        Excuse me? Less of the "merely", please...
        That paper attempts to get MUD designers (among others) to think
about player dynamics rather than going in blindly. Furthermore, it proffers
advice as to how to adjust these dynamics. You may disagree with any or all
of it, but it doesn't "merely" attempt to classify goals.
