RE: OFF TOPIC QUESTIONS SPOILING LIST

[Chris Kaiser <ckaiser@peregrine.com>]

An example of how the god thread could contribute to gaming...

this is like an excercise in reverse engineering for creating 
a rpg or mud... and dealing with dynamics.. I mean if your
gonna attempt to model life... why not start with the originator.. 
or at least the concept of an originator and how this being would
go about creating a universe for interaction... hmmm.. sounds like a
game to me..
