I don't remember, but I think it was a Google search. :P I might have found it in someone's Sierra forum profile though.

It was in a an issue of Computer Games Magazine, in which the article wasn't even about you! It was about the AGDI remakes! I still have the issue! (I save all of my magazines!)

I was desperately hoping for a better sequel than KQ8... XD I found the site fairly early on in its history.

I tried using Yahoo for something a few days ago and its results were somewhat similar, but the first result was far less relevant than Google's first. 

Their PageRank pwnz. ;P

What the crap!? was I the only one here that heard by word of mouth!? :P
Title: Re: How did you...
Post by: Oldbushie on May 01, 2006, 10:12:56 PM
I guess so...

I try to tell a lot of people about this project though, but none of them join the forum I guess. XD

*doesn't know many hardcore King's Quest fans that live nearby*

I voted Other. It was a mixture of word of mouth(overheard it mentioned), finding someone linking to the site, and Google(to find the link)... I think. :P

The only person who's heard of KQ around here is my 7th grade Language Arts teacher, and she doesn't work at my school anymore. :P She said she played KQ3, but couldn't find a way to get out of the house. XD

I was bored (not to mention depressed after playing MoE) so I randomly started typing in sites, I tried King'squest.com, robertawilliams.com, kq9.com, kqix.org, and finally kq9.org :P

Post by: Eros4tw on May 03, 2006, 08:14:36 AM
I actuaily found this sight completly by accident...i didnt even know they were doing a next version of the KQ series until a few weeks ago.  I was originally looking up info on KQ6 (because i had lost the booklet) and oddly enough there was a link to a page that talked about KQ9.  From there i just found it on my own.

With was sorta like that. Basically i was bored one day, after doing an old game mariathon beating the KQ games up till the 6th. On one of the cds there was/is a trailer of KQ7 so i thought that by now there should be a 9th or 10th already and googled for it and guess what... i was almost right  ::)

I was stuck in one of the games *can't remember which one* and I was searching Google for hints. ;D

Post by: Lollotte on May 04, 2006, 11:39:06 AM
I can remember the night I decided to Google KQ. I had done it once a week several years before, and had given up. I thought there would never be a KQIX. But--lo! I was ecstatic!  ;D

Some years ago, I was using my Ouija board when it suddenly spelt "kq9.org" (which is very strange, since it only had Hebrew letters). I immediately entered a trance, where I was possessed by the spirit of Robera Williams and recited the entire game plot from start to finish, in fluenet Aramaic; However, I completely forgot about it a second later, and all I had left to do is join the forum and harass people with silly questions and sillier stories 8)


Nahh... I got here through a link on the AGDI site :P

But that's a bit like the chicken and the egg, isn't it? :S
I mean, where else did you get their e-mail address, if not on the site?
