I am expecting to have #idlerpg back online on sunday at 8pm (that is Australian east coast time). If you hang out on irc.anoxs.net, then join #idlerpg and register a character. Due to the infinity crash, idlerpg has been reset, so everyone will be starting off at level 1.

My idlerpg has extra features not on other versions of #idlerpg such as multiple attack types, ganging up, and a shop. This is all done by idling, as are all aspects of #idlerpg.

I do actually have to rewrite these extra mods - because I wrote them directlly to infinity in the first place and never made a backup...ooops - but I am confident that I can have the code rewritten by sunday afternoon - so join then and begin an idlerpg adventure

Can you please describe what this channel/game is all about? I can not seem to figure it out with the information you have provided.

Thanks,

IdleRPG is just what it sounds like: an RPG in which the players idle. In addition to merely gaining levels, players can find items and battle other players. However, this is all done for you; you just idle on IRC. There are no set classes; you can name your character anything you like, and have its class be anything you like, as well.

#IdleRPG is starting up again in about 8 minutes!!!

Get in now to get yourself up the top of the ladder as soon as possible. Once it begins it will keep going....well in a year I will take a poll to see if it should be restarted

Although even if you start a month or four later - it is not too hard to catch up!

And to elaborate more for slashfoo, you join #idlerpg and you must idle.. and only idle. The longer you idle, the more you level up, and you find items equipment and stuff, and fight other people.. all that happens randomly as time goes by. There are (usually? always?) penalties for speaking in the channel, for parting, and for disconnecting, so the object is to idle forever without ever showing signs of life or death.

Actually I have added a non-idle element to the game: attack mode

You can select opponents to attack. You can attack 5 people each level.

so if you wanted to attack me you just type: /msg IdleRPG attack thanjee

If you win you level up faster, if not you get slowed down.

Haven't heard of such channel before, but erm.. it sounds interesting.

The only thing that annoys me is that you cannot actually speak in that channel!

I always thought idlerpg should have some reason to talk, so that you always have to decide whether you wanne idle and become stronger or talk and get something else...
Maybe by adding a trivia bot so that you can either try to answer OR idle... but i will stick with ideling for now =)
