Shrug, no idea what their names are. I don't really care one way or another to be honest, and it's not a reflection on Simutronics one way or another. Lots of our ex-players play other games now I'm sure. Hell, the guy that put together Everquest's original 800 person volunteer force is now one of our full-time employees. Does that have any meaning aside from meaning that he now works for us? No.
I'm also not sure why you're equating quality with position on the rankings list. All the rankings list measures is how much unique traffic a MUD is sending to topmudsites. We're sending more than Dragonrealms or Gemstone III right now. Quality is subjective, and no doubt most of our players think Achaea is a far better game, and most of DR and Gemstone's players think those games are far better games.
