Good evening. Way too late evening, but good evening.

I'd meant to do two scenes, and I didn't. I got home about what, 7:45 in the end, I think? I was tired, and stressy, and I didn't think I'd get either scene, but I did get the one on Ashes. I was too stress-tired to try and do two scenes at once though, and I'm sorry for that. I don't know if the other person would have wanted to scene or not, I didn't ask. Not sure if I should have apologized for more than getting home way too late, which definitely played in.

I had a good evening, though. Very good. Roleplay, and hanging out with friends, and even working a bit on my poetry. It may have started late, but it was good.

Hopefully tomorrow evening will be just as good - and start on time.

Actually, the answer was more or less what I was looking for. I've done no real time online role playing (and probably won't, at least not in the forseeable future) but have heard bits and pieces about it. If I can just keep it in my head that that's what you're doing, I'm sure I'll learn quite a bit.

And I think I know other people who do AmberMUSH or who used to. Have you ever run into a character named Romnaeous (or some variation thereof)? He's the only one who's character name I know.

I've seen Romneous online, I'm not sure if we've ever roleplayed together (though we might've, I've been there several years and tend to space).

I'm Jemmael, and Alariel (at least for a bit longer), there.

Ah, I was curious. He created the original of Romnaeous in a game I was running, and I threw in a number of things that ended up defining the character's history. A year or so ago, he actually got in touch with me to ask about the details from that scenario. I've wondered if he actually did anything with them.

How many people play on AmberMUSH? How does interaction work?

[kyrielle]

Interaction in MUSH is kind of neat. There are venues for OOC conversation (page, bulletin boards, @mail/+mail, orgs and channels, etc.), some one-to-one, one-to-many, etc. Then you can pose, describe yourself, describe the room (the descriptions stay when you're not logged on), etc.

As far as Ambermush, I don't know the total playerbase. On a busy evening there may be 80-100 people on (the coronation of the King of Chaos, for example, or a significant party, etc.). Sunday mornings you may see it get down to 6-10 and I suspect it occasionally reaches 0 in the middle of the night. Maybe.
