----*l You are lost in a misty graveyard. Inscribed on a modestly austere tombstone here is the name, "Richard the arch-wizard". A horrifying  zombie (zombie9) stands in your way!  Corwin the sorcerer is here carrying a firestone4. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "How did you first discover MUD2?". Corwin the sorcerer says "When I was playing on British Legends on Compuserve, was quite a few  players from there that also played Mud2". The zombie9 drags itself off. A horrifying zombie (zombie9) stands in your way!  Corwin the sorcerer says "That would be back in first half of 95 i believe". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Which incarnation of MUD2 was that?". In the distance, you hear the rumble of thunder. Corwin the sorcerer says "Iplay, a witch from BL was the arch there, so that tended to be the one  the people I knew that played, played on". The zombie9 drags itself off. A horrifying zombie (zombie9) stands in your way!  ----*push z9 o With a bit of effort, you push the zombie9 out. The zombie9 drags itself off. Corwin the sorcerer says "I was just about to kill the bugger". Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer has just fallen asleep. Corwin the sorcerer has woken up! (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "How did you end up at this incarnation?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Well, it'd been a while since i'd played, and after I quit my 2nd job  known as Everquest". Corwin the sorcerer says "I needed something else to play when I felt like screwing around on  computer". Corwin the sorcerer says "Anyways, I went to the other place, where I'd played some in past, and it  was a ghost town, rarely ever anyone on". Corwin the sorcerer says "This place seemed busier, even though most players are British and I usually  play during American primetime". In the distance, you hear the >CRACK< of a cannon going off. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "So I started playing here instead, if I wanted to play without ever  seeing other players i could play Zork or something!". (Karya the melancholy witch) smiles. Corwin the sorcerer asks "is this what they call pillow talk?". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "How do you find playing amongst mainly British players?". Corwin the sorcerer says "It's probably not all that different, though I've found on muds or internet  games with mostly American teenagers, it can be really annoying". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "How so?". ----*qw (Karya the melancholy witch) Aaron the sorcerer Corwin the sorcerer Dwarfhater the swordswoman Sonic the speedy necromancer Pipns the guest Lauraguest the guest Corwin the sorcerer says "oh, tend to have no respect for anyone else, take delight in ruining other  player's game, etc.". Corwin the sorcerer says "Although i guess there was a lot of that type on Wireplay?<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "Tends to be a teenager thing in general probably!". Corwin the sorcerer says "And don't mean pking, i mean people that just like disrupting other people's  games for the heck of it, usually by doing something cheap. Or being so annoying in shout/chat  whatever that you have to put them on ignore". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Do you notice any other differences between this MUD and a mainly  American one, community-wise?". Corwin the sorcerer says "one big difference I've noticed, there seems to be a lot more meets, so  people probably know each other IRL overall better". Corwin the sorcerer says "Most American muds I've played, the players are all spread out over 3000+  miles, makes it harder to get a lot of people together". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "In terms of the players themselves, don't really notice much of a difference". Corwin the sorcerer says "I've seen all the stereotypical types on here that I've seen before". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Which sterotypes are those?". Corwin the sorcerer says "The attention whores, the serious mudder that doesn't talk much, people that  whine all the time, etc.". Corwin the sorcerer says "Although I think it tends to be more quiet on average, I think Americans are  louder overall.<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin the sorcerer says "It seems often when there's a lot of people on during the bash, I'm usually  the only one shouting stuff that doesn't have to do with the bash, etc.". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "What were your first and lasting impressions upon playing this MUD?". Corwin the sorcerer says "First? Heh, didn't seem much different than other muds I'd played first few  days on here. Totally changed after I wrote a message on the BB challenging killers to kill me though". Corwin the sorcerer says "previously I'd never really taken much heat at all, even with high warlock  or mage". Corwin the sorcerer says "But after writing that I was getting attacked nearly every reset at  sorc/necro, etc.". Corwin the sorcerer says "Lasting impressions? Hmm, I think this is a good version to improve your  game on, there are some very skilled players to compete with". For your information: there are 150 mobiles still alive. Corwin the sorcerer says "Think I've improved more in the 4 months or whatever I've been on here than  in the years previous of playing off and on occasionally other places". