Some story and context is good, but the random guessing is what is fun for me. Gruesome deaths are also entertaining. Hooray!

Some story would be appreciated. Clues tend to be dropped more about the players than their characters anyway, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
There is also Assassin, if people are really unhappy and there's another GM to be had...

And I'll stay in the Mafia.
We can have lots of fun without a story. I've played it that way in RL, and so long as people are willing to be talkatative, it's fun.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Where does talkative stop and spammy begin?
BTW Sheep, you need to put FG: in front of the title of the thread to let lord of the mark know that this is a forum game. I suppose rah could edit it for you if he's feeling generous or if lotm pesters him enough.
I totally agree with SnowFire (well, apart from the Nile reference). The 'poly Mafia game is far more fun than the RL version simply because we have plots and clues. These clues need not be so obvious, but as long as they are there then the players can at least feel as if they have a chance of winning by skill, and not luck alone. What clues will we have in this pared-down game? Only the fact that we think a mafia might try to kill someone who voted for them in the turn before, and I don't think we've had a mafia who has done that for ages simply because it's too obvious.
Sheep, please provide at least a basic plot and some clues or I shall be up at dawn alongside SnowFire and DarkCloud to commit hara-kiri.

As can I. Sheep's freeform take on the theme is rather refreshing, a return to the roots if one can say so.
IRL games have no story, yes, but in them the wild accusation part is greatly accentuated by actually being there in person (body language, tones of voices, everything) so there's a whole lot of more communication going on. So of course it's enjoyable even without a story.Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!

Guys, relax, Sheep said he'd have a story. A unit of US marines in an Afghan village.
He just didn't have time to do the write-up.
I'd prefer an Iraqi village, but even Afghan is fine. I'd like to see prominent figures from the American administration visiting this village.
And there were clues in Sheep's stories. Always. For those who troubled themselves to look for them.

Title fixed.
I'm looking forward to this retro game. His Kill descriptions were always very amusing. And while the main focus wasn't the storyline, there was one.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

There is a village. As for stories, the stories progress. The chracters are yourselves. Thus if you want to be a Miller then be a miller. I need remind you however that I am the Chieftan.
Also remember the fact that my deaths are gruesome and I drop slight clues admist many riddles make this game enjoyable. For those who forget this is in the style of the original mafia game.

Does it mean the even turn mafia sent the kill orders and not the odd turn one? Or are you going to kill two people at the time? Now that would be something.
