My standard advice to anyone who wants to start their own mud is to use the base to which you are the most familiar. Be that ROM, Circle, Smaug, or whatnot. If you regularly play on a Smaug mud, you will be more at ease as a starting admin/coder with taht code because you know how it functions on the player's side of things, which makes it easier in theory to look at from a coder/admin side of things...
Personally, my base is ROM, which is because 95% of all muds which I played previous to making my own were ROM, and upon asking lots of people at the time I was starting, they gave the same advice which I give, "Use what you know"...
Good luck, and if you have questions, feel free to ask on either the administrator or coding forums, I'm an admin of both.
