Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too
The slipgate post actually cracked me up. And I could understand some of where he was coming from. But what I will say is that while some may be addicted to mudding, there are other addictions out there too. Like coding for a game that you apparently don't want to deal with. Hence it being closed down. So I guess that was a moot point, which is the best that I can come up with at the moment. I guess I said all of that to say this: Don't take it seriously or personally.

Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too
Now, Thomas wrote a much more eloquent message that said most of what I was trying to say. I'm just going to leave all the talking to you since I can't think properly this late at night. I'm a big proponent of the fact that if you don't tell people that they can't, they most likely will. If it isn't written out in stone, people won't know to do it. But sometimes even when written out in stone, there are those who try to lawyer around those rules and find loopholes. I wish that we could play the graphical games as our sighted counterparts. I'm really done now. Jal, falling over. - Original Message - From: Thomas Ward [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Gamers Discussion list gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 6:55 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] slipgate legacy officially closed, a bit offended at the moment, too Hi, As for me personally I don't agree with the general tone of his announcement, but I can agree with many of the points he made in that announcement. He pointed out that MOOs are technologically out of date. That to a large degree is true. We have now reached the point where pvp and good roll playing games are done through 3D graphical clients capable of doing far more for a sighted gamer than text based MOOs. Like everything else that is computer related the sighted users tend to go where they can get the best visual and graphical effects, and those left behind are those with visual impairments that can't use the new graphical software, or those geeks that like the text based MOOs for their own personal reasons. As far as creativity and imagination goes I think he may have a valid point. Far too many mud players tend to use ship and character names from their favorite television shows instead of actually thinking up something a little more unique and personally creative. If, for example, you are playing a mud and discover the ship you are about to fight is named Voyager, Enterprise, or Defiant you would naturally assume the player is a Star Trek fan, and he is most likely pretending the mud is an extention of Star Trek. If you were to engage a ship with a name like the Exicuter, Milennium Falcon, etc you might then assume the player was imagining himself to be in the Star Wars universe. This isn't really all that creative, unique, and may detract from the mud for those players wanting something specifically related to the mud universe and not bring in Star Wars, Star Trek, Battle Star Galactica, etc. As a game developer myself I can understand the developers desire to complain about having to compete with big name science fiction ships and characters as he probably wants the players to use there creativity to improve the mud. To make the mud universe more interesting, more creatively diverse, and not mix and match big name science fiction people, places, and things in the mud. His complaint about players coming up with generic or common names like the Salvager is understandable, but a bit over critical. Not everyone is as gifted with creativity and imagination as he thinks he is, and people just joined to have a good time. Trying to think up a cool ship name and unique character profile does take time, and careful thought. I am guessing the majority of the players just signed up, put any old name they felt like on there ships, and got on with there adventure. Yeah, it might b boring, drab, but for that player it is acceptable. He or she was not informed in advanced they had to think up something cool or unique before joining the mud, and then the developer gets angry at them for their lack of creativity and imagination. Finally, the developer does bring up the issue of people with physical impairments as a type of player that frequents his game. Putting us down as he did was just flat out wrong. We aren't able to move on to bigger and better graphical RPG style games, and he knows that. Treating me or anyone else with a physical impairment as a seperate species of human not worth his time is unfairr, but not really surprising. After all, the majority of the people on this list already know what sighted people generally think of blind people anyway. They either think we are inferior to them and can't do anything they can do, or they see an item on the news about a blind musician and collectively assume that blind people are all going to have equal musical talents. There are all kinds of eronious assumptions sighted people make about blind people, and what we are seeing here is some of that coming to the surface in a negative way from a sighted software developer ready to get out of his current business Do I find his message offensive? No, I don't really find it offensive. I have known for a very long time that many sighted people secretly have negative opinions of people with physical impairments such as blindness. In some cases the opinion is justified when their only encounter is with a blind person who has an attitude of being very winy, complains a lot, or gets

Re: [Audyssey] Miriani - Patrick Fitzpatrick, the MAN, the MYTH, THE LEGEND?
One thing that people really should take in to account is that there is a difference between in character and out of character. There have been a lot of things that have frustrated the heck out of me but I also know that sometimes you just need to take a step back, take a deep breath. And what people don't realize is that if things are a little too intense, you can always close that window for a little while until you are in a better frame of mind. I've done it a time or two. at any rate, no one will ever make everyone else happy in a game. Those of us who like rp over combat tactics get ridiculed, those who tend to play space pirates get accused of being OMG big old jerks with no life, and those of us who are somewhere in the middle get ridiculed on both sides. Not on Miriani persay, but just a general observation from someone who has been mudding for a while. When people start to look at their characters as just that, characters, and not as extensions of their player which is going t give you a world of hurt, then it will probably not be as bad. But since no one is perfect and sometimes people cannot help the way they feel, it can be a mess.

