On 09:31 PM 9/25/98 -0500, I personally witnessed Vadim Tkachenko jumping
up to say:

What if casting a spell subtracts a certain number of spell points from
EVERYONE on the MUD? So like, if I cast the spell of "Armageddon", which
wastes everything else in the room, it costs five hundred spell points --
and the game runs out and grabs all (say) twenty people on the MUD and
takes 25 of their spell points. If someone doesn't have enough spell
points, my spell fails and no one loses anything.
Hmmmmm.
