Oh, another tough tough one. My initial reaction is to hit the NGD button. However, though the DPs involved many suggestions from the players, they were still the same DPs all the way through..

Eve has had some good ones I must say, though perhaps they were more 'good' from a 'what happened' point of view.

Ingro's had some interesting options, but it isn't as fresh in my mind and I must admit I only followed the story intermitently.

BoT has improved DP wise lately, though the questions initially had possibility they were a little repetitive, due to the nature of the beast.

At the end of the day I guess NGD sparked the most discussion, and hence the most interactivity. Therefore, NGD gets my vote, again.

Yes, I went with No Good Deed as well, mainly for the variety in ideas it sparked, and becuse of the huge effect each one had on the story, taking it in all different trends.
