I would suggest a standard one for the new players to ink teeth into, if they express interest anyway. Much as I'd like to play another BYOR game.
The idea of Mostly Vanilla Mafia as a series is three things.
1: Every player, town or mafia (or third party), gets a power role.
2: While the setup is not known, certain constraints are held solid so nobody's caught too off balance.
3: Most roles exist within a vanilla playing field, with just a bit of creative wriggle room.
I think it's fairly ideal for newer players, as compared to a BYOR, which tends to get far out of the reasonable range.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

MATRIX6 has ended.

Anyone ahead of me want to run their game next? Or should I put Mostly Vanilla Mafia 3 / FBYOR 5 (depending on which is wanted more) into signups?

So when is the next game starting?  ;D

So, I see I'm towards the bottom of the signup list.  That is good.  Just making sure it's really towards the bottom, so I don't have to figure it out yet.
I'll start some of the discussion regarding set up, just in case.

Haven't seen 4mask or Jim post in awhile so maybe PM both about it?

I don't expect to do much here for a while. Take me off the queue.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

I'd rather see Mostly Vanilla Mafia 3 over FBYOR5. BYORs can eat dirt.

They are fun pieces of insanity. I suppose I can see why though, too much keysanity is bad for you.
