Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I am wondering if any of you have experience w/playing the game on a tablet. I am leaving the country for a week and a half and was considering purchasing a Kindle Fire HD for reading/movies and was wondering how it would do as a substitute to my PC to get my SK fix in. Again, my computer knowledge is scarce at best... can mud clients be loaded on to such a device? -G |

There is no tablet experience that can match a laptop/desktop for playing a MUD. However, I have used the Android app called Blowtorch for light-duty use of connecting to the MUD while out and about. It would be best used to explore. RP would be possible depending on how good you are with a touch-screen keypad. But you will have to be satisfied with dying against all but the most inept PKers. BTW, since you brought up your prospective tablet of choice, I will have to take this opportunity to plug my employer's tablet instead - the NOOK HD. Barnes & Noble, who is the company behind NOOK, is an inadvertent sponsor of SK due to my paycheck from them covering 95% of the expenses of the game. By supporting B&N instead of it's arch-nemesis Amazon, you would be helping to support SK. |

Thanks for fast reply! I'm not heavy into the PK or whatnot at this point anyway. The exploring thing may end up suiting me fine. I'll definitely give the NOOK a look as well. Will probably go to the dreaded realm of Best Buy as I have some Xmas gift cards to burn. I'll do a comparison then. -G |
