or two are actually concerned with the game and do whatever they can to make
it as fun as possible for all involved.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "From what I've seen.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Being a Wiz can't be
all some people make it out to be.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Give the number of
Wizzes that have quit.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "Being a wiz is whatever you make it ...".

before....  You have to REALLY like the game to go for Wiz.".

quest.".

no life whatsoever and can play at all hours of the day and night.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "People like
Astral....".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Would be good.".

(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "if there was any aspect of the game that
you could change, what would you change?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'd take out the
bloody mazes for starters.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But seriously....".
(Karya the melancholy witch) grins.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'd come down like a
ton of bricks on the abusive people.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But if you're talking
about things I'd like to see done to the Land or the program itself...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Well, I'd like to see
more tasks on the task list.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'd like to see a Wiz
level for PPs.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "as in Mystics?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "there has been an arguement on the forums
about Mystics ...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Why does the level
exist if you can't reach it?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "in that they may have had an easier time
getting to wiz ... so would it cause resentment amongst the wizzes".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I think the level was implimented for a
previous incarnation of the game".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "It should come back.".
The ape11 thanks you.
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "don't you think that would cause a 2 tier
system amongst the wizzes?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Yes.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But not necessarily in
a bad way.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "We need new blood in
Wizdom.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "here's a question....".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "What are the Wizzes
doing about the current downturn in the game?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) thought she was asking the
questions.
(Karya the melancholy witch) grins.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "the people leaving..".
(Karya the melancholy witch) thinks.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "The level of abuse.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Etc..".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "people leaving ... I don't believe there is
a particular increase in people leaving ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "peole are leaving all the time ..".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "True.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "a couple of the more high profile people
left recently ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) exclaims "but they came back within a week!".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But now, people who
would have NEVER considered leaving are claiming that they haven't left.... 
They've been driven away...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I believe that people are far more vocal
about leaving than they used to be ..".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "therefore it SEEMS like more people are
leaving".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But people aren't just
leaving...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "They're beeing scared
off.".
Tanis the wayfarer shouts "wow an eagle is fighting a zombie at spring
wow".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "being.".
Hmmm the sorcerer shouts "wow".
Y the protector shouts "<GASP>".
Tanis the wayfarer shouts "yeah wow".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer makes some magical gestures.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer smiles.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer makes some magical gestures.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I, and most of the wizzes do accept that
there is a problem with the level of abuse ..".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "how to solve that is an entirely different
matter though".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You actually discuss
that.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "oh yes".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "we had a long, long discussion about it
last night as it happens".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "To be honest...  From
down here...  It looks like you lot don't give a damn.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I know ... what you don't know, hear or see
 ...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I understand.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "well, you just can't know about".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "but when we have no immediate solutions
...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "its a tricky one".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I don't see any
solutions either...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Maybe a futuire Wiz
will step in and surprise us all....".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Ushering in a new era
of peace and prosperity.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Or perhaps we'll just
get another PK.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Which is more likely,
eh?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer smiles.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "but ... we don't want things to swing
completely in the opposite direction, a nice balance would b".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "be good".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "oh yes, tasks ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "do you have any ideas for more tasks?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer thinks.
Marmite the swordswoman screams "NO!".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'd like to see any
new asks linked in with new areas of the game.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I wouldn't like them
to seem 'forced'.".
OK, (Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I like the set
tasks...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "In the same way, I
like the quests.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Y'know...  You have a
mission...  Go and do it.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You're given a target
to aim for.".
In the distance, you hear a loud ~R~I~N~G~.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "That said, I rarely
touch the tasks.... Laziness.".
Tanis the voyager shouts "carousel !!!!! where are you".
Hmmm the sorcerer shouts "shes on my knee :)".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "would you like to see more new areas in the
game?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Definitely.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "It's exciting when the
land grows...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "People have new things
to talk about.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "New areas to explore.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "what kind of things would you like to see
in the way of new areas?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I've noticed that
quests have been running a lot more lately.....  Any reason?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "new areas...?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "A castle in the sky
and an underwater kingdom...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer chuckles.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Just kidding.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I'm not really sure, but personally I think
its a combination of the success of Agrazag's quest ..".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Elemental quest is
fantastic.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "has made other wizzes more enthusiastic ..
and players enjoying his quest and Umbrarg's ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "makes players more keen to try out others".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "seeing Agrazag complete his quest certainly fired
me up again to do my own.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I don't know what I'd
like to see added....  I'll leave that up to you people...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Did the Wizzes discuss
the Giants module before it was added?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "no ... that was purely Richard's area, he
did tell us about it before it was added though".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "richard and umbrarg are the people who add
to the game now".
Seamus the mage cheers.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Are new areas ever
designed by commitee?".(Karya the melancholy witch) shakes her head.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "us wizzes, as can mortals, can suggest
things for the game ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "sometimes those ideas will be taken aboard,
sometimes they wont".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I've had this creeping
suspicion for a while that with Umbrarg as an arch,  we might see his quest a
lot more.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "And we have.".
In the distance, you hear the thunderous roar of a finger of death
spell!
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "why do you think that is?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I don't know.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I had thought that
maybe we might see elements of that quest added as permanent fixtures to the
land.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "would you like to see that happen?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Depends which quest it
is....".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Trouble is...  Since
most quests have a set objective, they're no good as additions.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You couldn't have a
permanent Elemental crossroads or whatever in the game.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "But you could have
Umbrargs village.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I've never got deep
enough into Umbrargs Island.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "It's a little too big
for my likeing.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Liking.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "do you think it fits in nicely with the
rest of the game?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "No.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "it feels like a whole
new world.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Maybe it should.".
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "Clash is dead! 1 kill to
Ccccc".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer smiles.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Do you have any ideas
for a quest?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I've read you haven't
made one yet.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "I have half finished ideas ... lots of them
...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Mrsoft the protector shouts "did clash fetch then?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Like....?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer grins.
(Karya the melancholy witch) chuckles.
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "He died. End of story Im
afraid".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "well, something snowy, something based in
and around a garden ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "and I did play around with water ideas for
a bit".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "Mrcreasote is dead to a
Goblin!".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "actually, to be honest, I'm still learning
the actual basics to making a quest".
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "Wizslayer kills Y! 1 kill to
Wizslayer!".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Mrsoft the protector cheers.
Tanis the voyager cheers.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Fruitbat really has to
shut up.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer smirks.
(Karya the melancholy witch) grins.
Mrsoft the protector cheers "Wizslayer for arch!".
Suddenly, you hear a blow, as Jericho the pop culture monkey
necromancer gives the spider a painful kick!

