This is still displayed at the old address. It seems Chalmers hasn't pulled the plug yet, so I think people will find us if they look there.

Typing words "genesis" and "mud" into any internet search engine might help as well.

Oh well, I guess Acionyx messed something up then :)
And wasn't there a different address before tekno.chalmers? I remember it changed to it from something else entirely, or maybe it changed after that...

Close! It was spica3.cs.chalmers.se ... back in college in 93-94, I forced myself to manually type it every time I logged in so that I would never forget it if I wasn't at my home computer.

Since that was shorter to type..
As I was telneting in must have typed that a good couple of thousand times before.

I think for example the last free zmud has genesis as that.

Forgive me if I am wrong, this was almost 20 years ago.

I thought before spica3 it was hamal2.chalmers.se 3011? When the game's uptime before we switched to spica3 was maybe an hour or two at best? The game would lag so badly it would either crash at high memory, or you'd die from a lag spike.

Then there was the one summer the game fell to its knees and everyone only had access to Sparkle and a few rooms like the post office.
