| Question 1 |
Why are you called
Cat & why Cheshire? |
| Answer: |
I was Cat before I was Cheshire. CAT
is a word in the mudspeke dictionary, which I liked the idea of. When I had been
playing a while I was dreaming about being a Wiz, and thinking what would make a
good prefix when I made it. The Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland makes the
most impact for the fewest lines in the whole book IMO, and it has the kind of
evasive (abrasive) charm I associate with wizzes :)

|
| Question 2 |
What Question in Mud
are you always asked.
(hopefully not Q1) |
| Answer: |
They are - Can I have a prefix?
(usually many times a reset), and - Why do you have a blue e in your name? - The
answers are NO, and There must be something wrong with your monitor!
Be warned
then! |
|
|
|
| Question 3 |
How long have you
been a wiz? |
| Answer: |
I'm honestly not certain. I was
first a wiz when mud2 was on Iplay. I've been a wiz on wireplay since late 1997. |
|
|
|
| Question 4 |
How long did it take
you and how often did you play? |
| Answer: |
The first site I played at was
Almac, which closed when I was first a mage. I wasn't doing much with my mage -
I'd just discovered mage paranoia, but the closure meant I didn't play at all
until someone told me that Iplay was up. When I did play, I was on almost every
day since I had no phone bill at University.Lucky thing! |
|
|
|
| Question 5 |
What's the strangest
thing you've seen in mud? |
| Answer: |
Mud weddings are fairly bizarre,
though people eating flowers for fun, and mages fodding themselves come pretty
close. There was a mage called Belgarath who tried to fod rat0 with his first
mage (he thought it would work, he hadn't read Spells & Spellshelp very
closely:)Ouch! |
|
|
|
| Question 6 |
Have you ever PK'd? |
| Answer: |
Only when I was invisible, and I
walked by someone who was asleep and close to death and didn't know I was
on.....call it human weakness if you like :) Unless you are counting Pking Pks?
If you are then hundreds of times, I had loads of running battles.
|
|
|
|
| Question 7 |
Has anyone tried to
kill you?
|
| Answer: |
Only once as a wiz <g>
I wonder who? |
|
|
|
| Question 8 |
What power has a Wiz
got. Can you do anything or are there limitations?
|
| Answer: |
Of course wizzes can do anything
they wish, however their fine moral sense keeps them from doing whatever they
think of (g). |
|
|
|
| Question 9 |
Explain Wizzies and
Arch Wizzies. |
| Answer: |
Wizzes can fod mortals, Arch-wizzes
can fod Wizzes. It's the whole heirachical thing the land has..... |
|
|
|
| Question 10 |
If you could give one
piece of advice to a player what would it be? |
| Answer: |
It's better to flee and live to flee
another day, than die to fear of losing a few k.
What a Quote! |
|
|
|
| Question 11 |
Is it possible to
become a wiz just on your own?
|
| Answer: |
Yes, the first wizzes had nothing
like the networks of people around them that exist now. It is tougher to workout
the puzzles on your own, but more satisfying I hope.
|
|
|
|
| Question 12 |
What would you say is
the hardest mobile to kill and why?
