What MUDs?

Hm. It was mostly around '95-96. It's funny that I don't recall the name. I'll have to ask my buddy that was on it as well. I recall that it was text-only, there was PK, and also that you could emote leaving a location to fool someone that was chasing you. Maybe it was Empire?

I was playing Asheron's Call after that.

Just curious. I was really into Achaea in high school.

I wrote gomud a few years ago. It's simple, but the basic functionality is there. I updated it with Lua NPC scripting at Gophercon this year.

Awesome. The team will discuss on the next call. :) My pal and I created a text adventure called Dork in '96. It was so good. There was an exploding oven and a yeti. If you timed the yeti chasing you just right...
