http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17936

EDIT: no explanation

Basically this:

You send me 3 bands you want to play as, each with a "main performance song"

I put something like "Mafia PR, Mafia Weak PR, Mafia Goon, Mafia Goon, Mafia Goon, Strong Town PR, Protective town PR, Vt, VT" into random.org with players

I match up the players to their respective role, then use the band's songs (not the main one) to determine an "encore" song which represents your Power (ex: Green Day's "Know your enemy" was Cop power in a previous game, Muse's "Resistance" was doctor in a previous game)

Then, if you get lynched, I write up a dramatic death flavor with the lyrics to the song you chose for the main performance song.

Its fun, you get at least some control over the game. I'm just not for sure if I can generate enough interest to do it again or not, it looks like most of my usual band mafia players have left the site.

In case you're still interested in running this, you're willing to have a player in with only one game of experience under her belt and it won't start before the 1st of September, I'd love to play!

Yes, I know this was posted over a month ago, but hey, can't a girl love ideas?

Ah, never mind. Upon reading the previous game I realized that any Large games would be way over my head right now. However, if you ever intend to run this again somewhere next year (maybe half a year after this), I would absolutely love to play!

Key Party Mafia


Takes place at a motel in the middle of nowhere. A group of couples have gathered for a week of fun and games (orgies and partner swaps). Days take place in the lobby. Nights take place in rooms that people have drawn keys for.

Rooms with two people may night talk. Most likely ~half the people end up in the orgy room and are too "busy" to talk.


Haven't forgotten this idea from long, long ago. Not sure I'm looking to mod any time soon, but have been fiddling with a few ideas.

Anyone interested in running this idea want to flesh it out with me (or just develop it with me and we'll find a mod later).

I've been designing a setup based around Puppets and Puppet Masters - where most night actions are directed by a different player. Is this something that people would find interesting? =3

I wanted to run a season 4 game (I think), but I asked Juls first and she asked me not to and that we would work together on that season, and then sort of disappeared. Sigh.

Also this. And there has to be at least one doping scandal involved.

Forget doping scandal, badminton scandal is obviously the new chic thing.

Mafia in the Mansion/Haunted Mansion Mafia
(Which ones sounds catchier?)


Based on the popular Mishmash game, sans the HP mechanic.

Takes place in a mansion divided into four to six main zones (rooms), and a courtyard, where the days' lynches will take place. You can move around before the day's lynch (Day phase), and after the day's lynch (Evening phase), but you sleep where you were last positioned at in the evening for the night (Night phase). Planning on having variable roles that change in effectiveness depending on what room you are currently in.

Mid-sized game (15-21P), possible vanilla-less (That'd take more time to make though).

Interest?
Help?

Mafia in the Mansion is much catchier. I probably wouldn't play because I suck at mafia but I'd be interested to read along.

I don't have the energy to run a large theme right now, so Eragon Mafia is gonna get pushed back until this winter.

Instead, Bvoigt and I would like to co-mod
The Naked Gun Mafia
, a mostly normal 13-player Mini Theme based on the comedy movie. PM me or Bvoigt to prein.
I'm back, sort of. Not a lot of free time to play, but I'm planning to be modding some mish mash and stuff this winter.

Eragon Mafia, a 17-Player Large Theme, will be coming to the large theme queue soon(ish) if all goes well. If you're interested, PM me to pre-in.

Still have to get approval/run my mini-normal, but I want to gauge some interest for a future project.
Would there be interest in a theme game based on life in Menzoberranzan?

Has any Reservoir Dogs or Inglorious Bastards games been run yet? I'd love to do one of those. Large theme would probably be best for either.

Oh also, I'm going to remake Prisoner's Dilemma Mafia sometime in the near future, since the last one was destroyed in the hexadecimal fiasco.
