Cosmere MUD

[Steel he/him]

Hi everyone!

 

I am an avid MUD player (for those who don't know, MUDs are online textbased, usually roleplaying games) and I think that there should definitely be a MUD hosted in the awesome world of Cosmere. I'm willing to host it and write all the code (unless someone wants to help), but I'd need some volunteers to help with writing the rooms and stuff, since I haven't read all of Brandon's work (workin' my way through  

 

I'd also need a people to actually play on it.

 

Anyone with suggestions or anything please reply

oh, heh,

 

Once, looong ago I played in a mud, I even helped with some simple coding(making rooms), in unix.. but that was.. I think 95? around there atleast. Since Iv never worked with coding, and havent done anything like it since I finished... I think it would be college thats it in the american system.

And unfortunately, dont quite have the time to relearn it. Its a fun idea thou. Is there actually a live mud community around still?

 

Wonder if the old "vikingmud" I used to play on is still around... hmm.

Oh, this takes me back.

 

Anyway, wouldn't you need permission to use Brandon's intellectual property in this way?

If you don't make any money, it's no worse than fanart in my opinion. Fanart is excellent. But the copyright rules might say something different.

[Steel he/him]

I think it qualifies as fanfic, since we're not making money off it?

There's tons of WoT MUDs out there and I'm sure they don't have copyright permission. I'd be surprised if there were any issues.

You know, I've never played a MUD before... Huh...

I emailed Mr. Brandon about it. Hopefully he replies
