I have an idea for a game in this genre, called "everybody is mafia".
Everybody is in the mafia, but some people are infiltrators.
An infiltrator wins if specific mafia figures on his kill list are eliminated. They do not know who the other infiltrators are.
The mafia wins if all infiltrators are eliminated.

Equipment includes guns, bullet-proof vests, poisons and antidotes.

Ideally I'd like to try this game with 6 players.

If anybody likes the idea please add the game to the queue, or at least I think that's how this subforum works?

Normally what we do is discuss ideas in the ideas thread, and then when you think the idea is solid you ask to put it in the queue. This one looks promising, but you probably want to hash it out with folks a bit first to see if there are any issues they can think of.

Or do what the pros do and sign up for a slot now, then rush to figure it out at the last minute use the months of expected wait time to iron things out.

Horrible Cults has ended.

Maybe I shouldn't have tried to mix a cults game with a semi-bastard with experimental role designs.

...at least it lived up to it's name. And was surprisingly Town-sided.

Wait what?
I'm not ready!

I guess I could whip something up, but if hector13 or Tric have something ready to go, I will defer to them. I will start planning at any event.

Me? Run a game?

Why I never!

I think the last game I ran was 2 years ago and it was a small one.

I could do a small one until someone figures a bigger one out I guess.

It’ll have to be a quick one though since I’m lazy. I might steal remaster one of Tomasque’s games from Mafia Marathon. They were fun.

...oops, it was actually Secret Hitler by heydude6 that was up next.

But I will gladly take this distraction to procrastinate further develop an awesome game that totally isn't a refinement of one that I ran before

Speaking of that. I assume some of you saw this coming, but Remove Secret Hitler from the Queue.

Since the war has started, life has stopped giving me breaks. I am currently working 10 hour night shifts at a full-time summer job to pay off a shitty loan, and it drains me of any energy I would have to work on personal projects on the weekend. I am not happy with this arrangement, and I harbour much resentment towards the people who put me in this situation. So please don't think I fail my goals lightly.

Except in this situation. With everything on my plate, I never should have assumed I'd be able to run a mafia game on top of all of my other responsibilities that I was failing to meet. It was a spontaneous decision and the lack of thought really shows. Sorry for wasting everyone's time.

And for anyone who is asking, I refuse to put the mafia archive on hiatus! Failing to complete this thing would be a betrayal of my core values.

Personally these wacky games are too much for me. I think I prefer more traditional setups with open information.

Considering the importance of this suggestion, I propose that I reformat my game into the following:

I want to submit into the queue a semi-open setup called Haiku Mafia that requires at least 9 players hopefully.

I would be willing to defer to the next one on the list.
