"The Shit" MajorMUD board opening up soon!

Hey guys, I decided to start up my own mud board. I've wanted to for a good while, but I had dial-up, so it was kinda pointless to try. Here's a little info about it. PM me or email aaronpres@yahoo.com if you have any suggestions or requests.



Price: FREE, no validation required

Connection: Cable

WG Ver: 3.30

Mud Ver 1.11o

BBS Address: --not yet determined--

# of accounts: 1, maybe 2...haven't decided yet.



Realm Setup

Areas are all stock.

2x monster experience

50 extra CP's to start the game

Users get sys map

Level stack 10

PVP Allowed, 5 level difference

Level stack: 10

Death HP: -100

Scripting and deathpile raiding is allowed

Other: I was looking at those add-ons for Nightmare Redux. Does anyone have any experience with those? Particularly the spell mods and fixes.



I will be playing, but not using my sysop account. If anyone is interested in being a Mudop, please let me know. I'm getting kinda busy with school and stuff, but I hope to have it up and running by Oct 1 at the latest. I'll post the final stats a week before I plan to start it up. This is my first attempt at running my own mud board(besides messing around with it locally) so if you guys have any suggestions, please let me know.



Peace

A couple updates that I've decided to implement:



1) PVP level limit will be 10 levels

2) I changed the half-orc race. Besides a few differences in starting/max stats, a half-orc was just like a human. Basically worthless. I changed this around a bit to make half-orcs a more lucrative option to play:

+25% EXP

HP bonus of 1

now have Racestealth and can see in the dark.

I tried to change the half-orc to a more traditional orc. They live underground, and in mountains, so they should be able to see well, they are stealthy, and usually pretty vital.

3) Theif class is now Combat 3.

Lunar Dynamics uses the Lair MOD and Spell MOD. As long as you havent edited anything stock it should import ok for you. Otherwise it will overwrite your changes.

This is my first attempt at running a public mud board, so hopefully a few veterans out there will try it out, and tell me what I'm doing right/wrong.

Hmmmm, cable modem keeps resetting itself...very unusual. The board will be down until I can figure out why the modem is going nuts.
