Downloadable MUD list
Does anyone know if there's any free downloadable mud lists available that could be used in e.g a MUD client? For example the MudMagic website used to allow you to download the entire mud list through xml/rss.

If you do find one I would certainly purge it from all the inactive MUDs out there. TMS and TMC have 1000's listed but I'd be suprised if more than 100 had anyone on them.

Re: Downloadable MUD list
Not sure if you've read Raph Koster's article, but he made some interesting observations about playerbases sizes on muds and MMOs.
If you check out , you'll see his article is spot on - the rank 100 mud has an average of 18 players (over a 30 day period). By rank 200 it's down to an average of 9 players, while rank 300 is on 5 players, rank 400 is on 3 players and rank 500 is on 1. |

Re: Downloadable MUD list
Yeah, I've been to Mudstats and verified its listings before with complete inaccuracy. I'm not sure where they get their numbers but when I verified them they were off by huge numbers on every mud I checked (some even by 100's) which was everyone in the top 20.
