The Adventurers Club Ltd., or ACL, was an
organisation for players of Adventure games. Its owner was What resulted was a series of 14 articles (I think - I may be missing some from early in the series, but probably am not). Some of these are quite deep considering that the target audience was people who were interested in single-user Adventures who didn't necessarily have any yearning whatsoever to know things about multi-user Adventures. Henry was happy, though, so I didn't alter anything (although re-reading some of what I wrote, perhaps I should have!). Eventually, the Member's Dossier (or MD as the articles refer to it) was replaced by a ring-binder format file which was added to incrementally each issue. This worked surprisingly well, and Henry began to reprint old articles for inclusion, as well as continuing to publish new ones. However, shortly afterwards he sold the ACL, and the new owners were strangely silent as to whether they wanted me to continue with my column...
Pretty well everything written over the course of the two years my column
lasted is still relevant to MUDs today. The ACL itself closed
in 1991, however, Adventure games having finally died commercial death.
