I talked with the mods about a new idea that Puppyduck suggested... The " Bandwagon" or " Fast Track" Queue for new mafia games. Basically how this is how it will work:- We will have a separate queue for Bandwagon Mafia games. The Bandwagon queue will have one game running, while the normal queue will have 2.
- These games will have their sign-ups right before the game begins, i.e. Night 0. (This way we will not have to worry about no-shows).
- These games will be limited to a smaller size (15 players or less).
- Standard Mod rules apply, (e.g. You must play at least one game on the site before hosting a game).
- Since there will be no sign up threads, the person wanting to host should reserve their game in this thread. They should type RESERVE: <Game Name> if they want to hold a theme, and READY: <Game Name>when all the roles and balancing are COMPLETE.
- The Queue will progress according to "ready" order, rather than "reserve" order.
- The Mods have the right to reject any mafia themes that we deem to be inappropriate or uninteresting (not to be mean, but we need to guarantee that people will want to play it). We will most likely offer a possible remedy.
- Members that are currently hosting a game in the normal queue will be allowed to submit a game to this queue (up to 1 game in each queue), but the fresh hosts will be given priority.
- Hosts of games that are in the normal queue currently can switch to the Bandwagon queue, but their sign-ups will be reset and game size must be adjusted to fit the maximum.
If you have any questions or suggestions, you may post them here. Also, if you want to reserve a game, you may do so now. QUEUE1. Vanilla Mafia - Darthpokey (currently hositng Hats mafia) 2. Doctor Who Mafia- Monstrman RESERVED1. Classic Mafia - wave57 2. TV Tropes Mafia - kirawillwin 3. Catch 22 Mafia - kpio/Monstrman

This is a really good idea.
Kinda surprised that no one has jumped on this though. If I wasn't already doing the thing with Crav, or if I thought Motivation Mafia wouldn't be too swingy with 15 people, I'd totally get in on this.

Actually monstr, this is the thread for hosts to sign up. Once your game is next in line and I give you the go-ahead (which I have), you can go ahead and start a new thread for your game's sign-ups (i.e. Night 0).

You're supposed to do like Ready: Magic Mafia, and I'd add you to the queue, but since I already have talked to you by PM, I added you already, so you're good to go!

I know I played on Case Closed, and got lynched fast. But this game idea I have is awesome, I'm doing it already on RBO and it'll be fine if it's here too. Heck, even if the same people are playing. By the time this starts Magic, SSBB or Lufia 3 should be over by that time. So I'm putting this here.
RESERVE: Classic Mafia
This is just good ol' classic mafia. No special roles. Just Town vs. Mafia. That's it. 11 people.
I hope this is okay with you guys.

Do you think the number of mafia and town should be open?

Hey, Crav sent me a message about some of the Starmen crew starting another mafia game? Is this the right thread for that?

RESERVE: Firefly Mafia
I got most of the roles worked out, it should be about 15 players. Since it fits the criteria, I think it would be a good candidate for a second Bandwagon game!

I know wave already said he was going to do a classic mafia but I'm planning on doing one too. This site needs more good ol classic mafia. Vanilla mafia is pretty easy to plan out so my game is all ready to go
Ready: Vanilla mafia
Also I might do a MA theme (pick your own name/character) for it just to make the game a bit more interesting. Besides that though it will be all vanilla townies/mafia

Ready: Firefly Mafia
I actually still have to finish writing a few of the Role PMs, but otherwise, I think I'm ready to take sign-ups. And since DP is hosting a game currently, I'll take the liberty of starting the game pretty soon.

I apologise for the mess that was Star Fox mafia, being plagued by inactivity and having almost no internet access right in the middle of the game caused it to fall apart. It's interesting to note that I am still missing night actions (although I realise a great deal of it failing is my fault). However READY: Mystery Mafia I'm willing to give hosting another shot. Hopefully with a smaller game size and a more active player base the game will work much better. Plus, I'm a much more practiced host now (due to IRC mafia) and actually have a clue what I'm doing. Also: FUN GAME MECHANICS.
Also on the off chance that Hats mafia is still running when we get to this, I'm going to point out that DP does pretty much all the hosting of that game (I just contribute BEHIND THE SCENES GENIUS). So I would be capable of hosting this and cohosting that at the same time.
EDIT: For the sake of readability I added a queue to the OP.
