Basically, it's fun.  It's a game outside of the game.  After you finish
the game, try and hack it or build a utility for it.  And yes, it takes
a person with too much free time to do this.  So the people who do this
tend to be slacker/hacker types in high school who can breeze by their
classes.

(I still find the civilization map editor my roommate and I wrote in
1990 circulating on local BBS's.)
