NewDay, a TinyMUCK running Doran's DaemonMUCK code at zeus.calpoly.edu 4201
(129.65.16.21 4201) invites all refugee TinyMUCK players in search of homes to
visit and perhaps stay a while!  With TimeTraveller going down for good on
Saturday, October 17, and FurryMUCK in what appears to be terminal implosion,
you'll all want someplace to flee to.  NewDay can be that MUCK for you!

Yes, NewDay is up.  It does tend to go down every Sunday for system mainte-
nance.  The Monday and Tuesday downtime was one of "those things." :(

NewDay has a main world that is laid out in a tranquil countryside, but has
other worlds based on such concepts as Terry Gilliam's "Brazil" available for
you to "dream" to.   We invite builders to build apartments, homes, and even
large areas.

A lot of people have seen ads like this that invite builders and visited the
MUCK in question, only to find out that the wizards didn't tell you everything
in the ad... and voila, you find out that _you_ can't build, but friends of
the wizards can.  NewDay doesn't work like that.  Although we may caution you
to start slow and work your way up, we have not refused anyone the right to
build what they like and have no intention of doing so.  If your area wouldn't
fit in the main countryside, we can link it in as a "dream" world.

Two notes that should be mentioned: 
      1) "NewDay" is but one of the names of this MUCK.  Other names include: 
            * (char *) 0
            * traumahound's paradise of scoobyism
            * Private Idaho
            * LimeMUCK
            * MarshMallowMUCK
            * Terra Nova
            * etc. etc.
            These are all the same MUCK.
      2) NewDay is home to the Center for enzie Research.  enzie is an
            alternate form of life which derives energy from idling, and we
            are studying him.

The boss wizards of NewDay are:
      Eos (site wizard #1)
      Doran (site wizard #2)

The "working stiffs" who are there to teach you how to build, where to link,
and whom to snuggle, are:
      Claire (player relations wizard)
      KeyLime (wizard in charge of most building)
      Lucky (MUF wizard, also a building wizard)
      MadraRua (MUF wizard, in charge of snuggling)
      traumahound (MUF wizard, in charge of the Brazil dreamworld, and so-
            called "Detective Pup")

Semi-active wizards:
      Deanatay (Python wizard)
      Spike (wizard in charge of idling [not to be confused with enzie])

No, NewDay is not a haven for wizards to sit around dark logging your tinysex. 
The "confirmed" wizard spying has now been proven to be the result of mali-
cious lying by a player.  However, NewDay *is* Mucker_All, and this means that
other players DO have the wherewithal to write simple spy programs that they
can then put on dark objects that they then stick in your room. :(  My advice:
_examine_ your room before doing anything confidential to see if any dark
objects are contained therein.  This is the inevitable result of the program-
ming freedom we've extended to people who might otherwise be prevented from
learning MUF programming.

Visit NewDay today!  (Yes, we have enough wizards.)
