I'm not really quite sure about it yet, but I think my Vampire: The Masquerade PBeM that I've been running for the last couple of years is coming to an end. We're finally approaching the climax to the first story (yes, first -- it's been slow-going), and I think everyone has more-or-less lost their enthusiasm for the game.
Whether the game dies after the first story or not, though, I'm thinking of maybe getting another PBeM of some sort off the ground after Labour Day. Despite the sometimes slow pace of PBeMs, I really like the depth of character and story you can get from the interactions between the players and GMs. It also makes it easier to deal with a heavier rules system without bogging down the story too much.
I'm thinking something along the lines of Cyberpunk 2020 or Traveller or even Blue Planet would be fun to run in a PBeM format.
