@Kumakun The style is very cool. Also, self-plug, but I started a mu* listing site that is non-specific to codebase but focused on RP games, if you wanted to add yours: https://mustard.mythicus.net

@glitch Hey thanks! I’ll post a link here when I’ve got something more public-facing to show!
-
@glitch when you’re ready, maybe you can post a link to your directory in the bmd nav menu? That’d be pretty cool.
-
@Meg One of the admin would have to do that! I have no such power.
-
I’ll look into it.
-
HAHA IT IS DONE. It should be in the menu to the right of groups. It looks like a list. There is a limited selection of icons. If you have a mustard bottle let me know.

@Tez It unfortunately looks just like the category list.
-
@Tez Thanks!!

@Tez Thanks!!
Yeah, hella neat. Thanks @Tez for adding it there and @glitch for developing it!
(And me. For this wonderful idea to put it there.)

I’m a hopeless Pern player, so I have an idea that’s been percolating for a stretch, even if it’s butting into AU territory rather than ‘proper’ Pern. I just need to get started with it to see if it actually has legs (and, if not, well- that’s fine, too.) Getting the details together on paper is easy. The hard part is (re)learning Python to tackle Evennia, because that seems like the only codebase that will properly do some of the things I need.

@Tez xD
The short form: the genetic programming for dragons is breaking down. They’ll still Impress, there aren’t any sport colors or anything, but they would be free of the ‘can’t hurt humans’ and ‘can’t hurt other dragons outside of flights’ restraints. Ideally, dragon traits would be inherited, so you get lines of dragons that have higher fertility (and might be bred for it), greater endurance, larger (or smaller) sizes, etc.
Humanity would be more… human-acting. Tattoos and piercings would be back on the menu. War would be a thing with Holders coveting land, engaging in hostile takeovers, and more Fax-like figures on the rise. Man vs. man, dragon vs. dragon. No AIVAS, but probably steampunk levels of tech, since… well, they have a fuckton of time between Threadfalls to work on developing stuff. It’d be adjusting for things that would just make a little more sense (to me, anyway) buuut that’s why it’s knocking on the door of an AU if not outright kicking it in.

@lucidmaus man. I also had a version of this game percolating in my mind for a while, especially with dragons becoming more inherently violent and with Weyrs wanting more power and tithes, which has basically become war between the Weyrs and Holders for control of Pern in the current time, with a small sect of dragonriders being on the Holder side.

I had a dragon on HT that killed a couple of dudes and it was amazing. PLUS, her dad had killed a dude so she was like “Look dad no hands!”
-
@Meg ahhhh, yesss. I want that. I want that so bad. Anything to break the klah-sipping and stale Threadfall cycle (and, yes, I love running Threadfall, but there’s only so much ‘dragonth burns ye clump of silver death’ a person can do).

You clearly have not fought Thread on FS3 combat.
That shit is AMAZING.

@lucidmaus if you wanna hit me up after the weekend, maybe we can percolate a game together! I’ve been meaning to learn how to code on evennia anyways; I do code just not in python.
Maybe we can find our admin styles and coding skills and theme ideas all gel together and we can make a game together!
(I’m in Chicago with friends at Acen until Sunday evening. But! My discord is gem#0001.)

@Meg Friend request sent! (I’m lucidmouse#5777)
Now, excuse me while I make all the ‘eeeee’ noises at all the possibilities!
-
@KarmaBum Well, now I’m just gonna be all grabby hands about that idea, too! I missed out (unless there’s somewhere that’s doing it now and I’m just oblivious!)
