Hey John,

Oh, OK, got where your coming from now--good point.

* play is about creating Setting. Every player (GM/non-GM) is responsible for that creation.

Without having yet read your pdf, let me just mention the first thing that occurs to me: that multiple, independently-operating parties (and games) might create Setting for each other to (perhaps via the assistance of the internet) wander into.  Which could be tons of fun for those players and GMs who share our inclination for making stuff up and sharing it with others.

David,
yep, I thought it would be cool to have a website/webring where groups could put their "World Sagas" for everyone to checkout & comment & stuff. Kind of provide a "World Sheet" kind of template, just like character sheets, that comes along with the game. Basically, a writeup of their group's Histories/Hero Chronicles/settings etc.

Like an Open-Source model for settings? although somewhat different, you wouldn't be actually playing *in* someone else's setting, just taking ideas & maybe using it for the Jump-Off point. Hey, be interesting to see different evolutions of the same Jump-Off though, wouldn't it?

Still a long ways down the track though, & pending folks are interested enough.

hmm, great minds & all that ;D
