SO COME ON DOOOOOWN!

For the record, I'm not doing this solo. I will need some help.

I'm now imagining Spain Sun—or rather, my mental image of Spain, who doesn't actually look like him—in a "detective" outfit.

Oh right, the topic. I'll help if I can, since I always enjoy the challenge of digging something up. Can't guarantee anything, though.

Thank you, Central Avenue.

You can be my Deux.

I used to play quiz bowl. This sounds right up my ally.

Welcome aboard, merton.

Anyway, we have our first assignment.

The Mysterious Island of Missed was a weird spoof of Myst, made entirely in HTML because this was 1996 and Flash wasn't really popular then. It taught you important lessons about how to run an interesting website and attract viewers. I played it a lot as a kid, but now it seems to have disappeared.

So far I've found references to a spoof called "The Mysterious World of Missed" (off by just one word), but all the links are broken.

Now to find a mirror...

Is this what you're looking for?

YES IT IS. I could have sworn it was Island, not World.

Yes! Our first successful find!

*high-fives all around*

Damn, we're good.

I'm surprised just how many Myst parodies there are out there. There's also Pyst and Mylk...

So.

Any cases today?

Nah. The missed thing was what I had been wanting for forever, so I'm content.
