Clients[]
PC/Mac[]
We recommend using a MU* client to connect to the game in order to have the most pleasant experience. If you're not sure which one to use, Potato works well on PC, MacOS X, or Linux, and is a newer client still in active development. A lot of PC MU*ers also use SimpleMU or MUSHclient; however SimpleMU does not handle colors very well, and since our game features quite a few of them, we would not recommend using it to connect to this game.
Alternatively, Mac users may prefer Atlantis. All of these clients have the ability to do things like spawn (put different items in different windows, such as putting public channels into a different window) and log, which are very helpful for the MU* experience.
Mobile[]
Don't have a computer? Just want to MUSH on the go using your phone or tablet? There are several mobile client options. For Android, check out Mukluk. For iOS, Mudrammer is an excellent client. Both applications allow logging, multiple worlds/characters, and will display color quite nicely.
Applying[]
Robots in Disguise works from a roster system, although players are welcome to inquire about characters that may have not been rostered yet. New players are welcome to select unclaimed characters from the +roster. To view the active +roster on game, type +roster/full <faction>, where faction is Decepticon, Autobot, or Neutral. If a character is noted as having never connected in the Last On column, they generally up for grabs. Characters with a last connection date might still be available if they were only connected to NPC for a scene. You may also check +fclist to see a list of available characters, though if you are thinking of someone who is not on the list, never fear! If they aren't listed, that just means we haven't made +finger information or stats for them yet. So please do inquire after the character if interested but you find they are not listed.
