Ben, that's totally interesting, because it completely lines up with the "One Rule" system we often use for our so-called freeform games on IRC.
The One Rule, originally formulated by Char (stryck), is really more of a principle or guideline than a rule. I t runs, roughly:
"You should accept anything another player says about your character in /some/ fashion."
This principle directly facilitates single players making contributions to the fiction that directly effect other characters, and protects them to some degree from "no, no, no".
