See a Matrix MUSH would be kind of cool, just put it in a time before 'The One' comes back, or after Neo entirely.

Not sure how that last one is linked at all but... kay.

@faraday Drama sort of is the whole point though. Of MUSH'ing, we're writing and creating dramatic situations for these people. So in that respect, drama is sort of the goal

Now OOC Drama is another thing entirely, and the bane of many games existence. It's certainly chased me off of games in the past.

There was a Matrix MMO for a little bit, was interesting honestly but the systems required high speed internet and high speed internet wasn't really a very big /thing/ yet.

I think part of the problem is considering them mini games.

If they are part of the system as a whole, and a part of the focus of the game, then they are not mini-games, they are /part of the game/.

A mini-game to me is something inside the game that has absolutely nothing to do with it, for example:

Being able to play checkers while nothing is happening.

The checkers aren't a part of the game, they're just there as something to /do/ when there is nothing else to do.

The Wheel of Time would be an awesome setting for a L&L game honestly.

Take code similar to Arx's, or the same overall purpose, and then set the game somewhere big and melting pot like.

Fortunately there are many turnings of the wheel. Many mirrors.

It is one of those settings that can easily /easily/ get rid of the big names if the game runners wanted to.

@zombiegenesis Ah, I just always felt that Humans got to much, what with same stat bonuses /and/ bonus feat etc.

Feats are stronk.

ETA: But this is whole other discussion, sorry.

@zombiegenesis Why make humans even more powerful? Anyways not important. It's cool that you're working on this. I'd love to see a 5e active game that wasn't ran by psycho.

My characters are always cursed and never actually make it to the marriage part, in any game, ever.

For D&D go with original. That way you don't have to worry about people trying to do stupid stuff like finding big npc's or whatever that are very famous.

That's my 2 cents. D&D games can thrive in an original setting unlike some others.

If I had to pick a published setting though it'd be either Dark Sun, or Planescape... with a secret love for Spelljammer.

Looks like they finally got their shit back together, ugh

Looks like Comcast's main fiber backbone or central node is having some serious issues. I die at the link between Miami and the central hub in Kansas on a traceroute.

Fuck you Comcast.

Did Arx just die for anyone else? Really frustrating.

@Ianna and @Elara, I am sorry, got disconnected and it won't let me reconnect at all.
