@meg I can't wait to get #funnygang trending in game.

Do hashtags trend on Instagram? God, I'm old.

Much of AresMUSH uses markdown. Just like MSB does. Hashtags are used for making things

really big.

@sab just don’t put he hash as the very first letter of a line and it shouldn’t be interpreted as a heading.

Oh wait, sorry, I thought this was a bit. I'm not actually sure why I'm being told this, though I appreciate knowing it now anyway!

@sab oh I thought we were just talking about using hashtags in game posts or whatnot. Never mind.

I'm playing a fresh-out-of-medical-school doctor who's just moved back from California; she's been having these dreams that she chalked up to homesickness...

So if anyone is the right age and wants to have been early-childhood friends (from before Summer's dad moved them away when she was eight), I'm open to connections!

I'm planning on a local that moved away to New York for Art School (where she met @Sab ), and then moved home again. I'm down for the all the connections! She'd probably be 24ish?

Wow....where's the crotchety old Doomsday Prepper with the 300-acre mountain "compound" who made his fortune in his youth exterminatin' all the damn vampires (and demons and everything-else-that-go-bump-in-night)?

[Roz]

@friarzen be the crotchety doomsday prepper you want to see in the world

@roz Get Off My Lawn!

[Testament]

Gonna own a bar. That is all.

My crotchety fellow will have been born in the town a long time ago, but had been a little over ambitious and decided to whisk away to city-life for better opportunities. Unfortunately he'd struck out one too many times and after two decades away from the home turf, there's nowhere else he's got to go. He doesn't know many of these younger faces around and he's pretty behind on the times.

Will probably enjoy digging in a musty used bookstore, give side-eye to the youths on instagram and take his coffee black. Also still uses a flip phone.

He's gonna be so happy about how modern and hipster Garrett has made the cafe. ENJOY THE TABLET CASH REGISTER AND LATTE ART.

[Testament]

@roz I don't know why that makes me irrationally angry. Not the art, the tablet cash register.

I get it. I get it. But I really don't get it.

This also makes me sad. Here's a firehose of construction:

This game's Wiki is all over the place. It's nice, brief, clever, legible, beautiful, but not consistent. The Character Creation page links to Schools and therefore specific spells, but not to the aforementioned Magic page.

I'm now starting to wonder why the Character Generation page doesn't link straight to this Magic System page, which has the same information and a lot more.

In fact, as magic characters are the focus of the game, I'm wondering why this page isn't more featured.

This isn't a nit-pick, this is outright confusion that can probably be fixed by dumping the 'Schools' page and linking the Magic System page in its place.

@testament I legitimately love tablet POS systems, especially when they just swing it around on the stand and you can SIGN right on the TABLET and tip if you want. It makes me happy.
