Who among us have ever been “Fleet-of-finger” ??? [M.U.D. players]

I reckon I’m better suited to existing within the confines of a public forum driven noticeboard. After all it was noticeboards that got me hooked into online computing in the first place, way back in the mid-70s. Ahh, the heady days of interacting with workers all over the shop, who should all have been doing something far more productive, but no – we would all waste various companies time and money sitting playing M.U.D. (for the uninitiated that stands for Multi User Dungeon, and did just what it says on the tin – except that the whole game was inside a text engine) where the unwary and those that were not ‘fleet-of-finger’ fell by the wayside and usually were never ‘seen’ again.

Come on people – let’s show the kids of today what computer-games started out as!

Chuck your sad old memories right into this thread!
