As of May 10th JediMUD has a new area submission policy. The policy is quite simple and can be summarized in two
parts:


Area Writing Application for JediMUD

Real-life name:

E-mail address:

Character on the mud (please limit this to one, to lessen the confusion):

Is this an original zone or a revision of an existing zone? If a revision, is the area public?

Write a brief (100 word) description of your zone, including the theme/time period and/or setting.

How many rooms do you expect to use?

Would you define your zone as low (1-10) mid (11-15) high (16-25) or very high

Please describe five of your major mobs, five items (including stats), and send ten sample rooms.

If your concept is approved and registered, what is your estimated completion date?
