Physics is one thing, social dynamics is quite another, thank > you. Too big a can of worms. Interesting. I think that many MUSHes do fairly good job at modeling society. In fact, it tends to be their main strength. However, it's *very* hard to do without player cooperation and realistic power levels. (i.e. when one player is unkillable by 1,000,000 newbies, It doesn't make for social stratification).
