Burning Wheel, a prelude to a game?

I finally got a chance to play a demo of Burning Wheel this weekend, and I’ve gotten over a bunch of my fears about running it. In order to get over the rest of my concerns, I want to run The Sword, a single scene demo scenario. (Also the one I played in for the record.

So, I want to try it this week. I’m do it in the evenings (EST 7-12). Drop me a line (wherever) if you’re interested with when would be best, and when would be right out. We’ll be playing over skype, and using http://www.catchyourhare.com/diceroller/ for dice. If things go well, I’d like to make a habit of this, but there’s no commitment to try.

For those of you who don’t know, Burning Wheel is a fantasy role-playing game. What makes it different (to me) from most others out there, is that since it focuses on what your character wants and believes, you end up with the sort of things happening in the game that mirror fiction better than most traditional RPGs. People new to role-playing games are welcome too, if you want to give it a try, I want to show you (this goes for any games I play).
