John, I've never objected to people reviewing muds - and I agree that it's nice to give attention to those who aren't at the top of the list. All I've been saying is that there's no need to infer that those muds are "losers" just because they're not at the top of some vague popularity list. If you want to review them, then do so on their own merits, not out of pity - because any self-respecting mud shouldn't need to rely on sympathy to make itself stand out.

So in short, while I'm all for something like "hidden gems of the mud community" which lists various less-known muds and provides a clear review summarising what they have to offer, I find little benefit in a "loser of the day" award which doesn't even tell you why the mud is worth checking out.

Of course, for those people who's muds really don't have anything special to offer, I can certainly see why they're happy to be mentioned at all.
