How to Join? This game will be run on IRC. There are two ways to access it:
1.) Java Option Click on the IRC link at the top of the page (on the same bar where HOME and FORUM are listed) and you will be taken to MIBBIT.
If Java is not enabled on your computer, please download JAVA or enable java.
Press Ok and accept the name that it suggests for you. We are playing on the #celtricia channel. You will initially be taken to the #thecbg channel; so the first thing you need to do is type "/join #celtricia"; after that, you will be on the correct channel.

2.) If you do not have Java
Note: Option 1 is a lot easier to use.
Follow the steps in Nomadic's guide here.
Select Server: Otherworlders (irc.otherworlders.org)