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "What prompted you to post that BB message?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Why did I write the message? I've always been a fan of PVPing, and I tend to  like trying to beat people that are better than me, rather than killing people that aren't a match". Corwin the sorcerer says "Figured I could achieve that, plus it is fun to rile people up who take  themselves too seriously.<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "Plus I guess I'm the attention whore type I mentioned earlier!". (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin the sorcerer says "I wanna be the person wizzes are gonna snoop when I'm playing, etc. was like  that as a mortal on BL too". Hedge the guest has just arrived. Hedge the guest has just left. Hedge the guest has just arrived. Hedge the guest has just left. Corwin the sorcerer says "And tried to do interesting stuff while killing people, etc.". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "you LIKE being snooped??". Corwin the sorcerer says "So that I wouldn't just be another run of the mill player". Hedge the guest has just arrived. Hedge the guest blinks. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "Yeah, let me put on a show!". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Hi Hedge". Hedge the guest says "cool". Hedge the guest exclaims "a witch!". (Karya the melancholy witch) smiles. Corwin the sorcerer says "Hedge says, 'Please drop me in the bathroom'". Hedge the guest smiles. Hedge the guest says "or hog". Hedge the guest has just left. Corwin the sorcerer says "Although I guess when you know you're being snooped, I'm more prone to do  something stupid that'll get me killed". Corwin the sorcerer asks "Must amuse the watchers you know?". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "No regrets then? You're handling all the constant attacking?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Regrets about posting the BB message? Nope, none, I don't think I get much  heat over it anymore". Corwin the sorcerer says "Probably just get the normal attacks from being high level, when I am". Corwin the sorcerer says "Do not get attacked much at sorc or necro anymore". Corwin the sorcerer says "I have toned it down a bit, though I still like sneaking in jabs  occasionally, or affecting an arrogant attitude". Corwin the sorcerer says "Especially when I know I'm being snooped, wizzes love arrogant mortals:)". Corwin the sorcerer says "Well to torment them at any rate". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "So it's all part of a persona?". In the distance, you hear a loud "MOO". Corwin the sorcerer says "Yes, pretty much, although I have found it more fun to be a wisecracking,  arrogant mortal". Corwin the sorcerer says "For most of my mudding career I was more the serious, taciturn, hardcore  type of mudder". In the distance, you hear the terrible RHOAAAUUUAURRRRGGGGGGHGHHHGHHHH of a dragon dying. Corwin the sorcerer says "not much use for cutting it up with other players, etc.". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "What do you make of the wizzes here?". ----*ql You are lost in a misty graveyard. The tomb of Suzy the witch stands before you, engraved with the words: "Immortality Rules OK".  Corwin the sorcerer is here carrying a firestone4. You hear a rushing sound in the distance, as if a huge torrent of water has just started to flood somewhere. Corwin the sorcerer says "You guys are pretty soft! More of a hands off approach than most muds I've  played, but I tend to like that". Corwin the sorcerer says "Cuz I likely would be harrassed a lot on like BL if I made little jabs at  wizzes and such". Corwin the sorcerer says "And the people that have made a career of complaining, they'd be getting  it most of the time they were on.<g>". Corwin the sorcerer says "Probably more sociable too, most other muds, was hardly any immortals that  spent much time in the tea room or gathering spot on other types of muds". Corwin the sorcerer says "They would be invis 99% of the time except when a problem was occurring,  etc.". Corwin the sorcerer says "You do need more wizzes though! Seems to be only like maybe 4 or 5 active  ones, unless there's some that are invis all the time". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Are you offering?". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Isn't it about time you made wiz on MUD2?". Corwin the sorcerer grins. Corwin the sorcerer says "maybe I will when I'm good enough". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Why don't you think you're good enough?". Corwin the sorcerer says "I need to be satisfied that I've done a good job as a mortal, need to get  the most out of mortal life, becaus there's no going back to it". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "a very good philosophy". Corwin the sorcerer says "Well, technically there is, but it's not the same". Corwin the sorcerer says "I'm not good enough because I can't beat the killers who wish to stop me a  majority of the time.<g>". Corwin the sorcerer says "just killing them every once in a while and dying to them the rest won't  let me wiz". (Sonic the dragon-slaying, speedy warlock) screams. