If we're looking for THEMES, I suggest maybe NEW WORLD (AMERICA) or maybe even LOST themed (Others instead of mafia). But I think we should definitely take a break after such a massive slaughter...

It's funny because Boc actually drew my name for Don again, put it back and then drew it a second time. He asked me if I wanted it but I turned it down. I wanted to play as town this time. But then Jeff went ahead and picked me anyway, so I guess I just should've chosen to be Don again

I GUESS I'M JUST DESTINED TO BE TOP SCUM

A bit of a break is a good idea. We don't just wanna play 8 in a row. They'll bore really quickly

Helios' sounds like it could be different/fun though. And mine is gonna have different twists and a different set up to it. So we'll see

I think mafia could really be interesting if more people join in and more people PARTICIPATE. Being mafia boosted my drive incredibly. It was fun to scheme and manipulate.

It'd be fun to be mafia, but on the flip side. The mystery of being town is pretty fun too. Being a roleless townie sort of sucks, but setting up shop with other "townies" to try to weed out the scum is fun on its own.

What I think we need too are more ambiguous roles and fewer hard roles.

example

instead of sheriffs giving specific roles, have investigators monitor activity.

so investigating Curtis, rather than seeing his role, I'd see that he had interacted with, say, Paul.

but if I investigated Paul that night instead, I'd see that he had interactions with both Curtis and Skate.

Having a few of these roles would liven up the game more than having a single sheriff, because it gives a more widespread information gain while also brewing more mystery and the requirement for an alibi in what you're doing, especially if you interact with somebody who gets killed that night.

That, and there would be less generic townies who don't get to have as much fun with the game due to not having a purpose other than to vote and act as fodder for the more important people. Thats one of the biggest flaws in the game that leads to inactivity for some people.

However, too many roles can imbalance the game since there are many more town than there are mafia. However thats why the roles would be less powerful and more situational. Giving partial information also makes it further possible to play people and set other people up.
