Vincent,
to feed your and Settembrinis perception of narrativistic gamers from the german rpg usenet group, see?? DRASTIC - it's in english and by someone much more close to the'closely knit usenet' core Settembrini implies than most of us. In?? 'Us' being Martin and I, two people out of twenty. Our voices were accordingly counterweighted by Settembrini, Tim and others, I am sure. I had to think of DRASTIC when you told about the Ars Magica group.
The 'fact' part of Spione is also a nice read (at least the first 80 pages, which I read so far), even if you're not into spy/guy games. I'd like to know aboout subtle, deft, and beautiful as well. I had the impression it was random, flat, and structureless - but then I was in the three player group that started with three cards for two spies.
