                I meant within the same MUD though. The general game will favour real time,
                that is weekly logins and a certain amount of time spent each week. The
                special games will favour play time. In the classic MUD context the general
                game would involve concepts needed to participate, travel, protect oneself,
                etc. The special games would be stuff like lock picking, large puzzle quests
                etc. To maintain the goal of fairness in the general game, one would have to
                make sure that the rewards from the special games are not really tradable,
                and that they are most useful in other special game activities..?
                
                What we need, in order to make rational design choices, is more insight into
                how people actually approach MUDs, and how that relates to passage of time
                and weekly usage. I would love to see some statistics on how (or if)
                different time usage patterns correlates with activities. It would have to
                come from a system which aim at the general (clueless) public, in order to
                be representative... Hmm. Any undertakers?

                After a few more clock cycles I realized that. Although there was the
                possibility that you might have accidentally omitted the word "futile"...
