I never really participated in Asylum Night, because I was not in the guild/order/clan Asylum, but I knew Blackhand in real life and played a lot with Smeagol,
If I recall correctly, the point of it was to make a unit (usually redicuously overpowered) each representing an asylum member's skills in some way. It happened once or twice or three times, and there was much silly/weird fun for all. Not a very balanced choice but one of those 'lets do freaky things with Fear ooh look permanent craters' I always thought the best part was replacing the units on single player and going through with those on legendary or some such... When the asylum order sort of died out of playing actual myth, (I never remember anyone but smeagol blackhand, ares and milkman ever actually being online) it was attempted to be ressurected like two or three times but as far as I know it was never completed.
I blame a historic 'walls of muirthemne' solo game for the form of l33t speak known as 'Tro Spek' entering the Myth community. Yes its all your fault.
It is a tradition that any time it is brought up someone comes in and says they are working on it, or were working on it and it is almost done, but just needs a few tweaks in Fear. Then it is never discussed again for two years.
You can find a LOT of information if you search for asylum night throughout the forum. It comes up a lot.
