 		Text Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll - GuyP Presentation
Tiny little bit of extra detail
It's really weird posting a new topic here.

It was so detailed that we started referring to it ourselves - because the players didn't know what was important and what wasn't, they wrote down everything, whereas we only wrote down what we planned on being significant. So when we needed one of our characters to naturally meet someone from a certain company, we were thrilled to consult his entry on the player wiki and discover he'd briefly dated someone there six months previously.
