I think there was a thread at some point in which folks tried to use the clothroom to simulate a chain, possibly a rope as well.  The main problem was that the clothified object tended to collapse in on itself during the simulation.  I believe a special (and rather unusual) geometry design was required to get chains to work even partially.

You could clothify a body part, but cloth body parts don't tend to handle well at weld zones, in my experience.  You'd probably want to try a clothroom rope with a prop, rather than a figure.

But I'm not altogether sure what you're really asking, I think....