Spider's lair.
An enormous spider stands before you! 
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer is here carrying a ring5 and a
firestone5.
(Karya the melancholy witch) wonders, why the spider hasn't moved.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer glances around.
Suddenly, you hear a blow, as Jericho the pop culture monkey
necromancer gives the spider a painful punch!
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer shrugs.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Gameplay...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'm afraid that they
might pull the plug on WP Mud2.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "why would they do that?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "They pulled more
popular games from WP3.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "really? like what?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "And hardly anyone
connects to Mud using their client.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Meaning you miss out
on all their adverts.".
Auto-reset initiated, you have 120 seconds to finish up. No further
warnings will be issued!
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Since Gameplay is
essentially a shop.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "They have no reason
for running a game that doesn't help them sell things.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "its amazing how they are happy to let us
connect to mud via any client".
In the distance, you hear the whistling feedback of a failed finger of
death spell...
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Jeggburt the sorcerised spellbinder shouts "oi!!!!".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Surprises me too.".
Jeggburt the sorcerised spellbinder shouts "no fair".
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "Coolio is dead! No kill for
poor old Jeggburt though".
Mrsoft the protector shouts "lets see him for your mage muhuhahahaha".
Jeggburt the sorcerised spellbinder shouts "that should count".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "ok to carry on next reset?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer chuckles.
Fruitbat the slaughtering wizard shouts "Ape9 kills Ccccc!".

The spider scuttles away.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "So....".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer glances around.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "apart from the instability .... how do you
feel about a large co-operation such as Gamelay ..".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "bascially running this mud?".

