Although I suggested this before and the muds wern't interested at the time (5? or so years ago), I wonder if the time is ripe again to suggest taking this further and building a site around it. This is something I typically do commercially, with the big idea being that the site is a landing page for web queries - for for example "free rpg", "free mud" etc. It's perfectly doable but it'll take at least 20 or so muds cooperating to get any real results.
The big idea here is to have all the muds point a few pages towards this site, to have pages listing these muds but to make the display order random, so that no site gets any intended advantage. Where it floundered last time was the question of 'but we send more traffic so we expect to be featured more', which is a reasonable point but I really can't be doing with the hassle of counting votes etc.
How about I get a basic demo put up on the wot site, and if you guys think it's worth the effort then we can look at purchasing a toplevel domain for it etc.
