Oh boy! If I'm playing host, does that mean I get to write the... oh, the word slips my mind. The filler text, I guess? The uh, oh you get the point. I'm excited. Blah blah blah blah.

It's not filler text!!! It's the sacred flavour that introduces humour into mafia games!  XD

here is a sample.  Read the death scenes for some quick fun... :P

SirBayer, I'll say this much, you NEED to be reading your PMs.  I addressed that to you already.

Edit: reread and realized what you actually said.
 
Yes, Sir, you will be the one to write the flavor text.  In fact, you are handling everything the host handles.  I'm more behind the scenes to help you out (hopefully more than in the last game.. good thing the Glyph and the ICs are capable, because I dropped the ball there completely :/).  You decide the roles and who gets them.  You set up the deadlines and run the day/night cycles.  You keep the rules in check.  And yes, you write the flavor text.
 
Note that you don't have to write as much as what you see in other games.  You can keep it short and sweet, or just go off the wall.  Just make sure that the flavor doesn't have a real impact on the game.

@Alex

I'm perfectly fine with having more than one IC, though you'll need to decide whether you'll want to focus on the town or mafia.  If 'being IC' includes managing the other IC then that's fine as well.

It was a joke... I'm confident that Org will act mature enough to give impartial advice from what he has learned and experienced so far.

I'm always here if someone wants to hear my opinion on any mafia theory matter.

Well, to be serious, I wouldn't mind at all if you imparted your ideas on the new folks.  We debate like hell half the time over everything, but I'm pretty D*** sure that the novices will gain from what you can give them.

I'm pretty damned sure that I will gain from what you can give us.  Please come Town-IC?

Note to Dakarian: OP is becoming too damned long to read.  You might want to spoiler some stuff down.
