If I could staff for anyone and knew wikidot, I would offer. Wikidot is somewhat different in some pretty important ways from mediawiki, from what I gather.

If you need some help with css, and have someone who decides to fill that role with basic knowledge for wikidot requirements, do feel free to poke me in PM at any time (and they're welcome to do the same) if there's anything I can be of help with.

I have a wiki that's not finished, for a game I set aside in favor of a different idea, that does have some useful templates and code on it here: http://sevendevils.info/index.php/Main_Page

Not all the things I wanted to do with it got done before I set it aside, but if there is something there that looks useful to you that you'd like to implement for your game, I'm happy to talk to whoever your wikidot-savvy staffperson is to try to figure out if it can be done for wikidot and ideally can get it done. I just ask that if there are templates/a nice setup/etc. that comes from it, please be willing to 'pass it on' and share the code with others as well. 🙂

Is serenity mush still alive? In other news, I'm amazed this place is still going.

@Jennkryst There's no XP cap anymore. They got rid of that shortly after the time people started hitting it. There's a limit on how much free/auto xp you get. But that's not really the same thing.
@derp What custom stuff? The only thing that might be considered custom is that they allowed/converted some 1st edition merits for use in the game. And do you really want to have PCs v PCs at war? And the number of scenes where people are charging headfirst into a battle with Seers has been like... 3 maybe. It seems like maybe you got caught up into someone's rabble rousing ICly even though things don't really go down like that. And if they do, it is few and far between. The "war" is mostly negotiating, looking for allies, finding objects and info that could help against the Seers, that kind of thing. Straight up fights are rare. So there's a little something for everyone.

A Weird War 2 mush would be awesome!

What's creepier is that she's using MY RL picture as HER Facebook photo.

What the fucking fuck

That's your photo?

You married? Happily? If so, do you have a twin sister who isn't?</icky>

Well, I'm personally a mid-30s male who is happily involved, but hang on, I'm going to need a little time to find the right girl on Chatroulette to take a screenshot of and try to pass her off as my sister.

I know some of you folks have made noise about playing with me at some time or another. I wasn't playing my Hunter (just couldn't get into her/things), so I've made a new char. I'm now approved and on-grid as Sierra. Werewolf.

Other potential hook is the University. She works there as a researcher, due to a background in anthropology and South American cultures. But there's also the, y'know, random 'oh hai' at a bar that always works (I am not a fan of 'all bar RP all the time,' but I understand its value in smooshing characters together who would otherwise struggle to meet).

@Bobotron said in Shadowhunters MUSH:

@Auspice
Kinda sucks for those people, but I get the decision. Plus, TBH, is there even really enough 'here's what werewolves, vampires and warlocks' do in the books? I'm on book 4 and very little has been provided of what they do on the day to day, except when they're shoulders-deep in Shadowhunter business.

Pretty much. You'd have to be willing to go off-book / off-show. In the books/show, the downworlders only really get involved because of Clary anyway (Luke and Simon).

Warlocks are probably the easiest to tie in, since Shadowhunters often hire their services.

I like the Rifts world so I do plan on checking it out once I get a flash of character inspiration. Checked out the wiki and nothing smacked of insanity which is a good start.

@WTFE Well, they did stop putting lead into paint, so...

In all honesty, I hear where you're coming from. You can't entice people to play a text based game without setting the scene and mood for what you're trying to promote. Since there's no pictures, you have to literally paint it with text. I was just posting on behalf of a friend and thought it would be in poor form to change their ad without them knowing. I could've written something for them but didn't feel it was in my place to do so since I was largely idle at the time.

SPEHSS is Space. Spelljammer isn't really sci-fi... more like Treasure Planet, with open top boats and such. Buuut.... yeah. Plus, Mind Flayers are canonically from the distant future. So timey wimey.

Since some people have expressed interest in checking the game out again, I thought I'd share this link here. It's where we try to keep an updated list of 'staff wanteds' because people often ask what the game needs or doesn't need. This is more general, if a player is interested in doing something really specific that we'd like to have for a plot or what-not, then we can talk about that! Just mail or page Asherat or Yeshua and we'll hash out details.

@Lithium Come hop on the game, I work with all types of characters and often impose either a limited karma pool or zero refresh during course of the campaign. I'm pretty easy going too.

@Sunny You know what I want? I want ctrl-f to work in real life, that's what I want.

The number of times I'm looking for something in the house when it's right in front of my eyes and I don't see it is astounding.

It's nice! I'm not sure how people can be totally put off by the year....it's not as if it's a huge adjustment from a number of period pieces. Made a character and had my first scene.

Holy crap. After much insanity, I'm going to work on getting TDM back in-line and rolling forward. Apparently, the only time I actually get to MU* is when I am at work, and so I'll be able to work on rebuilding TDM's momentum on fri/sat of every week. i picked up a part time post and I babyait an empty, smallish building by my lonesome. It's kind of peaceful.

Anyway! If you played, or were interested, or had stories and ideas, let me know!

The only caveat is that I still don't really know 2.0 mage, at all, and could really use a staffer that does.
