I never actually got through the app process on HAM because I was told by one staffer that my concept seemed great and they were looking forward to it and then I was told via back-channels that Shakespeare on the other hand had pre-veto’d it so continuing to work on it would be wasted effort.
Nothing about this situation or anyone involved looks great, honestly.
I’m old now and got into this hobby early so I’m probably going to forget a lot of MU*s and PCs here, but I’ll put in which characters and games I remember and / or have logs of hanging around! Would love to hear from people I used to play with. If you hate me for some ages-old grudge, c’est la vie I guess.

Fallen London would be an amazing setting. I’d jump on that immediately.
Chill would be pretty easily transferable to MUSH.
I’m surprised that the D&D/Pathfinder MUSH period was so brief; seemed like a no-brainer for the most part.
I’m shocked I haven’t seen a Helluvaverse MUSH pop up tbh.
@Jumpscare I will note that in-game identity privacy is not really ‘optional’ but is effectively enforced on the Discord server; when I joined I changed my name to my character name and was immediately DM’d by three people to ‘not do that’.
So it’s really hard to talk about anything game-wise on the discord regarding events, really.
Hey all!
Any old Under the Stars players still around?
I was Arthur Yorke, the author / nightmare sufferer. We closed up near the start of the pandemic and I was just wondering if any of the people I remember are still around.

Damn, there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Insert Obi-Wan meme here.
K’nan, Veyath’s.
@labsunlimited Hah. We probably knew each other, then.
There was so much extremely shitty behavior back then, especially at that game…
@catzilla Whom do I have to sacrifice for it?
I’m fine with California!
@InkGolem Well, the IP rights are no longer with Onyx Path; they expired and moved back to the original IP-holder, who I do work for.
@InkGolem I could technically run an official one, honestly, if I felt like it.
But I don’t have the coding expertise or the time.

@MisterBoring I can at least report that the worst of the DR LARP crowd has been purged with fire.

Logging on through dial-up internet. I remember the thrill of getting Searched, and Impressing. There were so many people on, back in those days, hundreds and hundreds instead of these days’ much smaller crowds.
