The CAs at the time (oaktown, gimil and I) do not know.
There's a slim chance that Andy or Twill may know.
Lack will probably know.

My gut instinct tells me that not really very many people care that much now in any case...

True, but after all this time, no one has come forward to claim ownership of lucky charms. It would just be nice to find out who. The same goes for the revamp of flying saucers map when gimil had the thread but the artist was asked to stay out of the limelight.

lack did (or commissioned) one version of the flying saucers/classic map. There are a multitude of people with the skills to add circles of varying opacity to a map, so that's pretty much a non issue.

Lucky Charms was a pretty bad experience and left a bad taste; there was a lot of hate for that map when it came out. I'm pretty sure that whoever put it together isn't/wasn't a foundry regular, but that's just speculation on my part.
