Lets play an online game of Mafia If I get enough people responding to this thread with interest we can start a game. [More:]

for those of you who've never played mafia in real life or online here's how it goes.

We get 22 or so people that say they want to play. They each give some sort of contact info so they can be contacted with game info. The moderator would send them each a role (mafia, doctor, townsfolk...) Then we open a thread here and call it something clever like MeFia. At the top of the thread will be all the rules and a list of the people playing. In the tread people will start to speculate who is in the mafia. Then they would post there vote for the day. At the end of an allotted time period (24 hours or so) all the votes will be tallied and the person that gets the most votes will be lynched by the townsfolk. After someone is lynched the people in the mafia will message each other and figure out who they want to have bumped off. They will send that to the moderator who would post the the creative obituary of the person the mob chose to whack. The next day will start and everyone gets to accuse and vote again. The cycle continues until the there are only towns people left, or only mafia left. The last side standing wins and we complete a weird little online social experiment.

The link to the wikipedia article has better rules if you don't get it.

Anyone game?

Hmmm ... I'm game. But I'm up for most things, right now. When it's late and I'm drunk.

I'm up for it.

(The first rule of Mafia is you do not talk about Mafia.)

Hm. Did this work out?

I think this game would be very, very hard to play online. So much of it depends on body language and eye contact and...shiftiness.
