Hey everyone! So, here it is, the very first episode of the Stick in the MUD Podcast. I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am to see this having gone from an idle “yeah, that’d be cool to do” idea to “wow, I’m actually doing this!”
I talk about what a MUD is, and what the plans are for the podcast going forward. For veterans of MUDs, there won’t really be anything new that you won’t already know, but the primary goal here at Stick in the MUD Podcast is to grow the number of people interested in MUDs and for that we need a good starting point.

It’d be great if you could expand into more than just MUDs, but other text-based roleplaying games collectively under the MU* banner. Speak about the coded system vs. the non-coded system variety, branded rulesets vs. homebrew, etc.

Agreed!

Hey Wyrdathru,
I actually do intend to cover more than just MUDs. I have played several MU* games over the years that didn’t have coded combat or anything of the sort that would be needed to consider the game a MUD. As far as the podcast title and such goes, Stick in the MU* Podcast just lacks that snap that Stick in the MUD provides.
Don’t worry though. The next episode will be focused on discussing the different types of MU*s, as opposed to just MUDs.

MOO’s too. This will be a great medium to also speak about administrative problems seen in many such games. Great job, Tark.
