#4754, "How not to start out..."


          

So this is the first MUD I've tried in over 20 years. Since CF is over 20 years old, I thought it would be perfect and perfectly old-school.

So what should I play? I know, I will spin up an old idea for a character and make him fresh. Huukor, an ugly dumb goblin who likes mischief. Hm, home town? Sure, "Goblin Outpost" seems appropriate.

Apparently there are few maps available online... that I can find. All the Angelfire hosted images are blocked if you're not already a member. That's okay, I will just map my own!

There seems to be few options for food in the game, at least in my circumstances, so I am now just watching "You are hungry..." scroll past. So far, I am earning one copper per rabbit I kill, and I can't even eat the rabbit. Maybe I just don't know the right thing to do in the Meat Shack. There are tips on how to EAT in the newbie guides but not exactly how to BUY. Oh, HELP BUY let me learn how to LIST what is for sale. Eyeballs on a stick. Deee~lish! If I spend all I own, I can get two whole meals out of the bargain.

I have no idea where the Academy is, anymore. I haven't even found an actual city yet. I better learn where there's good hunting soon.
