[Caliban:]

:This would probably be an interesting (and harrowing) experiment. A
:corollary might be, imagine if you let the first hundred people to log on
:to your Diku have level 55, or gave the first hundred people to log onto
:your TinyMUSH a wizbit. Basically, the people who join the MUD first get to
:define the MUD's shape and direction. 

I think that's a good idea, even outside of the detailed and controlled
worlds. New MUDs often have problems getting that initial set of players -
that kind of incentive is one way to try it. If your system is fool-proof
enough (hah!), why not let it be wide open? You never know what you'll
end up with!
