i bet you guys don't know. All right, i'm pretty sure most of you know them. It's mainly for people, like me, who weren't aware of these 2 facts. I do like this kind of stuff, it's alaways fun/interesting to know..
The hint oracle was created because the FTL people couldn't coupe with all those online- messages in the end (asking for some help)
Interestingly some people then (in a genie forum from back in the days) complained how much stuff the oracle gave them away, making life in the dungeon a bit too easy in the end (+ the fact that the game was already quite short in the 1st place).
Another one:
CSB was not intially planned - at least that quickly (if i read/got things correctly), but due to some players having finished DM in no-time, they felt they had to create a quick adventure to compensate..
In short 2 years of long hard work development, ruined in barely few weeks
