I'm kinda new at this, and I diddled whilst on the phone,
so here's my entry.  Thanks for the starter!  But, just
out of curiosity, what are the two i's for? Is that like
the back of a carraige?

That's really good, I started out with an M (for max), played with it, and
then got tired and wanted to go to bed! I wanted to do some 'texture' on the
'castle' walls and other stuff, but i think you have done a fine job. I am
very new at this(and obviousely not very good) and probubly shouldn't have
botherd posting it, but I did, and the results look good. By the way, the
"ii" and other stuff running along the bottom are supposed to look like
rough grass and flowers 'n' stuff.

How about a MUD? There's plenty of them already out there, so it'd be a fairly
simple matter to implement the graffics. I haven't done much with programming,
but it shouldn't be too hard.  Anybody interested?

But MUDs suck =( No one will play it.

MUDs, call me lame or whatever you will, but what are they?

I have a little programming knowlege, and could quite easily create a text
based game (like those books that you choose your own fate) with ASCII art
that anyone would like to submit. But it's only an idea.

MUD = Multi User Dungeon. Multiplayer games somewhere between original text
based adventures and nethack. With worst bits from both.

Don't bother to code one. The code itself is not complex, but as with rpgs
and roguelikes the work to be done is enormous. And nobody plays them
anyways...

Well that sounds like bullocks, if not, not very objective.
There are over 1500 muds out there, many with over 100 players
and 20+ coders on at all time, some over 10 years old. So for
these people the format must be doing something right. Actually,
MUD is the first proof of what will happen when vr's that my
grandma can use, hit the masses. If it works for you, tv-addiction
is paled compared to it.
(http://www.mudconnector.com/)
Granted, it isn't as popular as during the early 90ties, with
Quake and Ultima and all. I created most of my ascii stuff in
that period, for muds, as others did.
(http://www.lstock.demon.nl/htwteat3.html)
Right now I can't remember the last time I logged on to one,
though ;) (yes there's a paradox)
