I'm in the same boat, then.

Big H, a couple of years ago, there was a T2K PbP campaign by the name of "Stalemate War" over on the RPGNet forums. It was really more of a collaborative story telling excercise than a conventional Twilight 2000 game. It's been defunct for a year but you may want to check out the IC archives for ideas about how to run such an endevour. Players each had a main character, but folks could write for each other's PCs, within limits. It was more of a team created narrative than any other PbP or PBeM I've seen or been involved in. It was pretty fun and produced some pretty darn good writing/story.

Here's a link to the game portal. The IC thread archive is found under the "Operations" header.

Most of it reads like a novel. Some of it's really good. I think a couple of other RPGHost vets were contributers at one time or another- Chalkline and Badbru come to mind. Snakeyes was prepped to join when it went belly up. It's a shame the story never reached a point of closure.

There's also a set of guidelines for collaborative style games on there under "Civil-Military Operations". Could be helpful.

Anyway, I hope it's helpful.
