| No One Takes You Seriously When You Ain't Got No Teef!, posted on Wed May 20 20:52:42 2026 | | Posted by: Evensong | | Category: General | The Igors have had a get together and discussed all manner of work related things before getting down to some serious partying with games such as "Stitch the second tail on the Donkey", "Operation" (with live patients) and, a new favouritye this year, "Crocodile Dentist".
As a result they have now agreed to add dentistry to the services they provide.
Pricing was also discussed and a certain member of the clan was told off for devalueing the service. He has agreed to be more of a team player in f...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| You Don't Have To Be A Fool To Be A Fool., posted on Wed Apr 1 06:48:08 2026 | | Posted by: Evensong | | Category: General | On this special day the creators have granted to the Guild of Fools and Joculators these wishes three:
1. Slap applicators will now be a bit more sparing in the applications and thus last somewhat longer.
2. An asbestos mask has been added to the T-Shop to protect Fools from the rigours of firebreathing.
3. Clownageddon now has a baby brother (or sister if you prefer to think in such terms) called Filly Folly.
Finally, to prevent the Fools being accused of being OP, a flaming red nose has been a...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Bodhisattva, posted on Tue Sep 30 12:17:07 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | Priests' passage rooms now have (spoiler-free) helpfiles.
A few of the messages in the sailing mission have been changed to make it clear that adjustments to the XP reward are affected by the speed at which you do the mission rather than by how you treat the engine. The only change is in the messages - everything else is as it was before. |
| Maisey Goes To Therapy, posted on Mon Sep 29 08:44:34 2025 | | Posted by: Evensong | | Category: General | It has been discovered that Maisey Bent has a rather more squeamish nature than she let on and was viewing any act of murder near her as a personal attack against her.
She has now undergone therapy and has been made to accept that this world can be rather harsh at times and she just needs to Deal With It. She has made good progress and has promised the guild to differentiate between attacks on her and attacks on those around her.
She has also agreed to drop any old grievances as she was unable t...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Youthful Indiscretion, posted on Tue Aug 19 09:56:59 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | | A witch named Brienna has taken up residence on Wall Street West in Sto Lat. Rumour has it that she can help you reverse any unfortunate tattoo-related decisions you might have made while inebriated (or even while stone-cold sober). |
| Short And Sweet Fix Notifications, posted on Thu Jul 24 22:49:45 2025 | | Posted by: Evensong | | Category: General | I have now cleaned up the mess I left last time I played with the code. I've probably left a whole new mess but progress is progress :)
First of all, the recent change to allow people who had missed the chance at the addiction achievements meant that no-one could gain the achievements. This has now been sorted.
Secondly, Fools who had Faces that required an accessory worn on the face/head didn't get their benefit from wearing their face because they were wearing something on their face/head. ...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Helpless In The Face Of Your Beauty, posted on Thu Jul 17 16:34:36 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | Over the years, the effects of MMM on NPCs and on players had drifted apart unintentionally. This has now been fixed, and so, for example, NPCs can no longer backstab while under the influence of MMM.
Two new souls have been added: "coo" and "dust". Relatedly, the syntax for using the feather duster has been changed to "dust X with duster" (rather than just "dust X").
The guards who spawn in the offices of the Coffee Nostra officials (consiglieres, accountants, etc) were not always joining in...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Seeking Screenreader Users To Apply As Playtesters, posted on Mon Jun 30 17:19:53 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | Do you use a screenreader to play the MUD? Would you ever consider applying as a playtester?
If your answer to both of these questions is yes, then the PT domain admin would love to hear from you! We don't currently have any PTs who use screenreaders, and we'd like to fill this gap in our team.
You can talk to Kake, Mauve or Pokey for more information, or check out the resources under the Playtesting menu on the MUD website, or just take the plunge and use the "apply" command.
Please note th...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
| Added Value, posted on Wed Jun 25 12:02:00 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | Vessels (i.e. liquid-containers such as cups, buckets, bottles, etc) can now be manually filled when you're in a water room using the syntax "fill <object> from here".
Honeycombs can now be referred to as "full honeycomb" or "empty honeycomb" as appropriate.
Barbarian-themed saddlebags are now sold at the summer and winter Hublandish Barbarian camps.
Flowers braided into your hair are no longer visible when you're wearing something that covers your hair. |
| A Fine Disregard For Awkward Facts, Part 2, posted on Fri Jun 13 11:30:10 2025 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: General | As I blogged about last month, we recently identified a long-standing bug that was sometimes letting objects be put inside containers when they shouldn't have fitted due to length and width restrictions.
For the past two weeks, the MUD has been giving a WARNING to anyone who managed (due to this bug) to put an over-large item inside a container it shouldn't fit into. This was done in order to let people check whether they had been unwittingly taking advantage of this bug, and if so, to make any...Read The Rest Of This Entry |
