The Monkey Island SCUMM Bar: All those credits

Ok, so most of you probably have known about these for years, but in case you haven't seen them before, this thread over at our forums can reveal some... interesting... credits, like:

Tim Schafer would like it made clear that while he is bitter about not being given adequate credit for Monkey Island 1 and 2 that he is in NO WAY associated with this game until he sees if it is really any good at which time he will remind everyone that Guybrush Threepwood was really HIS idea.

And...

LucasArts Entertainment Company Presents The Curse of Monkey Island. Created by Jonathan Ackley and Larry Ahern. Programmed by Jonathan Ackley, Chuck Jordan, Livia Mackin, and Chris Purvis
Temporary Art by Bill Tiller, Larry Ahern, and the programming team. Please note that there will be a lot more credits later when the project is closer to being finished. So, please sit back and enjoy the good clean adventure game fun.

Hey, well, the fun you can have with SCUMMRev has no limits! Or which ever program one uses for stuff like this. Now be quiet.

I remember finding that file years ago! Thought that Tim Schafer part was fantastic! interesting, eh lads?

Ok! This was interesting, didn't know that Tim was the brain behind guybrush. I'm curious, when reading this it seems that Ron wasn't the only man who knew the secret. Is it confirmed that Dave Grossman and Tim Schafer also knew the secret? Just wondering

Remember that Ron, while being the one who came up with the idea for the game, was only one of the designers. Particularly the dialogue was largely written by Schafer and Grossman, who obviously would have to know all the details around the game to be able to do that.
