When I read cratylus' idea what sprung to my mind was a MUD where you could alter the physical laws of your own domain and not only the looks of it. Something along the lines of having different spell/skill sets or spell/skill power or effectiveness in different regions of the MUD's universe, that inhabitants of the area can get together to change.

I was thinking it would be neat for a space-travel-type of MUD where you start everybody at certain planet and people can conquer other worlds. Each world would have its generic creatures, rooms, etc and some parameters, then according to those parameters, colonizers would be able to adjust/name skill/spell sets, and adjust somehow the laws of physics that govern that specific planet.

Anyway, I thought it would be neat, but then I realized how huge an effort it would be from the point of view of being balanced AND flexible enough so that it is more than having a couple of options per slot.
