Re: Roomless World Size
Well generated descriptions aren't simply "generated random[ly] by the computer", either - they're assembled from sections of text that have been hand-written by humans. You didn't honestly think the computer invented the descriptions out of thin air, did you? :P
I responded because I couldn't see what benefit there was in a "hand-written vs generated" option, and was bemused when you suggested that "hand-written" somehow indicated quality.
Then fair enough, we all have personal tastes. Personally I'd be more keen on a flag for dynamic descriptions, so that I can filter out the muds that use static descriptions.
I already said in my first reply to you "I can see the value in having a click-box for muds that use a wilderness/overland map system (or perhaps even giving them a separate World Size list)."
I don't care about the option either way, I just couldn't see what purpose it served to differentiate hand-written descriptions from generated descriptions.