Re: [Audyssey] =iso-8859-1quitemiriani_game_questionworldas_, Pms, 'ounds=
I disagree about the mission thing. There are so many people running missions now and always calling them out over the general channel. In terms of who to hang out with and whatnot, for now a lot of the stunning andf stranding has sort of slowed down. Staring on landing pads is never a good idea especially in sector 24. Not saying that you do this, but I know that many have. Also, insulting those bigger than you can also get you smacked down. But conversely, I feel that there should be less smacking down in general.

The mud is called discworld. The web site is http://www.discworld.atuin.net The telnet address is discworld.atuin.net port 23. The mud is based on the discworld novels by Terry Pratchet, but knowledge of the books is far from necessary to enjoy the game. The guild options are assassins, priests, thieves, warriors, witches and wizards. All the classes have a number of sub classes to chose from. There are families you can join, as well as clubs. You can buy pets, including petegree cats and dogs, parrots and rats. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can go tame a pet moon dragon for yourself. Pk is definitely an option if that's your thing, and there are tons of areas to explore. Best of all, there are a number of blind players there, so if you're having trouble for any reason, one of us would be able to help you out. Also, the newbie helper channel is quite active and there are a lot of nice people. My character's name is Eponine, and I'm around quite often. I will be offline fore another hour or so doing household stuff, but then I should be on for the rest of the day. Good luck, and I look forward to meeting your discworld character soon!

Re: [Audyssey] Star Wars MUDs
LOTJ does not base itself on things such as the battle After Yavin and all of that good stuff. Instead, it has a moving timeline which starts out with maybe one or two clans and the Old Republic era. Then it moves to the second era, which will probably be empire vs. Rebellion, then it moves to the next era which will depends on who will win those conflicts. An era lasts six months, but the timeline lasts for about a year to a year and a half if not a little longer. After all the cards have been played, there is a player wipe and the fun starts all over again. It's a unique way of doing things and helps for organizations not to be stagnant. I used to imm for LOTJ for about three and a half years and played there for longer. I just started playing again a few weeks back and a *lot* of things have changed a great deal. I hope I've helped some and have encouraged you to give it a try.

Re: [Audyssey] Mud in your ear
Hi Chee: It depends on what you are looking for in terms of mudding. For hack and slash goodness along with competitive and fun atmosphere where you can customize a large quantity of things, check out Project Bob. Projectbob.game-host.org port 4000. Discworld was the first mud that I ever played. Discworld.atuin.net port 23. For a more roleplay oriented environment try lensmoor. It is medieval fantasy with classes that you can customize and also has one of the best crafting systems that I have ever seen. lensmoor.org port 3500. I can go on and on, I'm sure. I liked Miriani as well although I haven't been around very much...not one word out of you, Valiant!! I mean it! *shakes fist* I find it difficult to get in to alter eon and it's probably because I really hate old style diku muds. Maybe I'm just a bit of a mud snob...perish the thought. Anyhow, I hope that this has helped. Feel free to check out the mud connecter at www.mudconnect.com I have always believed that it isn't necessarily about accesibility and what the best mud is for blind folks as much as it is what muds are you truly going to enjoy? The muds that tend to burn my cookies are those with ascii maps and no ability to turn them off. If I can't navigate to the land of Kill-em-dead without assistance because there is a graphical representation of the wilderness and then I drown in a river that I had no idea was even there, I'll likely not play it. I hope that I have helped somewhat. also, great to hear that VipMud is out...I've been out of pocket for the past couple of weeks so I have yet to figure out how to get my hot little hands on it, but I'm sure I'll get to that sooner or later. Take care, all. And Chee, welcome to the world of mudding!

[Audyssey] ZMud
Hi everyone: My friend is a die-hard ZMud user. Before upgrading JFW, ZMud read like it was supposed to, but now that she is using version 9 of jaws, it no longer does so. It skips lines, etc. She doesn't want to switch, and she can't get that older version of jaws on her PC since the other one crashed. I thought that I'd read somewhere about a plug-in or a work around that would fix this issue, but at the time I glossed over it figuring that it didn't concern me.

