social
["The hustle and bustle of a thriving town coaxes you to enter into the happy festivities. The town square is the main center of prosperity, and it goes without saying that people of all persuasions work and play together rather peacefully in this welcoming place. Rumor has it that years and years ago, magical stones played an important part in the building of the town.. a kind of 'mystical' and 'magical' beginning. Some areas are reminders of these times, and some are reminders of hippie happiness. You can almost hear whispers on the wind saying... 'Peace and happiness!' and... 'Let's be happy!' Beautiful beaches line the eastern edge, with clear, cool water that sparkles like tiny stars in the sunlight. This is a place of diversity, with the common thread of friendship binding it all together."]

I am also currently writing a MUD system which will allow for both MOO and MUD (either basically is optional though) for the players. You will not be required to play the MUD, or play the MOO really, except for certain things that might be necessary (I am still developing this, so to say what it will be like is impossible). I hope you will join us, and leave a message to Merlin if you wish to be a public builder/programmer."]

SyrinxMOO 7 December 99

social
[The theme is "The Temples of Syrinx", the fictional area as sung about in Rush's masterpiece "2112". In this musical work, the hero lives in a land of opression and grim reality. In this future society of the year 2112 AD, the leaders have taken away most of man's technology, art, etc. Our hero, while walking to the temples one day, unearths a great new wonder. He notes that it has "wires that vibrate, and give music...". This "strange device", or a guitar as it is known to us, caused him to review his opressive existence and seek to break the bonds that held him... a fitting topic in today's networked world. SyrinxMOO is a story about the rediscovery of society, technology, and ourselves... a quest to expand and discover beyond the chains and fetters of authority.]
