What if you could have a variable go up in real time? This would be perfect for "race against the clock" storygames, and also add a degree of tension. 

No offense Malk, but that's a bad idea. It would be better to have the variable go up by one each page, because some people may not read that fast (Myself included).

I agree with Chris, the reading speed of each person greatly varies, and it would make a system like this extremely difficult to implement. Furthermore, I don't feel like a 'race against the clock' system is fitting for a CYOA type site, as the main emphasis here lies on the quality of the author's writing, not the amount of nifty effects he/she uses.
