/addworld -T'tiny' cajun krynn.solace.mh.se 7373 
(from my tf file, and character name deleted :) ).
It still works, I still play it and I know for a fact that you /can/
in fact get a power character withing a week. Note, though, that I
specifically had pedestrian stats in mind when I recommended it. 

Remember, jeffk just wanted a peek. :)

Well, I wouldn't go as far as to say that. But it'd be nice to have
seriously gamemastered MUSH with relatively easy admittance.
Or for that matter any tiny-infestable server (a MOO, Cold, MUCK, etc).
