Thanks Javelin!

The kids are still excited about text-based games and the lesson was a great success. It wasn't perfect, though! I'll be writing a final blog entry with lessons learned, and I'm looking forward to teaching this class next year.

It sounds like you have a group with a natural leader (I want to build a MUD! // Yeah, and we want to help!!).
