I'm still on my quest looking around to see if another mud might be able to satisfy my addict like craving while Accursed is down.
I tried Dartmud last night and it has some of the same features as Accursed. I made a nice rounded character and then went out into the world.
I decided to fight a deer.
On Accursed, fighting a deer when you are just starting out can mean certain death. I wanted to see if the same was true at Dartmud.
In true life or death fighting, I received a phone call, which immediately knocks me off the internet. I talk to a friend for about 10-15 mintues and then I drove out to drop some bills off at the local post office.
I'm thinking, "I'm alive or I'm dead" - no biggie
I get back home and an hour has passed since the fight began. I log back into Dartmud and to my surprise, the fight is still going on.
I check out some help files on combat and learn to swing with both arms. I set my combat allocations and away I went.
Another 15 minutes later and the deer was dead. CHEER !!!
Unfortunately I had nothing on me to skin or buther the corpse.
Ahhhhhh such is life......
