best talking to the ads really, From a players perspective its kinda free form, ok its very free form, there is loose storyline running. Most people are encouraged to bring their own stories to the board. people who want to get involved with that character can,those who don't don't. I'm sure someone will jump in to say I have it all wrong, but that seems to be how its been going so far. The only problem i have come across is character progression, e.g levelling up . but since most people seem to create their own progression then i suppose its down to the individual.
