Glory is a statistic that measures the success of any given character in a game of Mush. It is given to the character for performing various feats, either directly after the deed or at the end of the game.

The point of Glory Points is to encourage role activities of the players. Thanks to the form of individual objectives for which players get points, they are motivated to play in-character and behave in accordance with their character's background. The game also provides the Ladder divided by and Super Nova awards, where players can compete for 'high scores' and recognition in the community.

At the end of each game, a summary page is created called The End, where players are listed in order of Glory (Mush and Human together), in the case of a tie, the summary page is determined in the following order: Glory, Date of Death, Character Rank.

Note: Some characters have a much easier time getting Glory than others, though, depending on their objectives and the situation. Also, actions which give one person Glory (e.g. solving the MAD Kube) are not always in the interest of the ship, and vice versa. So in its current state, the Glory score is more of a means of comparing people's success at fulfilling a given character's objectives rather than how vital they really were to the success of the mission.

Glory Points are divided into two categories: Human Glory and Mush Glory.

Human Glory
