Okay I am hearing your RESOUNDING SILENCE
so I wrote a README and I encourage you to follow Egbert's lead as a hashtag game on the mastodon, tagged with #lispmoo2jam ; in which case I will add you to the honorary jam roll and your constructions to the git, and update the current map, like I did for Egbert.
#lisp #commonLisp #lispmoo2 #moo #collaborative #worldbuilding
https://lispy-gopher-show.itch.io/lispmoo2/devlog/837333/lispmoo2-instructions-important
Questions solicited but tbh construct something as well here or there plz

To be clear, First Egbert wrote this:
https://codeberg.org/tfw/lispmoo2/src/branch/main/games/egberts.limo
then Egbert added this, to connect to my place:
https://codeberg.org/tfw/lispmoo2/src/branch/main/games/egberts-2.limo
Basically use structure like Egbert does.

@gnemmi can I get you onto the Honorary Jam Roll? Ie with
(uiop:ensure-package :gonzalo :nicknames '(:gnemmi))
{ @create $room :named gnemmi::oasis-of-freedom } x
{ @go gnemmi::oasis-of-freedom } x
{ @dig northwest :to screw::lisp-leanto } x
?
(Customizeable or disavowable to your heart's content)

@gnemmi
@vidak also looking at you o_o

@vidak
I know it is within your ken to type
(uiop:ensure-package :vidaks)
{ @create $room :named vidaks::cyberpunk-freedom-lab } x
{ @go vidaks::cyberpunk-freedom-lab } x
{ @dig southeast :to screwtapes::mountain-trail } x

You don't have to actually run it on your system, just say that you're participating here on the mastodon ;p
There's @describe and @verb as well but those are kinda broad topics
@gnemmi

@vidak
Yeah the DSL would work great for that (maybe not the whole common lisp image thing..).
I've been shy about taking a run at implementing @dump - which I will do in a way that can be loaded into either of lispmoo2 or lambdamoo (but I will need to lay some groundwork inside lambdamoo for this to work without hitch, and the consuming-of-common-lisp will be verboten for those purposes, like your 8 bit port idea)
@dig @gnemmi

@screwtape of course you can! I'd actually feel honoured if you did so!

@dig

@gnemmi
Thank-you for joining in first! You can always let me know if you have new ideas for rooms and connections, or would like to add some writing to a room or something. (We can talk about actually-joining-in the world as it grows later).
@vidak

@screwtape thank you for letting me join in!
I was taking a look at the src when I saw commit pop in!
Super exciting =D

@vidak

@gnemmi
I think that sharing our completely-real-computer-programs-and-writing by creating them as tangible, shareable objects in a sort of medley of "roleplay" laboratories and places gives us opportunities for real collaboration that are a bit harder if I just say, well, you could download my git and familiarize yourself with the code... So, thank-you for helping get us started!
@vidak

@screwtape as I was looking at the code (and in the context of the toot I'm replying to) I was thinking that I couldn't draw a line between collaborative programming and art even if I wanted to.
Even deeper than that .. it struck me as "doing" ( as in "creating"?. It's kinda hard to explain) with "code as a tool" something that's actually alive !

@vidak

@theruran also looking at you!
what's a lab theme that captures the vibe of memory-safe garbage collection?
@gnemmi @vidak

@screwtape @gnemmi @vidak what's a lab theme? like a MOO world?

@theruran
yeah, if we add a subgraph for you, what would your own rooms and needs be. (I will immediately add you).
@gnemmi @vidak

@screwtape @gnemmi @vidak I don't know. it would be like a comfy forest and a reading nook and a workshop where I feel safe to experiment, play, and meditate.

@theruran
Okay, I just drafted you in here; adjustments and additions l m k, graphviz dot's clustering algorithms take up with AT&T labs primarily.
(uiop:ensure-package :theruran)

{ @create $room :named theruran::comfy-forest } x
..theruran::reading-nook } x
..theruran::memsafe-workshop } x

{ @verb theruran::memsafe-workshop :is
( com-experiment ) } x
..(com-play ) } x
..(com-meditate ) } x

@gnemmi @vidak

@screwtape @gnemmi @vidak neat!

@theruran
I'm not entirely sure what happened to glitch NORTH and NORTHWEST, I must have a typo or there was a glitch in the matrix
@gnemmi @vidak

@theruran Oh no NORTHWEST is just quite a long word, and was pointing at gnemmi::oasis-of-freedom
@gnemmi @vidak

@mdhughes can I recruit you into this Wumpus hunt of a world so far?

@theruran @gnemmi @vidak

@screwtape @theruran @gnemmi @vidak Yeah, maybe in a bit, gotta focus a bit on "real work".

@mdhughes
I'm just throwing in subgraphs of rooms and connections people loosely want as a starting point, if you feel enthused later we could do a git submodule
@theruran @gnemmi @vidak
