Wondering if anyone out there has heard of a mud based off the premise of the show 'Survivor Island'. Thanks.

Killing off your players doesn't seem like a workable idea to me

Would be easy to do, just open up a stock MUD and do the following modifications:

Players get assigned to one of two "teams" (can be good/evil, red/blue, whatever) when they create.

Each week/month/cycle, both teams are given the same task, which could be something like kill the most X mobs, raise the most gold, or whatever. You could easily implement code to keep track of who is ahead.

At the end of the week/month/cycle, the losing team has to vote out one of its members, or just have the lowest scoring member always be the one voted off. That player's character gets deleted, and he has to roll up a new one to keep playing.

Status in the game would just be who can last the longest without getting deleted.

That's how you could set the game up. Not sure how many people would want to play, tho.
