Or just drop by and ask one of us on Dreamshadow. We're usually doing
nothing but throw grape jelly at each other anyway....

I have been considering writing a MUD based on the PLANESCAPE AD&D campaign,
but first I need TSR's go-ahead. I have already lain out some ideas of what
I want commands to do, and have a basic idea of where I'm going to start
building Sigil from if I do get the permission. However, I want to put it
up here if possible, though it has been suggested that we might not be able
to support said MUD. I'll be in Winona when and if I do get the go-ahead.

What language do you plan on writing it in?

I don't really know. My friends have suggested (despite its difficulty)
Assembler. I'm look more for a Diku-type. But here's one thing I would do:
Kill a *named* NPC and he/she/it is dead forever. I also want it to ephasize
role-playing rather than gaining levels.

Sounds difficult. I never really figured out the difference between, MUDs,
LPMuds, DikuMuds, etc. I know its something internal. My favorite MUD is
a Diku, it's RealmsMUD at realms.dorsai.org 1501. <Coyote relentlessly plugs
his mud...> I'm Earthprism on it. Say hi to me!

So - I suppose I just telnet to realms.dorsai.org 1501 to do that, right?

Okay.
<bjorn ponders e-mailing or snail-mailing TSR to ask permission to write a
Planescapesque MUD. Even though he already knows the answer - he only knows
TSR's RPGA E-mail address>

I think, however, that I shall wait until I'm feeling better and/or am back
in Winona before asking TSR's permission.

That probably makes sense. When are you going back?

I'll be back on Monday. I probably won't have access to E-mail again until
the following Monday. I'll have other things ready to post in other
conferences before I leave, though.

I found that on RealmsMUD, the MUD I'm continually plugging, the magick system
for mages is remarkably simiar that that of AD&D. They even share most of
the same spells! Also, they're currently adding a hell, with the same planes
as AD&D. So far, they've only got the first one coded. Avernus, I think it
is. They're also coding in other planes which you can access from hell, but
I don't know if they're the same as AD&D or not, because none of them are
coded yet.

Seems like they'll have to be dealing directly with TSR then. Avernus, as
I know it via Planescape, is the first layer of Baator - or, as primes call
it, The Nine Hells. It also seems like someone is running with my idea -
which reminds me - what's the name of the city and/or plane at which you
access the MUD?

I think they are dealing with TSR, because they do plan to do the rest of the
hells, and more on Avernus. Once you're on the MUD, (telnet realms.dorsai.org
1501), directions from soc (south of church) as are follows to get to hell:
4w 3n 2e 6n 3e vortex
There's a sign there where you can read about it.
