Well, opposite example: You're gone fishing to the nearest swamp (let's say it IS a different world, in a sense). Clouds of mosquitos surround you, you slap them by hundreds (and they' obviously, die, if you're agile enough). Looks different, doesn't it? Once again, careful balancing is a cure... This one, for example, may be solved by either a different factor for the population of that WimpyWorld (mosquitos have a different size and so on, so you wouldn't get terribly advanced for wiping out the entire mosquito population of the given swamp) and/or different interaction mechanisms (they drink your blood in gallons, and you get back home with a terrible allergy to some swamp herb). > J C Lawrence -- Still alive and smile stays on, Vadim Tkachenko <vt#freehold,crocodile.org> -- UNIX _is_ user friendly, he's just very picky about who his friends are </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <UL><LI><STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A NAME="00110" HREF="msg00110.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></STRONG> <UL><LI><EM>From:</EM> J C Lawrence <claw#under,engr.sgi.com></LI></UL></LI> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00111.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Character development [was Re: ]</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00113.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] a fruitful exchange on classlessness in r.g.m.admin</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00110.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00015.html">Re: MUD Development Digest</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00112"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00112"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00023" HREF="msg00023.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></strong>, Travis Casey <a href="mailto:efindel#polaris,net">efindel#polaris,net</a>, Sun 05 Apr 1998, 02:30 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00077" HREF="msg00077.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Wed 08 Apr 1998, 22:43 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00087" HREF="msg00087.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></strong>, maddog <a href="mailto:maddog#best,com">maddog#best,com</a>, Thu 09 Apr 1998, 05:50 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00110" HREF="msg00110.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Fri 10 Apr 1998, 00:24 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00112" HREF="msg00112.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] GRUMPS</A></strong>, Vadim Tkachenko <a href="mailto:vt#freehold,crocodile.org">vt#freehold,crocodile.org</a>, Fri 10 Apr 1998, 01:37 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00015" HREF="msg00015.html">Re: MUD Development Digest</A></strong>, Dr. Cat <a href="mailto:cat#bga,com">cat#bga,com</a>, Sat 04 Apr 1998, 14:42 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00016" HREF="msg00016.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] Re: MUD Development Digest</A></strong>, Justin McKinnerney <a href="mailto:xymox#toon,org">xymox#toon,org</a>, Sat 04 Apr 1998, 17:18 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00037" HREF="msg00037.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Re: MUD Development Digest</A></strong>, Nathan F Yospe <a href="mailto:yospe#hawaii,edu">yospe#hawaii,edu</a>, Mon 06 Apr 1998, 06:21 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00039" HREF="msg00039.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] Re: MUD Development Digest</A></strong>, Justin McKinnerney <a href="mailto:xymox#toon,org">xymox#toon,org</a>, Mon 06 Apr 1998, 12:31 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
