This game already has me hooked, and I haven't even played it yet. The rich thought process that went into designing this unique and elaborate world is unbelievable! I've been planning out my character today, and I hope to submit my application tomorrow. I want to wait so I can graze overnight on my character's information. I've read that lengths are measured by inches and cords, and weight is measured by stones, five-stones, ten-stones, and hundred-stones. Do the height and weight formats in the character registration have to match up with those measurments, or our measurments? I hope I will be accepted into this community and enjoy the experience that you all do.

Welcome!   You think you're hooked now...just wait until you play.

When you enter your character application, you'll be asked for your character's height in inches and weight in ten-stones.
So if you're tired of the same old story

Heh.  Wait until you get into the game.  I just started playing again after trying it a while back.  Wow..to say the least.

Thank you. I was a bit confused on this topic.

I can't wait until I play.

Don't put your current character into your posts or signature.  Keep all IC-sensative information out of the GDB.  We like to stay secretive and mysterious.

Welcome to the addiction.

I'm sorry! I didn't know that. Is it posted somewhere? I haven't read it. It's out now, sorry about that, good thing I didn't have a character in it yet.

Welcome. Make sure you play in Allanak, it'll toughen you up.

Yeah, and go ahead and submit your character now.  Don't spend too long creating him until you're sure he won't die.

Say goodbye to your friends and family.  And sunlight.  You'll rarely see them ever again.

Oh, and find a place online that will deliver groceries to your door, and preferably at night so that there's no natural light to kill your eyes when they show up.

I want to spend time going over a good character first.

Good idea. :wink:

I had a friend that might have been interested, but she never picked up on it.

Also, I have found where it says not to post characters on the boards or in your signature. At the very top where it says, "This board is for general discussion of Armageddon MUD. No flames, no IC-sensitive information." I'm sorry once again for not paying attention to it.

Hi there! In my limited experience, staying alive is only as difficult as you make it on yourself. Common sense will take you a long way! Unfortunately, going the safe route is rarely as fun as taking risks  :twisted: So, spend all the time you want on a good character and don't worry that they'll die as soon as they enter the game!

Oh, I also recommend having a folder for backup characters. If I'm bored and there's a lull then I'll work on them. It's always fun :D

One more thing! This website is REALLY useful. Keep it open behind your mud client for quick reference while playing. I still use it.
..and the puppet explodes.

I do have a character folder that I'm currently developing a character in. Thank you for the link.

Welcome to the best game in the world! if I were you I'd pick Allanak as a starting city and join the Byn.  Don't go out into the desert much unless your a ranger. And well have fun. Which I am sure you will do. I can't give you much advice though, because I supose I'm still quite new although I play this game 10 hrs + a day.

Eww, color me giddy! Another seemingly innocent pedestrian ripe to be converted (or subverted) into a drug-addled Crackaggedon fiend.

In all seriousness, though: Welcome to the game. Stock up on caffeine products - coffee, soda, pills, whatever - personally I find it most conducive to my nocturnal roleplaying habits if I hook an IV into my arm to feed an intravenous supply into my bloodstream. You'll thank me later. Or you'll shift in and out of a catatonic state interspersed with a serious case of the shakes. Either way.

Ahem. Yeah.
