Don't paraphrase the mod! Don't cut and paste the PM you received from the mod!

Mr. Flay, in character mafia has been rarely explored on this site. However, some people with really poor grammar or who willfully forego punctuation have been adversely affected, I think. The level of English you display in your posts is a (possibly inaccurate) depiction of your intelligence. You will find it difficult to convince anyone of anything if you can't make your ideas clear.

If you get annoying, you'll know. People have started bandwagons based on moving avatars. We call them the avatar facists. I'm sure that there are IC facists.

FrogGurl, the best way to make a conversion from theme to game without sticking to the mold is to only use the theme for inspiration. What I mean is fairly simple: take a couple characters, a couple situations, but ignore plot lines (which you can't control in Mafia anyway) and twist things up a bit.

For example: A mod decides to take a crack at Snow White Mafia. How easy would it be to make the dwarves the 7 townies, the witch evil, give her a couple henchmen, etc. Bonus points for killing Snow White. Instead, make one of the dwarves evil, make Snow White a dwarf killing vigilante, and the prince isn't a doctor, he's the witch finding cop. Heck, maybe the Witch starts alone, and can recruit the dwarves.

Be adventuresome. If you recreated the book, everyone would know how it ended.

All these questions are addressed somewhere on this board, so I can help point you in right direction. To mod, you need to have completed a game as I understand it. Then you go to the minigame queue, and put your name on the list, choosing themed or regular games. Go check out the minigame queue's front page for more info.

As for checking out the setup, there's a thread in here somewhere where you can ask for that exact thing, but I think you've found it already.

IT's the right place, just have to wait for someone to notice and want to help. I would, but my internet access is always inconsistent, so I try to avoid commitments, especially ones with low turnarounds.
