New GoT MUSH?

Not sure how well sword and sorcery does as a large gaming group setting and action type.
At this point I think I want fantasy enough in a good MU* that I'd actually staff for. It's not something I can say about anything else I can think of.

@Misadventure personally I would run the typical S&S adventures of the week within a larger frame of kingdom vs. kingdom conflict.
I used to play PBM games (yes I'm old), and there was one called Hyborian War. So something like that.
...wow, does this still exist? http://www.reality.com/hwconten.htm

If you've got experience with the genre, and some love for it, you've got enough to make it work. Make it happen!
-
Nothin' to do with me.
I'd suggest that anybody doing a GoT MUSH should be prepared to display the proper degree if indifference to Lindaaa.
BTW, besides Steel and Stone and that one other that was GoT-ish but not GoT, what other GoT MUs have there been? What became of 'em?

How about a MU* set in Joe Abercrombie's world? snip
I'd play the hell out something like that.
I'd also play the hell out of Abercrombie's setting. Or, really, any low-magic fantasy setting that isn't Game of Thrones...
-
It was either Game of Kings or Game of Bones. I think it was the latter that was the 'original setting but still kind of GoTish' but I didn't play on them so can't remember.

@Apu
Naw, the former. Game of Bones is my one, and is ASoIaF. As far as I know, those are the only ones to have happened.

There was totally another around before I hit Steel & Stone, but I can't for the life of me remember.

Heh. Thanks. Could never find a picture of Apu I liked. Will change it.

What I would like to see is a MUSH based on the same world as Guy Gavriel Kay's Lions of Al-Rasan, A Song for Arbonne, etc. It's close enough to some themes in our world's medieval era to make it easy to play, extremely low-magic and very engaging, if you ever read either of those books.

Holy hell yes, this!

Lions was great (and Tigana of course), I didn't know Arbonne was in the same vein, I'll have to check that out.
-
A game set in the Sarantine court would be pretty cool.

I was so emo when I finished that book.
The duel between ... well, let's not spoil things, certain characters, was handled in basically the best way I've ever read a fight going in a novel.I was all grrr and :(.
