YABA4 - thanks
Game Control
Game Control was a skeleton crew, consisting of Jennifer
van Stelle and Alexandra Dixon. Between us, we wrote all
of the clues and hints (several based on ideas suggested
by friends), and produced the entire game.
{Jen van Stelle is an absolutely amazing person, the
most competent, creative person I know. I was very lucky
to have her as my co-GC for this game. Her bio follows
immediately hereafter- Alexandra}
"Jennifer van Stelle has been writing (and playing
in) treasure hunts since her high school days. In addition
to running various private games, she cooperated with
Alexandra Dixon in writing and organizing the first annual
Bay Area Treasure Hunt (BATH) in 2001, and the fourth
annual Young Alumni of the Bay Area (YABA) treasure hunt
in 2002. Currently a Ph.D. student at Stanford University,
Jen studies social networks, regional economies, and organizational
sociology. Oh, and she's madly in love with fellow treasure
hunt meister Dave Blum, also known as drclue.com,
whom she met at a BATH game."
