Story Games

In September of last year, I wrote an entry on solo adventure games. Since that time, I've been playing several solo-adventure games, largely in three categories: single-page pick-up games, gamebooks, and a game I'm playing using the Mythic Game Master Emulator.

Wow, how this hobby has really gotten its act together )

Actually, I have a friend and RPG buddy who is seriously into DIY/open source/free culture/anarchist/collaborative, though I don't know enough to know if he's tried the same stuff you're describing. Have you met kushiel26? I have quite honestly lost track of the friends of mine who know each other, and often they surprise me with connections I didn't know about anyway :).

With a group of people who are properly serious about making a good game, I would love to try a GM-less format. The problem I have seen is that players really have to go into this expecting to be self-guided. Whether it works or not has a lot to do with group dynamics.

I have not met kusheil26, save for seeing them in passing on other people's livejournals.

I will introduce myself today, thank you!
