Kron Ray and Angie Albatros create cyber-noir on the mean streets of Midian
Gorgeously squalid, colorfully decrepit, Midian City is one of the top twenty sites in NWN's True Community Search for Second Life's locales with a large and active membership free from camping and excessive freebies. Both a cyberpunk RPG and an interactive novel written by its cast of dedicated players, Onder Skall has a detailed review of Midian here. When I visited Midian yesterday, a grizzled bounty hunter with a 12 gauge on his back were near the entrance, deep in conversation with a slinky and dangerous ingenue by the soda machine. According to Tateru Nino, the city ranked 7th in the True Community chart compiles, for the week ending 10/28. Full top twenty after the break. And as always, if you know of a camper-free popular site that isn't mentioned here, contact Tateru Nino or me, to make sure it's included in future counts.