[Audyssey] a few MUSHclient issues
Hi everyone: My laptop died on Saturday night. You know, the last hurrah, and all that. ugg. In any event, I purchased a desktop which uses Vista and am working on reinstalling old programs. Fun for the entire family! You know, sort of like a root canal. With pliers and no Whisky. In any case, I downloaded mushclient and have the JFW plug-in, but I'm having a few speech issues and I don't know if it is from all of the new changes or something I'm doing wrong. I am also using jaws 9. Sometimes when rereading room descriptions with the jaws cursor, it cuts off and ends up reading parts of another program, for example, windows mail folders. It's almost like the program is transparent at times. Also, many times when I am rereading something in MUSHclient, I'll get a message like 'line 100, december 31, 2007' tooltip. I never got these messages before..well, I did get the occcasional tool tip, which I assume is just some random word that is being highlighted. But as for the rest of the extraneous text, it's driving me a little crazy. Sometimes, jaws doesn't seem to focus correctly and I'm not certain what exactly is causing the quirks. What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this so that I can go back to happily mudding? Thanks so much for your assistance.

Re: [Audyssey] Looking for Other MUDs
I should have responded earlier, but I wanted to talk about muds. Firstly, muds are vastly different from one another. So if you are interested in more of a roleplay-oriented mud, some of the ones suggested won't really work out if others are looking for something that requires roleplaying. Personally, I enjoy it all. Muds that might not seem good to one player might be another person's cup of tea. One mud I'd like to suggest is Legends of Karinth. karinth.com port 1234 is a mud that also allows you to roleplay, pick your magical powers, as well as encourages exploration and solving quests. It's quite fun. I will be checking out some of the other muds that were listed. I have checked out godwars2 but sometimes I think the learning curve might be more than I am ready to handle.

Ever tried a new mud and were bored to tears because you didn't know anyone and no one else really talked with you? Part of the fun about mudding is being able to network with other people.

It is enjoyable to work in teams. I know that mudding preferences vary, but maybe we could work something out.

Re: [Audyssey] Quality games was rail racer
as a kinda-sorta possible just-might-be a gamer type person, I find that I really enjoy all types. As with anything, there will always be people who appreciate or don't like complexity. I always found it strange that I am horrible at text adventure games and yet I stuck with mudding like a moth to candle flame. While games like guess the correct word, or battle ship, or other fairly easy scenarios are great, I find that I don't enjoy them nearly as much as I would a game that has plot, conflict, and a story behind it. I want to fight for the greater good, or the greater bad, as it were. I want what I do to not only affect me but to also have an affect on my surroundings. I like for such games to start off so that the new player can get the hang of things, but to progressively become more difficult, forcing a player to really think about their actions and possible consequences. It's okay to get squashed by that cement block that you should have searched for in the first place, and you'll no better next time. Now that it's down, you can't get through the entrance to save the underground village and everyone there is about to be sacrificed to the beasts below, but hey, you'll know better next time! Or maybe next time the trap and the location might change. I've never been great with strategy but I can appreciate the thought and work that goes in to making such a game. I enjoy being challenged and like a game that does just that. I'm also a sucker for magic and all things fantasy based. It would be my hope that if developers make more games with a certain amount of complexity, they would be able to find that niche. Because there will always be people out there who appreciate such challenges. Jal ___ Gamers mailing list ..

[Audyssey] an introduction of sorts
Hello everyone: I thought I'd take a few moments to introduce myself. I'm 27 and live in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Recently, I was told that the gamers list still existed, but in a different form. So,it's great to be here. Where do I fit in where gaming is concerned? I am a mudder at heart and have been ever since 2001 when I first started playing on discworld. I never thought that I would enjoy mudding considering how horrible I am at text-adventure games. I think horrible may very well be the understatement of the year. I am bettter at the roleplay aspects of mudding than I am at the whole leveling and choosing the best equipment. I enjoy different systems, especially those that allow me to be creative, such as preparing crafts. Alas, if only I could find one that focused on what some consider the mundane. I have played on many different styles of muds, from hack and slash to roleplay-enforced. Until recently, I was a staffer on a star wars mud, one of the largest in the SWR family. I spent four years there, but as they say, when it isn't any fun anymore, it's time to move on. Right now, I am staffing on a mud called Project Bob, one of the most customizable muds that i have ever come across. I love it. I don't have to be the rule-enforcement wench, all I have to do is help create content. Hooray! It's fun to get back in to the accessible gaming scene. I used to play DD on audiotips way back in the day and most of the names that I have seen thus far are very familiar to me. I'll draw this to a close, but will say that I look forward to participating in discussions. Take care. Jal ___ Gamers mailing list ..
