Flour and MUD

November 22nd 2005

My dad is so adorable.

He loves to bake up a storm during the holidays. Cookies, pies, cakes. He spent the majority of yesterday baking me pumpkin pies (yes plural). 3 to be exact. What the hell I’m going to do with 3 pies, I don’t know. But every year he also makes a disaster out of the kitchen, which I discovered yesterday as I was sliding on flour on the wooden floor. Apparently he had dropped eggs (which were cleaned up), there was flower and sugar all over the counter, a few things that had fallen off the table onto the floor, burnt drippings on the bottom of the oven. I can’t help but laugh. I don’t even bother going into the kitchen if I can help it during the holidays because he’s always making some sort of mess in there. But he enjoys it.

Christmas/Holiday Cards!: If you want one, email me with your address. Also let me know if you’d like mine to send one in return.

Had a decent weekend. Got a lot accomplished, which is a change, since my weekends have been somewhat lazy. Submitted the Groves quarterly report, held an online witan meeting (anyone know of a good online chat script?), started preparing stuff for elections next month, and have almost finished my Centaur village on my MUD.

I’m really proud of my staff on my MUD. They really do dedicate themselves to it, and work really hard. I don’t think I could ask for a better bunch of people to share building this game with. And when it opens into beta next year, I wouldn’t want a better bunch of people to run it with me. I really think this RPG could go somewhere.

28.8 or Why MUDs own all RPG’s

I have a player on my MUD that still uses a 28.8 modem. Not only did I not think those things even existed anymore, but it’s an indestructible flashback to
“Yo check this out guy, this is insanely great, it has a 28.8 bps modem.” “Yeah? Display?” “Active Matrix Man, a million psychadelic colors.” […]
