In my brother's game he created a list we could reference and having that hard data in front of me I could chart out power groups, make connections and conjectures about people who were not onscreen during a particular game and really pierce the politics and big picture maneuverings that I would have missed from being focused just on the moment and NPCs in front of me. It allowed me to see the plot as well as the immediate action. I loved putting the dozens of pieces of the plot puzzle together, while I would have otherwise just been along for the ride, in command of the moment but not consciously dealing with the big picture.</blockquote>
