Should we give credit for our ideas too? (http://nodwick.humor.gamespy.com/gamespyarchive/index.php?date=2006-09-20)

Sure if people want to.
I forgot about that little strip. It's kind of become a running gag among some people I know.
Thanks for the catch.

I'm thinking adding an ever updating map and then room/post numbers to both the map and descriptions will help people know what the status is.
-
hmmm, should you limit the exits to 2 since one always has to lead back to the area where you came from? Or should you add a list that states where you came from, therefore keeping the exits down to two?
I see what was done there. My bad. And EP's. I think he was a bit confused. EP's start would have been from "Orc in a Hole" and the exits would be "Hamlet of Shades" and something else. Right?
-
No EP did it right. He took one of the Exits from the Orc in a Hole room an built on that. So his start is right.
It's kind of like a choose-your-own-adventure book. It tells you where to go next but not necessarily where you have been. Thus each time someone starts reading the thread they could have a completely different experience from someone else reading the thread.
I don't think people necessarily have to include an exit back to where they came from

I keep meaning to get in on this but have been so busy. Maybe this week I'll have time to start a map.
