I’m really glad you’re enjoying Second Person, and am overjoyed that you’d like to extend Munchausen‘s range into the world of Second Life.. Let me know when the project is going to go live: I know at least one Munchausen player who works at Linden Labs.

Thank you so much for the recommendation for SECOND PERSON (on Boardgamegeek, where I am “Hotspur” and you replied to an old email of mine). I blanched at the prospect of dropping forty bones for the book (MIT Press is not cheap, even through discount outlets), but the fact that Munchausen was included sort of drove me over the top. Oddly enough I’ve not cracked the appendix yet and have been completely enthralled with the nuggets inside.

Soon, I will be attempting to run Munchausen in the virtual world of “Second Life” (SL).. assuming you don’t have a problem with the idea (I do own the game twice over, and will give you the credit). Virtually, I plan a setup similar to how I recently ran “Ripper” in SL, in a victorian simulation called “Caledon”. Details here: http://mrnizz.blogspot.com/2007/03/ripper-in-second-life.html

Seeing as SL will pretty much allow anything to happen, within the limits of the technology, the idea of creating an 18th century tavern with 18th century AVIs is not so hard to imagine. I shall get the seamstress who made my Rifles uniform to devote her fingers to that project, next…

I shall devote an AAR post to the success or failure of the experiment, and if you are interested, I will send you the URL.
