Alrighty folks the DEFCON 29 CTF MUD has officially started.
The contest is simple, connect to the MUD at coremud.org on port 4000, or using https://www.mudlet.org/ connect to CoreMUD. The game can also be accessed on grapevine at https://grapevine.haus/games/core/play
A ctf board has been setup at https://ctfd.mog.ninja and has some of the challenges. Not all of the challenges are loaded on the CTF board right now, more will be added over the summer.
Rules:
1) all players competing in the CTF must name their character with DEFCON in the name, example: defconsteve
2) All defcon players will have a harder time on the game, several legacy restrictions have been added
3) All defcon players must follow the rules on CoreMUD, https://coremud.org/wiki/doku.php?id...es:defcon_29&s[]=defcon
4) Players must collect flags for completing quests and other achievements. The flags for the CTF will be displayed in the flag room, flags must be entered on the CTFd site
5) the flag room can be accessed from 0,0,0 by going 3 north, 1 west and then down twice
6) Its listed in core's rules, but no multiplaying, the only exception is if you already have a legal core player, then you may make one extra defcon player
7) no writeups of cores quests are to be published on the internet, with the exception of the area known as the funhouse
8) unlike last year in game bugs are not to be exploited, instead they are to be reported, there will likely be flags for reported bugs
9) building an area with core's in game builder tools also will result in flags being issued
10) the DEFCON Code of conduct applies
11) There will be additional flags issued within 1 week of defcon, past quest completions will count towards issued flags
12) in the event of a tie, the top 5 players files will be analyzed to determine a winner
13) Do not try and win the CTF by rooting the box, rooting the box will result in disqualification from this and future MUD CTF's.
Prizes so far will be either a defcon 30 human badge (paid for by EvilMog), or an amazon gift card for 200$ USD, other prizes may be offered depending on sponsorship.
Go forth and compete in the hardest DEFCON MUD Yet, this is the original game which last years CTF was based off of, good luck, you will need it.
Note: Flags may be awarded for quests, monster killing, reaching certain levels of ore mined, and other positive interactions with the game. Players caught trigger mining will find the game much harder. Also speed walking may cause certain issues.
