I'm seeking volunteers for writing some dialogue that I can't be arsed to do.

You need to

1) be good at writing dialogue.
2) have good knowledge of the Gods - enough to write something like the deity specific elements of the old death sequence.
3) be able to keep secrets
and
4) have very high frustration tolerance, as you might not see your work in game any time soon - or at all, if I decide it's not up to scratch

And finally you need to:
5) be able to accept that I will correct any incorrect (American) spellings.

Contact me here or via mudmail if you're interested.

Honestly, next thing you know they'll be wanting measurements in metric. *Shudders*

Alright, the comment about American spellings being incorrect was a bit insensitive of me. I was only teasing, but apologies if anyone was actually offended.

That said, the whole area is in British english spelling, so the dialogue will need to be the same, for consistency. And before anyone suggests it, no, I am not going back to edit my hundreds of existing files into American spellings :p

The advantage of English being a second language - I usually cannot tell British and American spelling apart! But I don't really have a good enough grasp on gods for this sort of work.

The British have done some things well, like they made city worth riding a pony in. But spelling was not on the list.

But if you need help still after I finish writing up equipment for Ares sure. But right now Im stretched thin.

The project this task is in aid of is approaching completion - and I have some contributions (thanks!), with plenty of room for more, if anyone is in a position to volunteer fairly soon.

Comes with the opportunity of a sneak preview of the flavour of a new area if you want it.
