Yeah, I was told by staff that Black, White and Yellow were assigned because they were the most 'valuable', and they tended to give it to people who were the most active, showed the best knowledge of the world and theme and were generally helpful oocly.
Never was on Crystal Dreams, but on CM I had... uh
Solian - Singer
Elrick - Medic
Evan - Cuttertech
Damien - Sled Tech
Some random guy who's name I forget that for whatever reason I had adapt Marketer. -
If Ameeko adapted yellow, it might be because I was active as hell and people found my RP on her amusing. She was nuts, but not in the way of usual Singers. She was just kind of... naive, almost? A lot of older Singers sort of wanted to adopt her.
(And then I ran away from the game for a while because one got so obsessed over me / her that they'd throw huge tantrums if I dared RP with anyone else. >.> )
But I do think she may have had a 'higher' adaptation also because she didn't have one of the hallucinatory adapts but more just felt like she had a bad case of the flu.
... a lot of me wants to play again just to be an asshole to Singers on Bob tho.

Always late to the party...
When I noticed the game had fallen off the net I emailed Luthe's player to see what had happened, whether he needed some help, or if I could grab the database and server code to bring it up on another server. I never heard back from him. I contacted a number of people but never managed to find out what had happened.
On color adaptations, originally all were assigned. Brandy used to do it and training took it on after she mostly retired from the game. Later, much later, Vyana wrote code to auto assign adapt colors for singers. Black and white were never part of automatic assignments, players that had contributed a lot to the game usually got those adapts. There were few black adapts, Gyles and Kesya come to mind.
I had a bunch of characters... I vaguely remember also a tuner and sledtech, but I just can't remember the names.
