I started on computers sometime in the first grade and haven't ever really given them up (my dad was/is a programmer, go figgure). I started my formal training in High School with a Pascal class but I didn't let that get me down for too long. About 3.5 years ago I started hanging out on talkers but soon graduated to MUDing on Sanctuary, a merc/rom/diku with a strong player base but not much in the imp department. After about 3 months of that I heard about a group of people who got sick of the imps on sanc and were starting up their own Mud, so I dropped by and offered up my services as a programmer. I worked on what was to become Eternity of Discord (EOD) for about a year before it died when the owner got sick of it (several of the players didn't want to drop it and I know of atleast 2 spinoffs, but that's neither here nor there). Round about the beginning of october of last year I started looking into working on my departmental honors requreiments and got to talking about ways to improve existing muds with a friend. About a year and half, 3x4 credit hour classes and a 35 page paper later, I'm still heavily in the design phase of many of the concepts but the main ideas revolve around building a system that will support several different clients and building a multi-processing environment for the game mechanics. I've just started re-working the original partial incarnation of the system to an OO design, and I just started my DB class which has given me a lot of ideas on how to handle things that were bothering me before. I tend to lurk more than post, mainly because I'm holding down an 8-5 job and taking 6 credithrs of classes at the same time, trying to finish this bloody degree off! :) Welcome to the list. :) -Greg </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00013.html">A late introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00015.html">Re: Event-driven?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00012.html">Re: Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00020.html">Re: Introduction</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00014"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00014"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: Event-driven?</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00030" HREF="msg00030.html">Re: Event-driven?</A></strong>, coder <a href="mailto:coder#ibm,net">coder#ibm,net</a>, Mon 07 Apr 1997, 08:34 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00034" HREF="msg00034.html">Re: Event-driven?</A></strong>, Jon A.
