Thank you @Viravain. You scared the heck out of me before my morning coffee.

The pleasure is always mine when my victims commune members enjoy their time with me.

Re: Mudlet Code Snippets - post any useful ones you might have here!

So, since I had to switch to Mudlet because of the OSX Catalina update awhile back, and had no desire to try and get demonnic's chatbox working (nothing against it, I just felt it was overcomplicated for my needs), I decided to build a chatbox out of the newish Adjustable Container stuff in Mudlet. It's simple, not tabbed, but it fits my needs perfectly. Been using it for a few months, had zero issues.

Screenshot:

Image: https://i.ibb.co/M5XBcWJ/Screen-Shot-2020-11-20-at-9-09-27-PM.png

Installation Instructions:
1. Create the Windows folder and 3 scripts specified in Scripts Layout below, pasting in the relevant section of code into each.
2. Restart Mudlet.
3. Move and resize to your liking (click-drag top to move, click-drag lower right to resize). You can optionally right click and hit "lock" to lock it in place and remove the green borders.

Scripts layout:

Windows (Folder)
   |- Chat Window
   |- GMCP Chat Hook
   |- GMCP enable chat

Windows code

win = win or {}

Chat Window code

function win.createChat()
  win.chatparent = Adjustable.Container:new({name="win.chatparent"})
  win.chat = Geyser.MiniConsole:new({
    name="win.chat",
    x="0%", y="0%",
    width="100%", height="100%",
    autoWrap=true,
    scrollBar=true,
    fontSize=12
  }, win.chatparent)
  win.chat:setColor(0,0,0,255)
end

registerAnonymousEventHandler("sysLoadEvent", "win.createChat")

GMCP Chat Hook code

function win.handleCommChannelText()
  local text = ansi2decho(win.stripMXP(gmcp.Comm.Channel.Text.text)) .. "\n"
	win.chat:decho(text)
end

function win.stripMXP(str)
  return str:gsub("\27%[4z\3.-\4", '')
end

registerAnonymousEventHandler("gmcp.Comm.Channel.Text", "win.handleCommChannelText")

GMCP enable chat code

function win.opencomms()
	sendGMCP('Core.Supports.Add ["Comm.Channel 1"]')
end

registerAnonymousEventHandler("gmcp.Char.Name", "win.opencomms")

Re: Tweets VIII: Knocks Me Off My Tweet

I intended for Selenity to write a philosophy book. It's becoming a self-help book instead.

The Grimkeep shop and shopkeeper are awesome! Yusss.

Of course the endzone is neat too. I'm excited to see what other secrets there are.

Someone keeps leaving dog feces in my front yard when I'm away during the day. It makes me want to go buy chalk and write "Pick up after your dog" on every single sidewalk tile spanning my property, but I'm not sure if that'd just make it worse.

There's an apartment building near where I live that has a sign that says "Do not allow your dog to pee on our lawn. I AM ALWAYS WATCHING" and to be honest, I am afraid they are always watching.

Re: Lack of Raves VI: Rave Today, Tweet Tomorrow

There is a ME ikon and it blinds people with radiance and it ME and I must gather many of me so I can fling them at people and so they can blind people and it ME I'm an ikon and holy fucking shit

Minister Mboagn Lunarose says, "You have more ikony goodness?!"

Glowing in tune with her words, you say, "Yes yes, and I must show you one in particular!"

Minister Mboagn Lunarose says, "The Great Mysrai must have been very busy..."

You flit about happily.

Acknowledging Mboagn's point to be true, you nod your head gravely at them.

<ikoning>

You play the Beacon.

You confirm that you are finished playing your Ikons, the round will now continue.

It is now the Battle phase of Turn 1.
You have the advantage.

The shining form of the Beacon hurries forward and trembles with delight for a few moments before you before beginning to glow with strobing brilliance. Though Mboagn shields their eyes, they suffers 2 points of arcane damage nonetheless.

Glowing in tune with her words, you whisper, "Look it me."

You strike a pose, arms above you as you radiate soothing alabaster light.

You concede defeat in your Ikon battle with Mboagn.

Minister Mboagn Lunarose exclaims, "It's...what!"

You flit about happily.

You strike a pose, arms above you as you radiate soothing alabaster light.

Mboagn gives a short gasp of elation.

Minister Mboagn Lunarose exclaims, "It was a you!"

Glowing in tune with her words, you say, "It me! I shine!"

Mboagn rolls on the floor, laughing.

Minister Mboagn Lunarose says, "Okay, that's impressive."

WHY don't we have any considerable mugwumpish settlements?!

We do/did! It's just evolved since then to become a cosmopolitan wonder of the Times of Weakness and, further down the line, the industrial capital of the Basin.

PS. Oh! And also [REDACTED]. How could I have forgotten about [REDACTED].

On an ooc level, I always feel like the gods don't like me but the admin are too polite to actually say it. I understand the need to separate the god from the admin role, but at the same time, I feel like it raises hopes of interactions that likely won't happen because the admin doesn't look forward to it.

I have never in all my years related to something more on these forums. Granted I interact with very few divine, and I know there are probably very good reasons that I'm less desirable for interaction, it never stings any less when I think about it. The envy is strong when it comes to other players.
