Hail, rogues, and well met!

Hail, rogues, and well met!

I have wandered to these halls from distant Twitter, a land of fast and ephemeral voices. I seek adventure!

How do I get on a list for #SundayMorningSwords? I don't need to play this Sunday but I've been itching to try this game for quite a while now and I'd like to play soon.

Rogues!

Rogues!

I have a new player interested in being inducted into our arcane order tomorrow morning via the ritual of #SundayMorningSwords Are there two more would would lift sword or staff to trek with him? I would like a semi-strong commitment so I can advise this wastrel what his future holds.

I've played in the #SundayMorningSwords game for the last few weeks, and it has been a blast.

I've played in the #SundayMorningSwords game for the last few weeks, and it has been a blast. :D Really enjoying it!

Something I have noticed is that it seems fairly rare for the people to bring their Rogue's Tricks or Feats Heroic into play.  Based on my initial reading of the game before playing it I expected to see a lot of these, but in play there has been maybe one or two Feats Heroic per game, and probably one trick used in all of the three games I've played in.

I was wondering how this observation lines up with everyone else's?  Is this something that has more to do with the culture of#SundayMorningSwords, or playing the game online in general compared to playing it in person?

If one were dissecting the game to see how it worked; how necessary are these parts? Could you remove them and still play something sufficiently "Swords Without Masters"-y?
