Happened a few hours ago. Anyone in that area
Was watching Brigadoon this evening Does, and I was wondering: Does anyone know how big the area of Brigadoon supposed to be? Fiona has to "go to town" and she dances with Tommy "up on the hill" and Harry tries to run past the border to break the spell. I know it was a play, but I was just wondering. I believe the original story was based on a Scottish legend. Thanks !
But it's been just two weeks, and the things outside and above the town look more demonic every day, and the mist wafting in definitely isn't air.
Looking for words with similar meaning to brigadoon: "a place that is idyllic, unaffected by time, or remote from reality".
Continuing to try to "fix" the issues with some of the things I've received in trade.
Bright Star - Broadway - June 25, 2016 (SunsetBlvd79's video) - This should be VOB with smalls - I have 2 MP4 files with a total size of 803MB
Beautiful: The Carole King Musical - Broadway - June 24, 2018 (NYCG8R's master) - This should be VOB with smalls and I have a single MP4 (SD) file of under 500MB
Brigadoon - New York City Opera - November 13, 1996 (Opening Night) - Apparently the person who sent me this didn't actually have it and sent me a different version of the show. They checked and they don't have it either. I've removed it from my list, but am definitely looking for it if anyone can help.
Thanks so much!!
โWeโll reach the coordinates you gave me by nightfall,โ Moira said in her thick Glaswegian brogue. Her ever-moving eyes roved over the granite, heather and larch of the highlands, โYou said youโd tell me what we were going tae find when we got close.โ
Professor Brian Wicklow hesitated. โYouโll think Iโm quite insane. Thatโs fine.โ
Moira nodded in agreement. โMadmen use the same money as sane men. Makes nae difference tae me.โ
โVery well. What do you know about Pox?โ
His native guide's eyes stopped their ceaseless mvoement for just a moment, to level a disdainful look at him. โI've heard of it, once or twiceโ
โFair enough, but do you know where it came from?โ
โCentral Asia. Loony religious zealots stole it from the Chinese government after it collapsed and decided tae settle a border dispute with some light genocide that got a bit out of hand.โ
โAnd where did the Chinese get it?โ
โThey didna' get if from anywhere, they made it in a lab.โ
โFrom a disease that already existedโsmallpox.โ
โSure.โ
โOnly, smallpox didnโt exist for quite some timeโnot in a location the Chinese could access, anyway. Like our modern Pox, it was not zoonotic, and had been eradicated from the human population. There was some held under lock and key in the United States, that part now called The Confederacy, and there was some in Russia, but none in China, and certainly none in Scotland.โ
There was a heavy pause. โWhat does Scotland have tae do wiโ anything?โ
โThe 2047 smallpox outbreak. A historical footnote far overshadowed by its aftermath, these days, but quite odd in its time. A disease long-dead that emerged as if from thin airโnot from some isolated community in darkest Siberia or island in the Indian Ocean, but in rural Scotland nearly a century after it was eradicated off the face of the earth.โ
Moira turned on him. โRural Scotland. Are you telling me weโre heading toward some super-disease?โ
Brian shook his head. โIt may have been โsuperโ enough in its time, but itโs a kitten by todayโs standards. Some people survived smallpox, and werenโt even shambling disease vectors thereafterโunlike the Pox we have these days.โ
Moira scratched absently at her shaved head, shifting her gas-gun from one shoulder to the other. โCanโt say I get it. A disease thatโs slightly less apocalyptic in scope seems like a piss-poor prize tae be chasinโ after.โ
Brian considered this. โWhat is the biggest threat any city faces in the modern world?โ he asked
โShamblers,โ Moi

