One of DragonRealms earliest bards predicts magic shenanigans due to a Big Bad Evil Guy! Matt and I discussed Draughtman's Challenge, being a bard, roleplaying, the future of DR, SimuCon outdrinking the Hells Angels, the "unconvention year," and more!

Binu was shunned from his DragonRealms guild over being perceived as defending necromancers, says he will only apologize to the Warrior Mage Guild on a condition. We talk scripting, roleplaying, magic issues, crafting, Draughtman's Challenge and more!

Meet Chyral, the Pink Paladin as we explore the world of DragonRealms! Chyral and I talk roleplaying, the Order of the Dragon Shield, magic having issues, her in-game wedding, wild stories from DR, spirit beasts, siegery, the future of DR and a lot more!

The other night I dreamed that I was roleplaying on a MUD or something. Now, in the waking world, in a MUD, every "room" (that is, a discrete location in the game's world) needs to be an actual object in a database; you can do some minor shenanigans, but they won't be "in different places", they're still functionally one location for all practical purposes. However, in the dream, I discovered an area where you could, like, enter a sort of procedural gardnen where each room corresponded to an "RGB color", meaning there were 16777216 rooms. In one room, two people were RPing Tenshi Hinanawi and Shion Yorigami as girlfriends; one of them may have been a former friend I had a falling out with years ago.

I may have briefly woken up and then fallen asleep again, but as I was waking up completely the second time, my brain produced the statement, "The word 'virus'" (referring to the biological kind) "has exactly two syllables; however, using our new antivirus software, we can fix that!" What does that mean. My subconscious will clearly not be taking any questions at this time.
