What do you guys think about having a co-op story?

The rules are simple...

> you write a couple of paragraphs. no word limits but the shorter it is, the more likely the entirety will be read.
> you play off of other people before you for maximum communication
>you are allowed to set up future plot points in parenthesis at the bottom of the post
>only every other post is allowed to be plot developing, the other ones are character or setting developing. (this is to set the pace of the story.)

You're talking about running a Forum RPG here. Granted, what you've got right now is just the pure, most basic essence of it, but if you have any ideas, I'm *always* game. I used to moderate a couple of roleplaying forums so I have a great deal of experience with these, both as a Game Master, assisting role and plain participant. I actually intend to try starting up a few of these myself soon; not exactly sure which forum would be best to put them in though nor whether I could find much interest.
