Just came back to mention that your description of your game's evolution out of Ars Magica 2nd, and out of GURPS, into an unspoken collaborative game more or less parallels the movement of Sol Invictus away from the rules detritus of Exalted and into a more or less "covertly" negotiated freeform framework. The lengthy non-acknowledgement of the fact that the game was, in fact, collaborative; the ostensible GM authority but practical delegation of domains to the players; the existence of collaboration outside of the game; these are all things that are specifically present in SI.
