tbf, snacky says "I didn't have access to all the meta. But since I was planning events and status perks, and answering player questions, I was told pieces from time to time, so I've assembled the bits I know below."

i saw her say on plurk that it took her a long time to write that up because she had to pull all things together in a cohesive fashion. and kale said on plurk that he was given a meta doc from kam, and it sounded like it had stuff snacky didn't know on it.

so it does sound to me like it was random stuff she was fed piecemeal which she then tied all together.
