Talk:XYZZY Awards 1999

Best Individual Puzzle
About the the Best Individual Puzzle: I think the water puzzle in "Break-In" was a nominee and the gypsum flowers in "Jewel of Knowledge" were not. My sources are:
- The official XYZZY Awards page and the R*IF thread about 1999 XYZZY Awards nominees.
- The 1999 XYZZY Awards ifMUD ceremony transcript (on Andrew Plotkin's website). There, GuyStuckInAChair tells what the nominees for Best Individual Puzzle are. He does mention "Break-In", but doesn't mention "Jewel of Knowledge" himself: it seems to be a joke by Thazz. --Eriorg 10:48, 15 February 2007 (EST)
