Just What Happened Here?...

1998. I remember being part of an online Bard's Tale fan chat where myself and some other people were tossing the idea around about creating our own Bard's Tale IV since we were so die-hard about the series and frustrated about Interplay/Electronic Arts et al not picking up the reins and doing it themselves professionally.
I remember spending late nights at the kitchen table writing out items to be incorporated into the game. Ice Bows come to mind for some reason.
I also remember Jon Starnes and others saying they had named a monster after me, the "Dorendor".
It's a little hazy now, but I think I left the design process due to conflict of interest and a few personality clashes.
So a decade passes, and I come back here. What's happened? It's...dead...
Anyone want to fill me in?