โSing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say, could that lass be I?
Merry of soul she sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skyeโฆโ
Moira opened her eyes a crackโnot enough to be perceptible to anyone watching her, but enough to see a woman standing in the slanted light from a window, grinding something in a mortar.
โYouโre noโ from around here,โ Moira croaked.
The woman looked up sharply. โYouโre awake!โ
She had an old-fashioned English accent, 20th or 21st century, if Moira had to guess.
โThat song,โ Moira said, โThose lyrics are from the 1800s. Late 1800s, I think.โ
The woman came over and lifted Moiraโs wrist, taking her pulse. โYouโre a good deal sharper than the knife that fellow put in your shoulder, moreโs the pity,โ the woman said. โIf it had been a good clean cut, I couldโve saved you whatโs going to be quite a nasty scar.โ
Moira smirked. โMy husband likes scars,โ she said, โGets him realโโ
She suddenly sat bolt upright, staring at the window. โWhaโ time is it?โ
The woman stepped back hurriedly. โAbout three in the afternoon.โ
โI have tae get oot of here,โ Moira said, swinging her legs off the pallet sheโd been lying on. A hot, stabbing pain shot up from her thigh, and she gasped, remembering the gunshot.
โI can appreciate the sentiment,โ the other woman said, โbut youโre in no condition to be going anywhere right now.โ
Moira glared at her. โTwo years ago I was on a scouting party in the ruins of Edinburgh,โ she said, โMy nineteenth birthday. Got ambushed by the biggest tiger Iโve ever seen. Put a fleschette intae him, but before the neurotoxin could take effect, he chomped doon on my other leg there.โ She gestured helpfully to her left shin, in case this woman was fuzzy on the locations of appendages. โCracked my tibia wiโ one big tooth anโ fully severed the calf muscle. I crawled three kilometers back to the rendezvous point wiโ a tourniquet keepinโ My blood inside.โ She stood up. โAnโ I was four months pregnant. Iโll make it through this, too.โ
The womanโs eyebrows arched. โYou got ambushed by a tigerโฆin the ruins of Edinburgh?โ
Moira nodded and grabbed a broom from the wall, testing its efficacy as a makeshift crutch.
โWhyโฆwhy was there a tiger in Edinburg, and why is it in ruins? Another Blitzkrieg?โ
Moira limped back and forth a few paces, then

Thanks iin advance.
I used to play this game all throughout middle school and early years of high school. Was wondering if there are any former players on this subreddit?
Anyone know if there's a way to play the MUD now or get access to the source code?

I am โ as gamers often do โ bouncing different ideas around in my head. One such idea is how to drop an ancient Egyptian town into the Deadlands.
There are urban legends, or modern folklore, about a lost Egyptian city in North America, with some stories having the town underground in the Grand Canyon, and other stories placing it in coastal California.
A long standing, and still existing, Egyptian city in either place would create profound changes to the setting. My way around this is to say the Egyptian town has a Brigadoon like quality.
Brigadoon is the name of a Broadway musical (and later a movie) about a magical Scottish village unstuck in time. The town appears in the โreal worldโ for one day every 100 years, while as far as the village is concerned only a day has passed. This allowed the Broadway musical producers to go wild with stylized Scottish costume and the like, even if they got the Scottish tendency to burst into song and dance correctly.
So Iโm thinking something happened 3000 or so years ago and it probably involved Set and magic and shenanigans. This resulted in an entire Egyptian town getting dislodged in space and time. Some of the priest-wizards did they best they could in trying to bring the town back to the Earth, but in ended up near the Grand Canyon in a kind disappearing and reappearing pocket dimension. Once every 25 years (or once in a generation) it appears in the setting of the Deadlands, but only for a day. Any of the townspeople who attempt to leave die (aging thousands of years in minutes). People from the outside may enter โ more on that in a moment โ but if they stay overnight, find they have missed a quarter century.
The priest wizards ended up turning into mummies, and rest in their tombs unless disturbed. They also placed wards on entrances to the town, to prevent invasion. It was the best they could do as the time.
But the return of magic, and the general actions of the Reckoners โ even if they are not concerned with this village in particular โ has made the magic unstable. The next time the town appears it will probably be a few years early, and might well become stuck in the real world.
Anyway, thatโs how Egyptian mummies, monsters and magicians (and other such things) may appear in the Deadlands.
From what weโve been given so far, Eroda seems similar to the village of Brigadoon.
From Wikipedia (with edits): Brigadoon is a 1954 musical film based on the Broadway musical of the same name. Two Americans are on a hunting trip in Scotland and become lost in the woodlands. They happen upon Brigadoon, a miraculously blessed village that rises out of the mists every hundred years for only a day: this was done so that the village would never be changed or destroyed by the outside world. If any villager ever leaves Brigadoon, the spell will be broken and the village will vanish forever.
Hello! I can share my trading list if needed and I'm willing to buy as well. Thank you so much!
This was the only program that could fit me from the ADI and they seem good but I was wondering if anyone had any opinions about this program?
Our musical in March is brigadoon, I was just wondering what the tech/prop side of the show was like.
For those who don't know, Brigadoon is a fictional town that appears once every hundred years then disappears after a week. Has anyone had any ideas for how to use this or a similar concept in a campaign, either as the setting or as a plot element? My current ideas are either
A. Lich hides phylactery in Brigadoon, time limit to find it
B. Set in Brigadoon, get to see long term consequences of your actions over the centuries
It has Brent Barrett, Rebecca Luker and Judy Kaye in the principal cast.
Thanks in advance.
