The Thing Mafia: idea
in honor of halloween a mafia game with no mafia. instead one character is selected as "the thing" who infects other players. Similar to cult every other night they infect one other player. Difference is if the original is killed another infected takes its place. Meaning you have to kill them all to win.
Special units Medic: can test 2 people a night for infection Jailer: can lock up one other player. Player cannot vote or become infected but can be tested and lynched. Security: Each night he can look up security cameras to see who was with another character the night before. The Thing: Every other night infects another player Infected: Those taken over by The Thing Mystery creature: Power will be revealed to player

If it's balanced properly, I'd love this. I'd put some restrictions on the jailer, so that he can't constantly just keep one person locked up, and maybe take some precautions to ensure teh game doesn't have a chance to end on the first day, if the thing already gets lynched.

like, jailer cant imprison the same person twice in a row?
it is abit hard to balance, originally I was going to have one infection a day, but then the thing would be next to impossible to stop. However I was planning on having a rule where you need more like 75% to be infected. Otherwise once the numbers get low its basically an auto-win. On a related note I want to know opinions on if the infected should be aware of who else is infected or restrict information somehow

If one person is infected per night, and there's one lynch a day, the thing instantly wins, if the game doesn't end on D1. You'd probably need to balance it differently.

You need a comeback mechanic for the town. Like, some way to ensure they can keep going, even when the thing keeps expanding. Every time the town misses the Thing, the town's down two players (One killed, one infected). You maybe don't want the infected communicating, so that the town doesn't get super screwed over by the Things voting block growing constantly, and the town's shrinking at an even faster speed.

yea I need some special unit that can also attack the infected, while keeping it hidden who that is. Maybe allow them to work with the medic, so they can do night kills but only with those confirmed infected

So, when, if ever, were you planning to start this? Does anyone still care about the big mafia game list?

Well I'm all for running it, though as you said not so sure there are enough people to play.
