about an hour browsing the forum, looking for information or where I could post. No such luck. I did find a handy flowchart on posting to the forum though, but it didn't answer my question.

I recently did two videos about EverQuest, like a making of history sort of deal; they were pretty decently received and in one of the video comments someone mentioned that the history of Project 1999 might be worth delving into. I wholeheartedly agree.

I know the creators, mods and Project 1999 members are pretty damn busy, so let's cut straight to the point:

Is there anyone from the development team who might be willing to let me do an informal, via e-mail Q & A? It's solely for gathering information about how this thing got started, the motivation, how the agreement with Daybreak was founded, etc., the sort of stuff with how Project 1999 is what it is today.

Your answers, your stories and whatever else you decide to tell me can remain confidential. I won't publish, write or speak about something I'm not given permission to. Just know that my ultimate goal for this is a video about how Project 1999 got started and the people that created it. Your total involvement in this process is entirely up to you, I won't harangue or harass anyone, promised. =)

EDIT:

I felt like trolling but Baler is more fun.

I guess I'll plug for you:

EQ history videos credited to him

Still it wouldn't be the first time someone claimed they were someone they weren't. again cynical.

Leave it to baler to let his paranoid side out, and to dig up any personal things he could find on the OP.

I didn't realize a forum system had PMs, I thought this was a public foray kind of deal. It also seemed odd to say my name is Nickadimoose, when my name on the forum is Nickadimoose. It felt redundant I guess.

I'm not sure what type of harmful blow I could deliver to the creators of Project 1999 with my request, but that's not intention. Again, this is solely to delve into the history of Project 1999 and really nothing more. I have no malicious or trolling ambition. I guess just chalk this public post up to nothing more than naivety on my part? I don't often use forums.

There was a roleplay forum when I was like 12? I don't think I've used one since then, so my bad. Would it be better to delete this post and then use the Dev Watcher list to PM everybody?

Edit: no worries, I guess it does seem odd as hell that a guy comes out of the blue to a forum with 0 prior posts. I'm not sure how to prove I'm not maliciously trying to hurt someone or something. I promise I'm just an incompetent idiot!
