Mafia: general discussions.

Keep up the good work, and you'll see that I'll start awarding points for each post based on the level of flaming. I would delete everything, but that won't help here :(

DEAR SECTION MODERATORS, why don't you write a guide for the game? Or at least a few tips. So that newcomers have some basic knowledge, instead of just floundering around. Okay, noobs might not need it, but good advice would be useful even for some players who have already played a bit. And you could also share your experience as a GM: mistakes, hints, passwords, and trainers... you get the idea.

I don't think so; there are plenty of examples of Mafia games, and there's an article on Wikipedia, but creating a universal guide on how each typical role should behave in a Mafia game is unlikely to be possible. And the advice not to be stupid is just stating the obvious.
