 Definitions for mudhead: Jargon File (4.3.1, 29 Jun 2001)
:
mudhead n. Commonly used to refer to a MUD player who eats, sleeps,
and breathes MUD. Mudheads have been known to fail their degrees, drop
out, etc., with the consolation, however, that they made wizard level.
When encountered in person, on a MUD, or in a chat system, all a mudhead
will talk about is three topics: the tactic, character, or wizard that
is supposedly always unfairly stopping him/her from becoming a wizard or
beating a favorite MUD; why the specific game he/she has experience with
is so much better than any other; and the MUD he or she is writing or
going to write because his/her design ideas are so much better than in
any existing MUD. See also wannabee.
To the anthropologically literate, this term may recall the Zuni/Hopi
legend of the mudheads or `koyemshi', mythical half-formed children of
an unnatural union. Figures representing them act as clowns in Zuni
sacred ceremonies. Others may recall the `High School Madness' sequence
from the Firesign Theatre album "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the
Pliers", in which there is a character named "Mudhead".
