Actually, the goal is to make an rpg that plays out in about an hour. I've been inspired by two things; Ben Lehman's Hot Guys Making Out (http://www.tao-games.com/?p=36) which gets played every time at my friends' rpg party nights, if only because it plays in an hour, and, a month ago I ran a simplified Burning Wheel game that told the downfall of a kingdom during the Japanese Warring States in a single hour.
