I'm thinking about doing a mini game with an as yet undetermined theme. Right now leaning toward a book-themed mafia with characters like Stephen King, J.K. Rowling and others.

FYI - Garfield in friends mafia has been in a lynch or lose(LyLo) state for the last two days, but have managed to make it to the final day. It is currently tied at a 1-1 vote.

It's a nice situation for these smaller sized games, based on gameplay rather than power-roles. It reminds me of things work in other forums. You get LyLo situations like these quite often due to the size and amount of day phases.. There is more I want to say about how the gameplay works in these final stages (3 left on the final day), but I don't want to spoil or effect the game in any way.
*Take note aspiring mafia hosts - A good game doesn't need an abundance of power-roles to be exciting. Pure game-play can be equally great to see.

I love/loved this game, dealt more with the investigation/intuition side of things than relying on power roles. You're standard townie/mafia goon played a major part.

BTW - I've updated the list(s) on the first page. I only added themes that were stated/named in some way.
Btw, the list of games are not in order by number of which goes first or last. Games will go with preference on people who haven't hosted before and if they're ready. If the 'new' hosts aren't ready, than whoever is ready, at that time, can run their game next. So if you have run a game before, then you'll have to wait until the new host run theirs, that is, if they have their games ready to run. This isn't set in stone, however, so things may turn up circumstantial, such as if a host prefers someone else to go ahead, before them.

Ah... sorry about that. Misinterpreted it.
Let me start with a Marvel vs. Capcom, would be easier to do as a first one, since I wont be as compelled to make certain people town/mafia. I still want to reserve Star wars too tho, since I want to attempt a multi part series with it.

Cool Sns, I can put both on the lists. But what sizes of games do you think you'll want? One smaller, one larger, or both of the same size?
*Also added SnS's list of the past games, in spoilers in the OP.

I reserve the right to adjust that number for balance. The first Star Wars one will be small. Can't have everyone dying off before I do the sequel

Go ahead and put my shorter game as ready, I suppose. I'm thinking if it's alright with everyone I can go ahead and start signing people up once Brad's current Garfield Mafia finishes.

On the status of ready: Ready means that your game is completely ready with your ROLE-Pm's to send out to everyone and get the game started right away. So that there's no wait. In Development, means the host is still working on it. If a host is ready with everything, just post here to say so and I'll update the list. I've updated the list with what everyone has recently brought up here. I'll give the go ahead for sign-ups, as I think it would be good to have a bit of post game talk for everyone to learn and adjust things a little before beginning a new one. It's great to talk about the previous game before immediately turning to a new one. Edit: Don't worry, it won't be a long wait. Probably just a day's length.

Alright then. I'll go ahead and hold off on making the thread for now. I almost jumped the gun a little, but I'll make sure it's alright before I create it.

Um, a note - I count the two lists as separate.
If you haven't run a large game, but have run a small game that would be fine. In fact I'd say its better if the host has experience in hosting a small game, before going to larger games. Might even have some preference there, if the host is new to large games, but ran a small game.
# Side Note: Concerning replacement players, GM's should avoid replacing with people who have already died and have extra knowledge that their previous character may have had. Even if you tell them not to use said knowledge, they'll stull have it and that might influence the game some. It would be better sometimes, to just modkill the character, if there are no other viable options.

I wasn't sure if they were separate or not that's good I think they should be separate I'm so excited about hosting a large game after having done a small one.

I think I'll do 12 in my Mafia game. Again, I'm not completely certain on the theme but I do have some ideas kicking around.

I think I want to do a small game. Saved by the Bell. I'll have to read more, but these games are so much fun.

Anon, could you be so kind as to add Lost Mafia to the waiting list, please? Status: In development.
Probably around 17-21 players. Enough to get a good batch of characters, but still leave room for a sequel if it's popular enough.

Mrs. Anonymous GM, may I suggest Sunday Comics Mafia? (You know. Calvin and Hobbes, Peanuts, Foxtrot, The Far Side, stuff like that.)
EDIT: I've decided on Books Mafia. I'm working on characters and roles right now.

Still trying to get stuff sorted out so I'll wait at least until your Mafia game is finished, Veronica.

When I wake up in the morning And the alarm gives out a warning I don't think I'll ever make it on time By the time I grab my books, And I give myself a look, I'm at the corner just in time to see the bus fly by It's alright ''cause I'm saved by the bell If the teacher pops a test, I know I'm in a mess, And my dog ate all my homework last night, Ridin' low in my chair, She won't know that I'm there, If I can hand it in tomorrow, it'll be all right! It's alright, ''cause I'm saved by the bell I'm a big Saved by the Bell fan I would so love to join that mafia game.
