I still absolutely believe that text adventures are near-identical in any gameplay terms to graphic adventures as a genre. And that as I said text adventures just replace the pictures with descriptions, which aren't as descriptive clearly as an image in some terms but have their own plusses and definitely should not be laughed off as 'nothing like the images described in graphical adventures'... if there REALLY was no connection there, graphical adventures wouldn't have a 'look' option that gives you a text description of what you're looking at, would they? I wouldn't be needed, there's nothing in common between text and pictures...
And I still also think that if someone made an interactive CYOA (interactive is the key term here... a PDF doesn't cut it since that is not interactive...), it'd be a text adventure. The simplest one possible? Yes. But it would be one.
