I used to wake up at 4-5am to play DiscworldMUD before school.

I had at least one character in every guild and each time waking up fresh in the mended drum was like being born again.

Doing "The Run" as an assassin was just the right amount of stress and excitement and when your Wyrm sword finally stops being limp as a warrior.

Having player-character witch friends you could call to fly in on their brooms and drop off healing potions for you was old-school-cool.

I've been a gamer all my life, but nothing will, or has ever compared to the experience of playing the Discworld MUD. It's been 15+ years since I played so I don't know if it's still there, or what it's like now, but I'll never go back.
