Post Restrictions: Not every game should or need to have them.
Post Restrictions shouldn't be too obvious.
It's just something I've added for some flavor - which I've mostly given to townies rather than too important roles.
Post restrictions in combination with the write-ups can cause some problems for players. Remember forcing people to play as their characters too much can cause problems for them later on. I did like Lodi's where nobody was meant to keep playing as their roles too much. We'll have to see how it works out in Music Mafia, as I'm seeing that there are a lot of recognizable claims already.

Bumping this back to page one with two ideas:
1) LOST Mafia
2) That Guy With The Glasses Mafia
Even though I wouldn't be ready with the second for a while, the first one could be really intriguing, whether I ran it or someone else did.

I don't know anything about Lost so that would be of little interest to me if that topic was chosen.

Well there seems to be a slow down in the current (Music Mafia) game. How I'm going to do this now is that there can be 1 "large game" and one "smaller sized" game going on at the same time. This way if one game stalls there can still be another one to participate in. If your game is ready for sign ups, let me know the next small game I think is Big Bad Brad's Garfield Theme and one of mine, unless Gus Richlen or Stinger4Chris or BigBadBrad want to run one first (and be my guest!  ) are completely ready to host their games/have everything ready. |

I can't run one til I get the 'net back at home, so someone else can go ahead.

Think I'm gonna sit True Blood Mafia out because
A. I know next to nothing about the show and
B. I think the time between TB Mafia and WWE Mafia II will allow for me to get things done in Fan TE 2.

Side Note: You don't need to know about the source material to play or do a good job at the game.
No one here knew what "Hunger Games" was when I first introduced that theme back before it got popular (series wasn't even finished, movie wasn't even being produced yet), for example. It's just a mafia game with themes. People still had fun. Also, I might actually do WWE 2 instead, if I am next. Which I don't think so. I'd prefer for Gus Richlen, Brad, Stinger or anyone else to run one first. Spread the love.

My concern is, if we have to act like our character if I sign up for TB Mafia, I'd have no idea what to say.
PS. Based on Raw last night, you are actually Hornswoggle.

Well, let's say your Hunico. You don't have to full out cut one of his promos and mention the lowerider bike or Camacho, you can just add a few Mexican American phrases:
"This stuff is crazy, vato."
"What's up with them essa?"
"We'll get the mafia, holmes."
Or Brodus Clay. He doesn't really speak that much, so you could go the obvious route:
"So and so's dead? Somebody call my momma!"
Or you could throw in some hints here and there:
"Is it weird that I feel more like dancing then morning?"
"Ladies and gentleman, we have a problem."
"LODI"S ON A ROLL!"
And so forth.

And that is another reason that post restrictions will be discussed once music mafia is over. Knowing the subject should be less needed than the previous two games. I have a long writeup on this, but realized it could jeapordize the current mafia game, so I am waiting to address it til Music Mafia is over. |

I have a long writeup on this, but realized it could jeapordize the current mafia game, so I am waiting to address it til Music Mafia is over. Yeah, basically if I do give post restrictions, I'd be telling you exactly what to put and it won't be super obvious. Unlike the Music mafia or TV Mafia, you guys don't need to know or how to act like your characters. I won't ever force that kind of thing. Restrictions I give won't be blatantly in your face, easy to guess obvious. My post restrictions in WWE mafia were very, very small. Such as a  or girly emoticons for example. The difference/problem is that EVERYONE in this forum knew the source material, being WWE. Thus, even when they didn't have post restrictions they still acted as their characters (I didn't tell anyone to act like their characters) With an unfamiliar source, the tiny post restrictions would definitely, most likely not be very obvious at all have any huge effect on the game as the ones you'd see in Music Mafia, for example. === Also: Hornswoggle is an imposter.  |

Alright, if Gus Richlen is ready I think he can start sign ups, due to the slowdown.
If not, I can do so - If you guys are interested that is. My theme will depend on the # of sign ups.

I guess I could start the Garfield Mafia now but if you was going to do the WWE Mafia 2 I would more interested in that  |

Feel Free to start The Garfield Mini Mafia Sign Ups. (Although, it's not really a mini compared to most places) |

I wouldn't mind taking a crack at doing one of these eventually. Seems like they aren't too difficult to run.
If I did I was thinking of doing a Phoenix Wright Mafia game. People get murdered all the time in that one anyway so it would be a perfect environment.
