yes, the film.

the premise of it seems like it would involve multiple families. and uninformed majority roles would be hard to find.

i suppose a good film to base a game on would be the departed [excellent by the way]

in any case, after 316 finishes up [or i die, whichever comes first] i would like to create a Godfather-based game. ill do some research [sitting on my couch and watching the godfather] and find some roles for the town.

Not that that shouldn't be a turnoff, but it couldn't just be a throwaway theme game, it'd need so much thought into it.
yes, i agree wholeheartedly. this is not a theme to be taken lightly

im going to put a ton of time into the design of the game. and the roles used

there may even be sequels

That's the whole idea behind the Uninformed Majority (or at least Plurality): you can't just lynch blindly because that person MIGHT be on your team.
thats a good point. i suppose an uninformed majority is quite necesarry.

[mental note: make uninformed majority]

this would definitely be a theme game[i think.]

can anyone tell me what the requirements are for modding a theme game?
