On the topic of your syntax: Yes, every sever
starts looking the same, and grows apart.
Remember when PWs were first introduced? Every server used the default hearts, default baddies, default weapons, default bow...
Then Stefan gave us the power to change all that, and instantly every server had custom health bars, custom weapons, custom bows...some replaced the baddies, some eliminated them, some just used putcomp with interesting graphics to various effect....
Then the defaults disappeared, and those divergent servers continued. Some died, but weren't replaced. In a sense it's good that we don't have too many servers, but in another sense it's bad that nothing New's making it past development (and that was not an invitation to advertise how awesome your server's going to be as soon as it gets out of development, all of you reading this, we'll see if and when it makes it past development) - There's no New Gold Standard for The System. There's no "This is your basic movement and combat system, it works on GMaps, change it if you want". There's no "Here's everything you need to make your own version of Classic, have fun." There's no base, no default, no Graal that everything's a variation on.
Maybe that makes Graal more various, I think it just makes Graal rootless.
