Just to keep the record straight for whoever cares - I remember that conversation, and you must have misunderstood me (when asked I usually said "thats not me, thats my evil twin" or something). That NPC is named after my original crit "Frozboz" in Realm (a ment), along with three other of the original testers, all in the first guild in the game:

Specteros for Specter
Dyrnwynama for Dyrnwyn
Mangorama for Mangor

This was 1988ish. In the all-text frontend, to attack an NPC you'd generally type the action along with the first 3 letters of the name.. so "a fro" would attack Frozbozena - EXCEPT when "Frozboz" was there. Our paranoid guild then thought this was Brad's way of getting us to kill each other. Good times.

Cheers guys, hope all is well on this end.