An enormous spider stands before you! 
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer is here carrying a firestone5 and a
ring5.
The spider scuttles away.
An enormous spider stands before you! 
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Lots of reasons... 
Simple things, like the fact that BT's site loaded faster.  And bigger things,
like that I felt that the game was safer with BT.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I don't like the idea
of a SHOP running the game.".
The spider scuttles away.
Hmmm the sorcerer shouts "feels good to nick something back off the
thief LOL".
An enormous spider stands before you! 
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Since they provide the
Mud2 servers  and the like....  If they ever need to start saving money...  A
good idea is to just turn off the 'funny word game thingy'.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "have you heard about another mud type game
that gameplay are developing?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "I believe its been mentioned on the forums
- Hot Hotel?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "It's not actually Hot
Hotel is it?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I thought it was going
to be more of a Vzones type thing.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "vzones?".
The spider drops dead, poisoned...
The spider has just passed on.
(Karya the melancholy witch) blinks.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer smiles.

Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer shrugs.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "anyway, I'm not sure what it will be
actually called, but it sounds like it is or will be ..".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "a hot hotel kind of game, wondered what you
thought of that".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Hot Hotel was that
smutty game that Dr. B put together as a Demo, right?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Then I think it's
terrific.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "why?".
A quick reconnection later ...
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "sorry bout that, dropped".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Back then...?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "S'okay.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You asked why was Hot
Hotel a good idea?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Porn and Mud at the
same time?  Can't possibly go wrong.".
For your information: Www the mage is worth 25,528 points if killed.
(Karya the melancholy witch) grins.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Except...  How do you
attract women?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "More men play Mud than
women.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) asks "you don't think women like porn too?".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "A game like HH relies
upon an equal balance of both sexes.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "No.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I know that women like
porn.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Some women.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "My girlfriend likes
porn, but I've met women who think otherwise.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I think the problem is
this:".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Women don't like Mud
as much as men.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You need a decent
balance.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "You won't get it.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) nods.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "This game doesn't have
an equal balance.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "It's not like Quake or
something...  You expect more men there.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "well, a fair number of people don't really
care what sex the actual player is ... only the persona".
In the distance, you hear the rumble of thunder.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "True...  But HH
actively encourages Cybersex....  I can tell you for damn sure that people
will care about the sex of the player there.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) smiles.
For your information: Www the mage is worth 23,907 points if killed.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "...'You suck Kim's
nipples'...  'Kim say's:  I'm really a man.'".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "That's not something a
would-be pervert want's to hear.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) grins.
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I'm not sure that HH
is such a good idea for a game...  But I'd definitely take a look.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "One major flaw
though:".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "How do you keep the
kids away?".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "a tricky one ... very difficult".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Not just young
kids....  Hell, half of them know more than enough about sex...  I mean the
osort of people who go on those things jsut to take the piss.".
Menion wails.
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "... and the kind of people who try and take
advantage of kids".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Damned straight.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I think kids are more
than capable of making up their own minds about the game...  That's why it'll
be besieged by children.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Children and
thirteen-year-old teenage wankers who're going on there to try and 'pick up
chicks'....".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "yes, but some people use the internet to
lure vulnerable people into RL meetings ...".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "They'll be the ones
saying 'hi, ne1 wanna cyber???????? type 6969 if you do...!!!!!!!'.".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "children may well use hot hotel to
experiment with their sexuality ... but then there will be the ...".
(Karya the melancholy witch) says "older guys using it as a way to pick up
girls way too young for them".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "I hate that.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Young girls, I'm not
talking underage....  Just young girls, going out with older guys.".

if you don't mind me asking".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Twenty.".

time and I'll tell you different.".
Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "This is the
Internet...  You can be anyone you want to be.".

Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Just thinking about
Britney...  You know the one who goes around screeching the lyrics to Britney
Spears songs?".

Jericho the pop culture monkey necromancer says "Dunbad was fun... 
Whatever happened to him?".

died....  I met him in the keep, helped him out....  Later that reset he was
dead.".
