Hi Stefan!

Back in the days of Circus Maximus a game was set up called "Unnatural Selection". I don't remember the exact details but we could select a race and then modify it from a menu of two race "exploits" (say, pillage and super refit) - two attributes (maybe 150% mining and planet attack immunity) and I think you could build your shiplist too, with certain restrictions. We also had a limit of "credits" which we could spend on additional race/ship features. We got a link to a series of pages where we were guided through the parameters and made our choices. Some selections were mutually exclusive (I think 150% mining and 200% taxes, for example).

It was all a long time ago - I've looked through the CM pages on the Wayback archive and can't find the game.

Obviously, it was all done in Phost by Bitmask, if you remember him. I've mostly played Thost since I started so I'm just getting my feet wet here in Phost, therefore I'm not asking for this "right now" but if it's possible and not too big a request, would this be something you'd be interesting in setting up, and would anyone be interested?

UPDATE - some links on BM's site. Thanks ][avok for the help!
