We know failures gained in skill during the late t2a and early UOR era due to obvious bugs that existed at that time.
These known facts tell us a couple things about this topic already. First, skill gain on failures didn't exist in July 1998. Second, it's probably unlikely that two "ninja" patches went in and out during a timespan of a year from that point in time to the end of the t2a days in early '00 before the UOR era was published.
That there tells us that the possibility of this existing during our target date is next to none.
The entire T2A upgrade from the Demo to T2A is a 'ninja patch'.
Like I've said before, find the patch note that introduced rideable llamas and giant toads. How about the patch note that talks about the ways to the new lands?
