IDIOT'S GUIDE TO FED2
HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE
SOCIALISING WITH YOUR FRIENDS
Fed is a social game and there are many commands to let you interact with other players. You can kiss, hug, cuddle, snog, tickle, and grope players - 'TICKLE NEWBOD' does just that. The game adds a qualifier at random, just to liven things up a bit.
Using the magic of modern technology, you can also hug and kiss people remotely - the kiss is sent via your communicator.
You can also smile, either generally, or at someone special. 'SMILE' on its own just flashes a smile at whoever happens to be in the room, whereas 'SMILE playername' directs the full intensity of your grin at your chosen person. Like kisses, smiles can also be sent remotely.
However, as in real life, it is bad manners to grope a stranger so these commands should be used sparingly. Kissing someone without their permission is not going to make you any friends; quite to the contrary in fact!
Relating to other people in Fed can be as simple or as complex as you like, using the more powerful Act command. 'ACT giggles foolishly' will result in the message 'Newbod giggles foolishly' for all the other players in the same room as you. This allows players to role-play very detailed scenes. While hanging around in Chez Diesel (SC of the SS) you might see such behavior as this:
Hazed taps loudly on her empty glass hoping that someone will take the hint.
Dork takes the hint and pours some water into Hazed's glass.
Hazed spits in disgust and biffs Dork around the ears.
A variation on this command is Acts. This works in the same way but puts an apostrophe-S on the end of your name. Typing 'ACTS heart beats faster due to the excitement of his proximity to the demi-goddess Hazed' will result in the message 'Newbod's heart beats faster due to the excitement of his proximity to the demi-goddess Hazed.'
Let the thespian inside you run riot!
The 'MOOD' command lets you add a short description to the otherwise boring messages that say you have just entered, left or are simply loitering in a room. For example, if you type 'MOOD Looking confused' then people will see you as "Looking confused Newbod is here". The mood can be up to 95 characters long.
You can check out somebody else's mood with 'GLANCE playername' or gauge the mood of the whole room with 'GLANCE ALL'.
The mood is saved until the game is reset, at which point you are reset to a bland, moodless state. So whether you're in the mood for dancing, in the mood for love, or just in the mood, you need to retype your mood each day.
'CLEAR MOOD' returns you to a moodless state. Typing 'MOOD' on its own reminds you what kind of mood you are in, if any. If you have to use this too often, we suggest you try 'MOOD A forgetful'!
