Who wrote FS1?

We all know Jason Scott was the lead writer on FS2, my question is, who wrote FS1?

I'm 90% sure Jason had no involvement in the first game (maybe I'm wrong).

Did the game developers (Mike and Matt) just write it themselves?

Ah, so it was basically the devs cobbling together a story between them, that makes sense

Goober5000:
It was primarily Adam Pletcher.  IIRC one of the SpaceGameJunkie interviews mentioned that it was his idea to make a space game in the first place, and he wrote the story outline.  He's also listed as Lead Game Designer.

Jason Scott must have been involved with Silent Threat though, because he voices his namesake Admiral Scott in the briefings.

With the writing though? If so he must've been in a rush or off his game, cuz the writing in that was terrible.
