Check out the stream about BatMUD by Massively.com:
http://www.bat.org/u/LSL

I found it an excellent view on how a newbie sees our game.
Actually, one of the methods for testing a user interface is
to video a person using it and telling him think out loud.

Anyways, every wiz should take a look at the video and start
correcting the stuff the guy found confusing. :) Especially:
- The map window should be defaulted to a monospace font!
- The very first thing Azalea should say how quests work in BatMUD.
- ANSI colour term :) ...and every other thing he pointed out.

He also talked about an article he was going to write
about the game, anyone found it yet?

Many of us wizards watched it live. Amarth and I have both been in contact
with Beau on a personal basis. Suggestions have been made and set in motion.
Also, the article doesn't come out until Sunday.
