In this page you will find comments from people that played the game back then.
Not much so far, but i hope that more people will learn about this site later.
Let's start with Pollux. Pollux wrote a post on his blog mentioning MUDA and
i posted a comment about this site. Got this mail back:

|Gandalf: |
| As soon as I started reading your comment, I got a huge nostalgia |
| attack. |
| |
|As far as I can remember, my character was named Pollux and belonged |
|to the Grey Swords guild (or whatever name the guilds had at that |
|time). I remember whispering to Bobo, the unsteady room, killing the |
|bull with arrows, but shooting them from the next room (when it was |
|still alowed), being able to look at a distant room, being able to |
|complete some of the easiest quest, taking notes and composing a map |
|with the only other friend in campus who also played (he belonged to |
|the Round Table). I remember all the begging to the high level users |
|(gods maybe) in order to get items created or personalized. |
| |
|My deep thanks, from my inner child. My academic child is not so |
|thankful, but to hell with it, I finished my career anyway. |

| I remember being on there being a member of The Children of the |

| gf on the game was a girl SoulCatcher she was in The Greyswords I |
| think...we would have major battles with the Lords of Chaos and one |
| of my IRL friends at where I played at Eastern Kentucky University |
| played Anthrax who was in the Lords of Chaos we would drink beer |
| and eat pizza and play all night oh those were the days....ever |
| think about bringing it back? |

| Dear fellows from MUDA, |
| |
| Lately I was feeling somewhat melancholic and started searching the |
| web for all kinds of old games. And you will guess it - I discovered|
| Gandalf's MUDA memorial site. I was more than pleased to read the |
| old known names and texts from 20 years ago. I do not remember how I|
| initially got to the game but I do well remember that I was totally |
| addicted at that time. I was working at the European Space |
| Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt/Germany... well... I am still |
| there today! ;) They were connected to the BITNET, and there were a |
| few hidden terminals in some hidden rooms. No need to tell you |
| more... |
| |
| I made it up to Mage in a few weeks with the great help of the other|
| Mages and Semigods like Haribo, Natasha, Thomas, Pollux, Terminator,|
| and of the Gods Grego and Marty. And I remember the bad guy Rambo |
| who killed me many times (besides Kthulhu, that is!) :) By the way -|
| Marty is a German and he really visited us in Darmstadt one day, so |
| we did shakehands in real life!! Then I participated in the first |
| Semigod elections - and I was elected!! What a great experience. I |
| remember well my arch-enemy and co-Semigod from Greece - he cheated |
| with the elections and he did other nasty things I would rather |
| forget - ok, it's forgotten now! :) |
| |
| The best thing - I have got the MUDA source code (from Marty?), and |
| I kept it on my hard disk during all those years. I came across it |
| from time to time, and that is why I never forgot MUDA. Now, what do|
| you think about resurrecting MUDA? There are emulators around like |
| Regina Rexx, and I have a web server running in the internet. Is |
| that something we should try to achieve? |
| |
| Anyway, I wish you all good luck and perhaps we can rejoin some |
| time... in good old MUDA!! |
