| | MUD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | MUDs are typically fashioned around the dice rolling rules of the Dungeons and Dragons (DandD) series of games. |  | | This contrasts with other forms of mud role-playing styles such as storytelling and freestyle mushes in which role-play is conducted between players and OOC communications are more important. |  | | Traditional MUDs implement a fantasy world populated by elves, goblins, and other mythical or fantasy-based races with players being able to take on any number of classes, including warriors, mages, priests, thieves, druids, etc., in order to gain specific skills or powers. |

| | As the Wheel Weaves, a Wheel of Time MUD |
 | | Most MUDS have a core of commands which players use to move around and interact with each other. |  | | An LPMUD Wizard is a player who has won the game, and is now able to create new sections of the game. |  | | A good rule of thumb is to first ask around for specifics on that server; average muds need around 25 megs of disk space for everything, and about 10 megs of memory, although the exact numbers vary widely. |

| | Early MUD History |
 | | The game is weakened by the fact that the authors distribute the game in binary form, not source code, and the provided scenario is very difficult to customize well. |  | | MUNDI was written by some MUD players at Warwick University and never distributed. |  | | To go back to the original MUDs, I think you'd have to go to the UK. |

| | Big Ball of Mud |
 | | When a system becomes a BIG BALL OF MUD, its relative incomprehensibility may hasten its demise, by making it difficult for it to adapt. |  | | The code exhibits the unmistakable signs of patch after patch at the hands of multiple maintainers, each of whom barely understood the consequences of what he or she was doing. |  | | If more high-minded architectural approaches are to compete, we must understand what the forces that lead to a BIG BALL OF MUD are, and examine alternative ways to resolve them. |

| | What is a MUD |
 | | On other MUDs you can also interact with a game world where you can explore, fight monsters, and collect treasure, either alone or in the company of other players that are logged on. |  | | On others, you must play the game long enough to advance to a Wizard level at which time you can add new areas to the game. |  | | On some MUDs, the environment itself can be changed and expanded by the players themselve. |

| | jargon, node: MUD |
 | | The acronym MUD is often lowercased and/or verbed; thus, one may speak of `going mudding', etc. |  | | AberMUD and other variants crossed the Atlantic around 1988 and quickly gained popularity in the U.S.; they became nuclei for large hacker communities with only loose ties to traditional hackerdom (some observers see parallels with the growth of Usenet in the early 1980s). |  | | Historically, MUDs (and their more recent progeny with names of MU- form) derive from a hack by Richard Bartle and Roy Trubshaw on the University of Essex's DEC-10 in the early 1980s; descendants of that game still exist today and are sometimes generically called BartleMUDs. |
