Good things in Mushing

[Testament]

I played smokers because that was during the time where I was still smoking myself. And man…I really miss smoking and RPing sometimes. It really helped me think. Holding a pen while I construct a pose just isn’t the same.

[Livia]

@Testament Yeah, I am with you on this one. I used to RP smoking all the time as a former smoker. Now I find that RPing smoking is one of the few things that gives me big cravings again so I just stopped, but I kinda miss RPing about it, weirdly.

[Wizz]

I loved RPing smokers but fuckin’ hated smoking cigarettes the few times I gave them a try as an adult, so I was genuinely baffled the entire time even as I had fun with it.

truly, we are a diverse lot, lol.

@RightMeow said in Good things in Mushing:

We are obviously overlooking the main reason to play a smoker… the ability to set your annoyance’s stuff on fire.

Right?

Is this just me?

You make me want to take up smoking.

Connecting and reconnecting with people

I saw a tweet today about the historic MUD genre and laughed.

I think people don’t know that we’re still around.

@Kestrel I was there for this groundbreaking development in online fuckery and even friends, of a sort, with Mr_Bungle, and quite good friends with the guy who responded to the whole thing by coding objects so you could text-assault people anywhere on the MOO with a two-word command.

We are historic indeed.

Getting past inertia/nerves and just reaching out to ask people if they want to RP

[Kestrel]

Seeing friends who were mistreated on other games go on to start their own creative projects, and join staff teams where their labour is appreciated & admired, gives me immense contact joy.

when a character is just really clicking

Watching players dive hard into not just exploring plot stuff, but also running stuff in order to tie into metaplot you’re real excited about is so fucking fun.

[Nilli]

Non-specific but I’m having a lot of fun lately! Things are chill, I can find RP when I want RP, people are friendly and talented and give as much as they take.

Novel idea that a hobby is relaxing and fun, I KNOW.

[tsar]

I’m having fun RPing when I can cram it in, accepting the new forms it’s taking.

Having a really good night of storytelling on your game where reveals are dropped, shit hits the fan, and you’re getting multiple reactions of “ohhhhhhhh shhhhhhiiiiiit” while your game-running partner is getting their justified praise.

Occasionally this hobby is really fun.

CAN’T POST IN THE GAME AD THREAD so I came here:

@Coin It’s so fucking charming to read about the games in our hobby like this. IDK. It just gets me. I’ve been enjoying these and I’m looking forward to the next with Faraday.
