Text Games 

Related to the epic fantasy post... I've been looking for info on the Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time books. I found this: a WoT MUD. And since I needed a low bandwidth game I could play when my bandwidth is taken, I tried playing. Well, I got reminded why I never liked text-based adventure games. It's all well and nice, and I appreciate the realism of actually being lost in the middle of nowhere without a useful map, but a list of all the commands (and there are way too many) on a web page somewhere would've been nice... Because this in-game help system where you have to type 'help everysinglecarrotforsakenwordfromthelist', and then have everything, including the list, scroll out of sight because an NPC sneezed (or because PCs decided to have a long conversation which is totally unrelated to you), simply doesn't work. I'm not giving up yet, though...

And greetings to the Latvian person who's been visiting!
