This?

It was a group project, but not quite "ping-pong" like Kyle described.

Kyle has an interesting idea, imho.  It could be similar to my "Give me 
seven sentences" idea that I posted in p.o-t a few weeks ago.  In other 
words, one person posts a seed, and then others take it and add to it, with 
the possibility creating multiple branches.  In that way, no one is ever 
held to any sort of responsibility.  You can either add to it or not.  It 
certainly wouldn't be a contest, but the results may be interesting, and 
depending on who joins-in, it could be a learning experience for a lot of 
us.
