Maybe. Interesting thought for sure.

Not a bad twist. There'd probably have to be some rules, like "whole paragraphs only" (i.e. don't quote "the" then "village" then "are" then "idiots") and no italicising/bolding/underlining/etc allowed.

Whole paragraphs would be so fun. Even though knowing it, people may be careful in advance and plan how they post so it can be used more easily later on. Which might lead to some rather funny structure of posts.
I would be careful about any "messages" though... people coming back from the Dead has also been used before (although, there it was literally returning, for a Day, bringing info from the Dead, then "dying" again). I didn't particularly like it, it's again one of the things that smells like it isn't
phantomproof. My rule no. 1 - if something looks prone to "
phantom-ing" on first sight, I'm not using it (or I adjust it so it can't be easily exploited).
But I like the idea of Ghost, in essence. It would only require really thorough planning.
