I've been reading through the online game threads on the welcome to the shadows board, and I can't quite understand how they work. I've played online games before, but only using chat programs, not forums, and always with complete character sheets. How do those forum games get started? Does the GM PM people to invite them in, or just start the thread with a cue like "The Johnson waited for the runners to arrive" and people jump in? And since I don't see any skill levels or dice rolls in some of them, how are the mechanics worked out? Does the GM just make up a more or less expected average result for every action?
