Anyone notice that "medieval" and "deity" are two of the most
misspelled words in Mudding? I'm not trying to insult anyone,
but if you don't even know how to spell it, then I don't think
you know enough to request that your builders go within that
time period. The medieval period began in the 5th century and
ending in the 1500s.

My suggestion is primarily: either don't use a historical time
period or learn enough about your time period so that someone 
else who is knowledgable on the subject will want to play your
mud, too. It's very difficult to tell an educated person that
your mud is in the medieval era when you have Rom and when you
are using "Dark Ages" and medieval interchangably (different
time periods, and the "Dark Ages" is a pretty much abbondoned
term for historians, as it's inaccurate).
