@Vincent: thanks! Your reply confirm me about something I wrote right in the introduction to the GcG "under the hood" subforum: All you need to know about Forge Theory (attn: It's in Italian)
(Just checked before posting: google translate make a mess on that page, so I will try to summarize it: "you don't need theory to play the games, but you will need to play the games if you want to understand forge theory").
It's funny that the only piece of theory needed to be able to play is still "System matters..." ("...so play the game as written without golden-ruling it every time, dumbass").
But this lead again to the problem I talked about in comment #19: get people to talk about their games with each other, honestly reflect about what went wrong and what worked very well, without returning to the old "Self-appointed 'Good GMs' strutting around" parade of a lot of RPG forums and communities...
@Christoph: Sorry, I misunderstood what you were asking about.
