hmpfNo, seriously. Deeply fascinated. I've just stumbled across these:
http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/
http://scpfoundation.org/
http://theholders.org/ (not as cool as SCP, IMO, but still somewhat similar in principle)
I'm not even sure what to call this... phenomenon. It's not quite an alternative reality game; it's not quite traditional storytelling; it *is* collective world building on a massive scale.
As I said: I'm fascinated. I'm always delighted to discover all the mindboggling new forms of creativity that constantly seem to develop on the internet... Seriously, this kind of stuff, silly as it may seem, is one of the main reasons why I'd really like to see 'civilisation' continue in a somewhat similar form as it exists... (Even though I suspect that's not possible.)