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "stop you, or "testing" you?". Corwin the sorcerer says "how would i know that?". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "I'm not a mindreader!". (Karya the melancholy witch) smiles. Corwin the sorcerer says "judging by the number of wizzes on here over 5 or 6 years I'd probably guess  stop though". (Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "That's a rather pessimistic point of view!". Corwin the sorcerer grins. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "I can't believe that there's been no one else capable of wizzing during  that time!". Corwin the sorcerer says "So once I can win a majority of my fights against those who would stop me,  maybe I'd consider myself as being able to wiz". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "If/when you make wiz, is there anything you'd like to change about  the game?". ----*qw (Karya the melancholy witch) Dwarfhater the swordswoman (Aaron the sorcerer) Corwin the sorcerer Sonic the dragon-slaying, speedy warlock Pipns the guest Lauraguest the guest In the distance, you hear a loud ~D~O~N~G~. Corwin the sorcerer says "Change about the game? Hrm, there's nothing that really bothers me a lot,  some minor nuisances, but part of the game". Corwin the sorcerer says "Have some ideas for events I'd like to do sometime though". Corwin the sorcerer says "I mean, I'd like to see more players too, but it's hard these days". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. In the distance, you hear a wolf baying AAAOOOOOOHHHH. Corwin the sorcerer asks "Oh yah, change about the game, can we get rid of colds?". Corwin the sorcerer grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. Corwin the sorcerer says "At least it's been changed from before when it could last like half a reset". Corwin the sorcerer fades from view. (Corwin the sorcerer) says "But let's get ride of them altogether!". ----*reset Time-stamp: 23:24:23 on 30-MAY-2003. This is reset 11057, using slot 0. An auto-reset will be initiated in approximately 48 minutes. (Corwin the sorcerer) asks "hmm, after i make wiz, I wanna see more witches too, how is someone  supposed to have a witch harem when there's only one witch?". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. (Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "the roles are reversed around here!". (Corwin the sorcerer) says "Ah, you have a wizard harem or whatever it's called?<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. Corwin the sorcerer has suddenly become visible! Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "oops!". (Karya the melancholy witch) wonders. Corwin the sorcerer says "was trying to detect, wouldn't want anyone to get a scoop on this red hot  interview". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "if you were interviewing a witch, what would you ask her?". Corwin the sorcerer says "boxers or briefs". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. A horrifying zombie (zombie9) stands in your way!  You hear sounds of combat, as Corwin the sorcerer attacks the zombie9. You hear a dull thud, as Corwin the sorcerer hits the zombie9. You hear a swishing sound, as the zombie9 misses Corwin the sorcerer. You hear sinews tearing, as Corwin the sorcerer hits the zombie9.

You hear a parried blow, as Corwin the sorcerer misses the zombie9. You hear a swish, as the zombie9 misses Corwin the sorcerer. Corwin the sorcerer says "put me on the spot like that! Would depend on who it was I suppose". You hear a slicing sound, as Corwin the sorcerer hits the zombie9. You hear a shudder, as the zombie9 misses Corwin the sorcerer. You hear a grinding noise, as Corwin the sorcerer hits the zombie9. You hear a crack, as the zombie9 hits Corwin the sorcerer. You hear a slicing sound, as Corwin the sorcerer hits the zombie9. The zombie9 has expired. Corwin the sorcerer says "probably hey baby, what's your sign, or some variation thereof". (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin guesses Karya is scorpio. Corwin the sorcerer says "Hmm, might ask them if they had it any easier to make wiz being a female". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "What do you think the answer to that is?". Corwin the sorcerer says "I have seen it before, not all witches of course.<g>". Corwin the sorcerer says "But have seen really flirty ones have it waaaay easier, cuz some wizards are a sucker for htat stuff". Corwin the sorcerer says "In regards to you? Doubt it". Corwin the sorcerer says "Since there's not a lot of witches on here, I doubt anyone gets a 'free  ride'". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer asks "Why, you don't feel you had it easier do you?". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "No, personally I feel I and other witches on here possibly had it  slightly harder. We had more to prove being female in a mainly male dominated game". Corwin the sorcerer says "of course, there's always bastages like me that'll give you a harder  beating if you try to flirt with my killers though.<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "That kind of simpering, flirting to try to make killers like you or  whatever disgusts me!". For your information: there are 125 mobiles still alive. