This is a short interview with the ZombieMUD Archwizard Pittis. It is in finnish, but there is also an english translation. The meaning of the original comments may have changed slightly because of the translation.
Breath: Terve!
Olen Breath Breathin ZombieMUD Archive sivuilta! Esittelisitko
itsesi lukijoillemme?
[Hi! I am
Breath from Breath's ZombieMUD Archive pages! Could you introduce
yourself to our readers?]
Pittis: olen
suuri arkkivelho PITTIS, kaikki kumartavat nimedni
[I am the
humble archwizard Pittis, I am here to protect, serve and help
the players]
B: oletko ollut
kauan arkkivelho ja onko se raskasta? mita kaikkea toimenkuvaasu
kuuluu?
[How long
have you been an archwizard and is it a hard work? What kind of
things archwizards do?]
P: arkkivelhoilu
on todella raskasta, tehtaviin kuuluu syyttomien bannaaminen seka
zappaaminen ja kaikenlainen muu kiusaaminen
[Some may
consider being an archwizard to be very hard work, but because of
all the nice players here the work is really fun and rewarding.
Archwizards are here to help players and code new things for them]
B: loytyyko
noita syyttomia paljon? eiko niiden etsiminen ole vaikeaa?
[Sometimes
you also have to find and punish players who have done illegal
deeds, is that hard?]
P:syyttomia on
vaikea loytaa mutta onneks arkkivelho toveri WAAAR on tehnyt
ohjelman joka loytaa aina pelista satunnaisen syyttoman jota
kiusata
[Finding
those persons isn't that hard, but it is the punishing part that
I hate, most of the archwizards like Waaar totally agree with me
on this]
B: teilla
velhoilla taitaa olla oikein hyva toverihenki! teetteko yhdessa
muutakin kuin kiusaatte syyttomia, esim kaytte piknikeilla yms?
[You wizards
seem to have really good team spirit! Do you do other things
togethet besides controlling the mud?]
P: joo, olen
nahnyt eraan aloittelevan velhon (dranil) paikallisissa
ravitsemusliikkeissa silloin talloin, myos vanhasta arkkivelhosta
(ZEITH) on samanmoisia havaintoja
[Yes, we
like to study and go to movies with each other. Usually some
wizards like Dranil and Zeith help me with my homework]
B: velhon tyo
kuulostaa paitsi hauskalta myos haastavalta, teilla taytyy olla
hyva palkkausjarjestelma, kertoisitko hieman siita?
[Being a
wizards sounds to be really fun stuff to do, what kind of reward
you get from it?]
P: palkaksi saa
paskaa ja whinea
P: ja mielihyvaa toisten kiusaamisesta
[The best
reward is to know that you are helping people]
B: paskanhan
me kaikki tunnemme mutta kertoisitko tarkemmin tasta whinesta,
mita se on ja saatteko sita riittavasti?
[It is nice
to know that you truly enjoy your job, is there any other way
players could reward you for your great job?]
P: whine on aina
jos joku puhuu jotai kanavilla tai sanoo jotain
P: myos newssit ja tellit ovat whinea
[I really
love it when mortals tell their worries and problems to me..
Channels and news aren't that good forum, I prefere that players
use tells when contacting me]
B: kertoisitko
hieman zombiemudin tulevaisuuden nakymista ja siita mita itse
aiot tehda jatkossa?
[Could you
tell us something about the future of the ZombieMUD and your part
in it?]
P: md ldhen nyt
ravitsemusliikkeeseen!
[Yes, we
will make ZombieMUD the best mud in the world, we have the best
players, wizards and athmosphere! Sorry, but now I have to go to
study and drive my mother to the church, may the God be with you!]
There is a loud
clap of thunder.
Lightning strikes!
That really HURT!
You die.
You have strange feeling.
You can see your own dead body above.
[inform]: Breath dies.
