I like Jon Miller's idea.

[Nikolai]

HEY! I know of people that are more obsessed with their post count than I am...

I like half of the idea Jon came with. I agree with having two Mafias, but I think we should have that, only one killing and the same amount of people in the game!

[Spaced Cowboy]

I think that we should have 20 people in the game.

1 mafia.

20 objects.
Each person gets 15 objects.
The mafia has to drop one object at each murder.
Hence we actually have clues and the mafia has to be careful who he kills.

I would be nice to have SOME kind of clue... but how to make it simple? And how to make it so its not too obvious who the mafia is?

Maybe make it so that the GM for every Mafia kill post some information about who it is not.

As in:

vovan was tending his heard on the east field,
as he noticed something strange in the shrubs nearby.
On closer inspection, he saw it was DrSpike - very dead.
 Apparently he had been castrated, and his genitals
stuffed in his mouth.

It is now day - please vote on who you think the mafia is. 

Clue: The mafia is not American

Even that is too much of a beyatch. We need some kind of clue though.

[Jamski]

Either that or the ability to establish an ALIBI somehow...

With Sheep gone and Tuber being banned from here during working hours, it seems this game will be going much much slower than normal. As a solution to this, I will take over this game - assuming that is ok with all others involved.

Could the mafia pm me with their next kill please, and a secondary target incase their main one is executed by the village first. Danke.

*votes Spaced Cowboy*

I'd like to resuggest my idea of having a secret agent who is allowed to discern the identity of one player each round. With two mafias, he needs to be careful that he won't get offed by blabbering too soon. If he waits too long then the two mafias will have too much control over the votes. This also indirectly creates clues, as it might be difficult for the mafias to hide a pattern in their votes.

[Asmodean]

I like Sore Loser's idea.

The informant will have to keep tight untill he suspects who the two mafia is.

But let's make it so the informant only gets clues, not whole truths. It would be the job of the informant to peice together the clues, and guess who the two mafia are.

If it doesn't put too much weight on the GM's shoulders, I like the idea of clues. It also keeps the agent from lucking into the identity of the mafias very early on.

[Jamski]

Would the mafia know who he is? Why shouldn't they kill him in the first round?

-Jam

[Sore Loser]

The agent's identity is also hidden. Obviously, the mafias will try to find out who the agent is and get rid of him ASAP. Meaning that a player who is under suspicion will not find it to be of much use to claim to be the agent. Whether he is the agent or not, he'll likely be killed by the mafia next round.

Having something to go on would indeed be nice. Let's try it out next game to see what happens.