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Whether you like it or not do you think it's a valid tactic  (flirting)?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Sure, I'm not really an advocate of using cheap tactics to get ahead, but  some say do whatever you gotta do to make wiz, short of cheating". Corwin the sorcerer says "and flirting isn't cheating". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "But would you respect the witch in question?". Corwin wonders if Marmite flirted his way to wiz. (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin the sorcerer says "As a player? Not really". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Crowley the warlock has just arrived. Crowley the warlock has just left. Corwin the sorcerer says "Doesn't really matter after people make wiz though". Crowley the warlock has just arrived. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "I do have to say that the biggest flirt I've ever known in this  game was a bloke pretending to be female (for years) to try to get to witch". Crowley the warlock waves. Crowley the warlock gives you a great big kiss! Crowley the warlock has just left. (Karya the melancholy witch) blinks. Corwin the sorcerer says "Being a wiz on BL and having seen many of all types wiz, there was people  that turned out to be good wizzes that took shortcuts or used other cheap tactics". Corwin the sorcerer says "While there was a lot of poor wizzes who fought a lot as a mortal". Corwin the sorcerer says "So what you did as mortal, is really irrelevant to me after you make wiz". Corwin the sorcerer says "about the guy pretending to be a female, yeah I've noticed that too". Corwin the sorcerer says "Because there's a stereotype around that females have it easier on muds,  as they can get free rides from guys who flirt with them, some guys will play female and overflirt  to try to get an advantage.<g>". Corwin the sorcerer says "make that rather, flirty females, not females in general". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "females that don't flirt with anyone have never had any special advantage  I've ever seen". (Crowley the warlock) shouts "flooding mine!". You hear a rushing sound in the distance, as if a huge torrent of water has just started to flood somewhere. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Have you ever played as a female?". ----*ql You are lost in a misty graveyard. Smouldering before you is the tombstone of Azzuri the wizard, split in two by a thunderous bolt of  lightning; barely readable are the words: "It's not a race".  Corwin the sorcerer is here carrying a firestone4. Corwin the sorcerer says "yes, I ran up a mage in a week once.<g>". Corwin the sorcerer says "Was even flirty and sent in a picture of a beautiful girl to Hawumph's old  site as a picture of me.<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "oooh were you Morgaine?". Corwin the sorcerer asks "Lol, yes, you remember her?". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "made it to mage without any trouble, but was eventually killed at low mage". Corwin thinks Doppler. Corwin the sorcerer asks "that was a while ago, were you playing on mud2.com years ago?". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "yes, as Melancholy". (Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "I remember Morgaine, and I just knew she couldn't be really  female!". Corwin the sorcerer asks "hehe, why's that?". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "I just get a feeling, it's hard to explain". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "like I really knew that the guy who was pretending to be female  here, the really flirty one, wasn't really female. All the guys here refused to believe she wasn't  female". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "I must say though, I never seen so many enlightening wizards before or  after in my life though!". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "well, that photo was rather ...". (Karya the melancholy witch) coughs. Corwin the sorcerer says "I can usually tell too". Corwin the sorcerer says "the ones that overdo it are usually guys". Corwin the sorcerer says "Only problem is, there are some real females that are over the top flirts  as well". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "I forget what the photo looks like.<g> think I ripped it from a UO guild's  website". (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin the sorcerer says "Likely another male playing as a female and sent that pic in". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "she wasn't wearing much". Corwin the sorcerer laughs. Corwin the sorcerer says "I sincerely hope no adolescent mudders had fun thinking of me". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "that morgain is a hotty, I'd like to do her!". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Moving swiftly on ...". Corwin the sorcerer smiles. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Earlier you mentioned Everquest. How did you end up playing there,  and why did you return to a text adventure game?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Well, originally like my oldest mudding friend Dalamar, who played both BL  and Mud2, start playing Ultima Online when I was still mudding". Corwin the sorcerer says "I ended up going and playing there and joining the guild that him and his  roommate were in". Corwin the sorcerer says "When everquest came out, most of the people in the guild went and started  playing everquest". