This mud would be better if you had ansi color. The way it is now I'm surprised it's so high in the top 20. You should look at adding color. Color makes a tired, boring old grey and black screen look alive.

What makes the mud good is challenge, gameplay etc. There is some color, but it is used sparingly. Firstly, it is used to help you notice things, and other than that it is only used at certain moments (e.g. some automated quests) to add atmosphere.

I believe storytellers can also use color in the Inn of the Eternal star if they are telling a story.
