.... MUSH is an acronym for Multi-User Simulated (or Shared) Habitat (or
Hallucination) depending on who you ask. More of an .edu thing for
simulated environments. A variation is MUSE for Multi User Simulated
Environment

There were also MUCK's (Multi User Chat Kingdoms) and MUVE's (Multi User
Virtual Environments)

And as you started MOG, MMOG, MMORPG, and some longer than that

As far as I know there is not specific definition for MUX other than
possibly fighting back against all of the other acronyms. I saw Multi
User Experience or Multi User Experiment. Mostly it just started showing
up as a type of online game with little difference between it and any MUD
other than MUDs have mostly shifted toward "Dungeon" and MUX have shifted
toward SciFi

MUX = multiplexer (telephone usage), so maybe multi user extension in games.

In that group? MUDs. I even have one that I cant seem to get to die. Hasnt
been advertised for something like 6 years and is still the busiest thing
on my server.

I think the MU* types of games are great learning ground. Everyone
considering any type of MMO* should run a MU* for awhile. The best MMO*'s
have had ex admins/programmers from MU*'s on their teams. You can really
tell the difference.

Of that list? Im mostly strategic. Some RPG.

Where do you find these things-I'm wary of a Google search
because of the difficulty of separating the wheat from the
chaff...

If you want to take a look at things like MUDs try mudconnector.com

Some warnings ahead of time....
A) they ARE addictive
B) you will not understand how it can possibly BE addictive
C) you will never be able to explain to anyone else WHY its adictive

On the other hand,
A) you will learn more about what is and isnt good in multiplayer games,
and WHY they are, than by other means due to lack of distractions
B) if you admin one (easy to do) you will learn more about admining a
multiplayer format, quicker, than by other means
C) if you get the source code and make improvments (also easy to get and
do) you will move quickly into MMORGP programming

Adding the pretty shell to a game later (graphics/sound) is a better
product if the core is made worthy first. Just My Humble Opinion