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "As did I after a couple months, I stuck around UO longer as it was still  newer to me". Corwin the sorcerer says "As for returning to a mud, I have been playing them off and on since  originally playing my first graphical mmorpg UO back in 98 or so". For your information: there are 100 mobiles still alive. (+150 = 542,338). Corwin the sorcerer says "I always found the smaller population and less time consuming gameplay a  refreshing change of pace". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. Corwin the sorcerer says "Everquest is horrible that way if you're in one of the top guilds, expect  30-40 hours of raiding a week". Corwin the sorcerer says "that's just your guild's time, not your time, gonna have to log more hours  than that if you wanna do your own stuff too". Corwin the sorcerer says "just couldn't hack having a 2nd job after a while.<g> so started mudding  again, I can play when I want and don't feel obligated to play". (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Do you ever return to either UO or EQ?". Corwin the sorcerer says "Uo I reopened account for a month a couple months back just to check it out". Corwin the sorcerer says "that was first time since I'd left for everquest, so it had been severeal  years". Corwin the sorcerer says "Everquest I still drop in occasionally to chat with friends, I closed my  account, but someone else wanted to use it so he reopened it". Corwin the sorcerer says "haven't actually played it since before I started playing on here in  december though". ----*qw (Karya the melancholy witch) Strider the warlock Silly the sorcerer Aaron the sorcerer Dwarfhater the heroine (Crowley the warlock) Corwin the sorcerer (Sonic the dragon-slaying, speedy warlock) Jesstarr the guest Corwin the sorcerer has just tried to tickle you!

(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Why did you chose here to be interviewed?". ----*ql You are lost in a misty graveyard. An impressive tombstone stands before you bearing the name of Olazabal the wizard. A neat inscription  reads "Determined till the end".  Corwin the sorcerer is here carrying a firestone4. Corwin the sorcerer says "Feel at home here. Probably because I die so much". (Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "awww!". Corwin the sorcerer asks "staking out my plot?". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "Why did you chose the sixth room specifically?". Corwin the sorcerer says "if i told you i'd have to kill you". (Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles. Corwin the sorcerer says "First number that popped into my head". Corwin the sorcerer asks "too many warlocks on, where's all the killers?". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Hiding". Corwin the sorcerer grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "How does it feel being one of a very few American players here?". Corwin the sorcerer makes some magical gestures. Corwin the sorcerer says "it makes me feel like a king, because I'm privileged to be from the  greatest nation on earth while most of you are not, so you're more like the peasants". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "sorry, had to slip in some arrogant insult in here somewhere!". Corwin the sorcerer says "it doesn't really matter imo". Corwin the sorcerer says "I guess muds transcend nationality.<g>". (Karya the melancholy witch) smiles. Corwin the sorcerer says "I've had British friends, German friends, Australian friends, etc. on muds,  and I didn't even really think of that". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "I.e. by golly, he's an aussie!". (Karya the melancholy witch) nods. (Karya the melancholy witch) asks "I think that's a good note to end the interview on. Do you have  anything you'd like to add, or ask?". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "Are you really a female? While I've seen tons of British guys mudders  females are rather rare!". (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Yes, I really am female". Corwin the sorcerer grins. Corwin the sorcerer asks "umm, prove it?". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. (Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "Muddled Times isn't that kind of website!". Corwin the sorcerer frowns. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "would be good for ratings!". (Karya the melancholy witch) laughs. Corwin the sorcerer says "Muddled Porn, you'd probably have to switch hosts your hits would increase  so much". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. (Karya the melancholy witch) says "Well, the proof'll have to wait until you can make it over to a  mudmeet in England". Corwin the sorcerer gasps.

Auto-reset initiated, you have 120 seconds to finish up. No further warnings will be issued! Corwin the sorcerer says "ooh, reset time". Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "wow, proof positive I can babble on for a whole reset!". (Karya the melancholy witch) grins. Corwin the sorcerer stretches. Corwin starts digging. Corwin the sorcerer exclaims "gonna need that soon!". Something magical is happening.
