I agree with Tim on this one. One solution that seems
to work is become a storyteller, and therefore PC's who
don't "post" actions get whatever the GM decides. Of
course, you have to find players who are willing to give
up a little direct control...
Here's an even bigger PBEM problem, IMHO. Players want
to post each turn, they just post meaningless stuff (as far
as the plot line is concerned). I was in a Star Trek game
once for several months, and the ship never made it out
of the starbase!
