What about a directory (like the brand new 'list' one, or like the docs, areas and code ones) where people can put quests on, with ideas and the like, these could have three sections (as I see it): 1.-Background story: This would be the story that gives ground to the quest (if any) or the purpose of it. Can be written in any style you want..:) 2.-Implementation: How would you do it (create new objects/rooms/mobiles, invisibly follow the guys, helping them out) and what prizes should, if any, have the quest (there are quests so amusing that noone expects a prize..:) 3.-Special things to enhance the quest/Things in your mud that ease it: For example spec_procs, special commands. etc.. Just an idea.. there may be some very good writers around (some implementors *do know* that their builders do have literary skills), maybe there could be a book or a compendium later. "The book of the Quests" or something similar (or maybe an indexed web site). Maybe it is that I just felt that it was such a great idea, maybe it isn't, who knows..:) If you want to do it, let me know... If furry has problems with it (he already has a very large site to take care of) maybe I can make something about it (last option). Greets Myth PS: Has anyone donde anything in their commands list or in general with their muds to ease the quests handling? I've seen in Strom's and others that they say they have commands for quests, what would a good addition for handling questsbe? PS2: I don't know why I insist on writing 'PS's if noone ever answers them... I should make two posts and spam the list twice..:P (jsut kidding) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eduardo Gutierrez de Oliveira eduo@sparc.ciateq.conacyt.mx Administrador de Internet Internet Administrator Proveedor de Servicio Internet Internet Service Provider CIATEQ, A.C.
