So I've just had a great idea, and you're bored so it all works.

I'm going to suggest a Mafia game for you.

From what I once read last year, Mafia is basically a paranoia game.

So here's the concept, and Bent will be the mod in charge of the details and running the thing, it's called "Inquisition".
You're all living in medieval Phoenix Inn and Mafia is a heretical movement, kind of like Arianism.
One day in a local pub, some Inquisitors walk in and inform you all that they've tracked down some heretics to certain clients of this very pub.
They tell you that the only way for anyone to survive is that they have 24hours to discover and turn in the heretics.
Or replace medieval setting with Warhammer 40k style inquisition, if you want to see members of the Adeptus Astartes walking around.

Oh, and I won't be playing.
Since I don't play Mafia.
But I won't stop you from playing.

I know I am, you should seen me when I'm drunk.
And I still think it's a good parody of what were doing elsewhere.

Of course it is, that's the point of the game.
And I said you were in charge of the details so have fun.
Hell you can even make one of the heretics DW (unless of course Jester is mafia speak for something like that).

I'd play, still waiting for the Warhammer 40k game.

Since there is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

That would totally be my motto in that game, if it ever happens.

Well other than the basic premise I don't know what else is needed.
I think the rules are pretty much the same from game to game, or at least the core rules. Anything added is just candy. Sometimes keeping it simple is best.

Jester is a role that wins if he gets himself lynched...

I very much doubt I'd be a blast to play against seeing as I have never played. I'd probably lose within the first time frame.

Gem Windcaster won her first 2 games. I nearly won my first...don't be so negative, someone will point you out as a noob and try to get you lynched, they will be scum and you play it out to the end. If you yell louder and are less of a dick to the rest of the group, hell you might actually win.

There's also the problem of time.
Except on rare occasions I actually don't spend that much time being active on the forum.
I regularly spend lapses of time when I don't sign in for two or more days straight.

Dude, just to get you into a game would be an achievement, one post in one game would make me eminsely happy. Also no pressure, if you get time hop in. If I set up your game, I'll pm you so you can watch..

Heretics and one abomination. The inquisition has it's job cut out for it.

But It was my understanding that players have to post at least once per day, before a certain time?

Yes, but the length of the day isn't set in stone, it can vary from game to game.

Well, the problem being:

No modkill-Lurking would be too easy. If you had a couple of lurkers you could waste half the game going for them, get no closer to scum, and they sit laughing with mid post counts.
And you can't really make it no modkill just for DW, cause people may get pissed off, or worried that he's the killer, and lynch. Or if he draws killer, he could lurk.
