On November 6, 1993, Moksha and Adiron were at the annual Chicago
R/C show. When they sat down to talk on some abandoned shoe-shine chairs,
they came to the final conclusion that most MUDs were becoming very boring
to play. So they started to make their own that very evening.
After many experiments with several different MUD programs, they
decided on using Merc. Merc was the most organized and well documented
they could find. They then proceeded to inform Throm that he was going to
code all of their modifications for Fox MUD. Needless to say Throm had
mixed emotions about whether to slay Moksha and Adiron on the spot or to
start the code right then and there. Thank the gods that Throm decided
on the latter. So, here is their nice little experiment. Please enjoy it
as much as they do, the world would be a better place for us all.
[Shortly thereafter, Wedge joined in, to help keep folks in line. ;') ]
[Aphrodite, Elric, Keithy, Prophet and a host of others joined by very early
1994. Crimson, Selune, & Sygis joined as Immortals in early 1994. Talisman
immorted in mid 1994. Moose, Winter and Ranger immorted in late 1994. Waldo
and Kitten immorted in 1995, and Kindyr immorted in 1998 (?).]
[Perhaps those mentioned here (or not mentioned ;') can fill Sygis
in on dates, so we can add a third paragraph to our history, please.]
[R/C show as in Radio Controlled car and plane show, fyi ;'). ]
[Each year, Fox MUD celebrates Founder's Day on or near November 6th.]
