I was looking more for the type of game where one player has the
ability to weave together the story, scenery and characters on the fly. I.e.
a real dungeon master, to whom you might even be able to suggest a possible
course of action and get rewarded for creativity, cunning or speed.
All this in a networked environment, of course...
