Just an aside, we have been describing at our web site and in
business plan for several years as what Skotos does as "multiplayer
text-dominant interactive fiction games". However, we have never
attempted to acronymize it.

I wouldn't say that this has 'caught on' from a marketing/branding
perspective, but it is proven to explain to non-mudders what it is
we do.
