In a little over a fortnight, I'm going to be overplaying an exhibition game for the Indie+ community. It'll be a recorded on-air hangout and one of the goals is to keep the game under two hours so as to tantalize viewers with busy schedules.

That's not going to be a problem. I regularly run full games of Swords at cons that take less than two hours and that's while I'm teaching the rules as I go. My personal record is a complete game in 45 minutes. The key is to make sure everyone's focused on hitting the Motifs as hard as they can and gunning for a tight, punchy tale.

But I want to get some practice in to work through some of the kinks of playing Swords online. So I'm running a game on Google Hangouts tonight at 7 PM EST with the goal of being done in less than two hours. I'll need three rogue players.

I intend to record this. If it's quick and punchy enough to suit my needs, I may gussy it up some and use it as a demo video.

Oh, and I want to play in the wasteland of a once great civilization where most folks now scurry and hide from the roaming giants and soaring dragons. A place where the rogues' affinity for danger is sorely needed and can be well-rewarded by plunder from the ruins of the old world. (Tale eidolon courtesy of Ed Heil) 

So, the first three folks to reply below that they want in will get in. If you miss out on this one, fret not. I'll be doing more in the next few weeks.
