Well, you may have seen it that way, Jazuela, but I don't think that is quite what the_logos had in mind. In fact I distinctly remember statements of his like:
"Yeah, this is going to take some time to work out in terms of what the arrangements would be. I totally understand that MUDs being run as hobbys are not likely to have owners willing to contribute a lot (or any) money. The trick here is that I really do want to show the outside gaming world that text MUDs generally can offer a lot of great things, but I don't want to do it enough to essentially pay a lot to promote other people's MUDs. "
This suggests something quite different to me than what you seem to picture. I don't see how the rest of the Mud Community, beyond the few Muds that contributed monetary to that site, would benefit from it at all. And I doubt that any of the ones that did contribute a bit with constructive input on the thread would have been mentioned on that site either. That's what I meant by 'exclusive' site.
But of course the entire question is moot now, since the project is dropped anyhow.
