[Audyssey] Does anyone play Avalon mud?
Hi. I've been investigating muds that need to have db entries (I just put one up for flux world today), ie, muds that offer some sort of screen reader mode with low spam, ascii map alternatives etc, plus of course dipping my toe into muds is always fun. One game I keep seeingkicking around is Avalon mud. it has some great writeups that actually sound my sort of thing, lots of exploring and a combat system that sounds very different indeed, however I do wonder about some things, and also while someone was on the audiogames.net forum last year he was a little none specific if the game had any adaptations in and of itself for screen readers, indeed the only mention I can see of anything screen reader related on site is a listing for mushclient as a compatible client for Jaws. So, does the game have some screen reader settings? and also, if anyone is playing, what is it like? I particualrly am interested sinse the game is at least semi commercial. That is new players start free, but at some point after completing novice training a newbie has to either get sponsorship from either an existing in game organization, such as a city or guild (which apparently most do), or pay a monthly fee of 7.50 usd a month. So, what is the game like? All the best, Dark. There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is vast and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars than even the archmaesters of the citadel can dream. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] Does anyone play Avalon mud?
hi Shannon. One thing I do wonder about if there is no screen reader low spam mode is how combat works, sinse the system sounded interesting but text intensive, and personally I'm not overly keen on having my voice at stupid speed (sinse I always want the atmosphere of a mud). Unfortunatelyk, if there are no screen reader adaptations I can't countenance giving the thing a place on audiogames.net, but that doesn't mean it might not be fun either way, the writeups on the world and guidls and quests and things to do certainly got my attention. All the best, dark. There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn.

I like Avalon a lot. I’ve not known of any screen reader specific settings. Navigating the areas can be difficult, since the map is not accessible, but if you keep a file of directions to certain places, that works well. There are a wide variety of professions to choose from. It’s pretty RP intensive. Questing is a big part of the MUD, as it’s one major way to gain experience. Let me know if you have any other questions. Shannon On Jul 5, 2015, at 12:58 PM, dark d...@xgam.org wrote: Hi.

[Audyssey] unlocking arena after maya ruin in audio defence
Hi Does anyone know how to unlock the arena after maya ruin? It doesn't even show up but I thought I saw somewhere that the devs had made it and put it in the update. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Re: [Audyssey] unlocking arena after maya ruin in audio defence
Hi David. Maya ruin is still the last arena in the game unfortunately. In the old version before the update you got text saying the arena was locked but you could double tap and play it anyway, so this is I believe what the devs meant when they said unlocked last arena that they'd fixed the link to the mayan arena (maybe they didn't even know it was playable before). I do hope we see more arenas in the future, especially the chance to compete in the zombie gladiator show itself and take on Dr. bastard. Beware the Grue! Dark. There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is vast and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars than even the archmaesters of the citadel can dream. - Original Message - From: David Bartling dbartling...@gmail.com To: gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Sunday, July 05, 2015 8:27 PM Subject: [Audyssey] unlocking arena after maya ruin in audio defence Hi Does anyone know how to unlock the arena after maya ruin?
