The 1st game will be basic vanilla setup with a theme I've yet to decide. Godfather is an advanced role and I'm sure we'll use it if we'll have enough people... Eventually. I'm just prodding to see if there's enough interest something like that here.
Sweet. This means we have 4 people currently for the 1st game - we need 3 more. It depends, but since this is a vanilla game with 7 people (and I think most people don't have THAT much experience) I'd guess it won't last longer than 2-3 weeks. Huge activity isn't required - in other games I've seen people post once or twice every 4 days and they'd be fun. The activity and the time will be down on the players (I may impose deadlines if it will be dragging)
Roles are assigned by PM's and sent to all players. This is a roleplaying game - you will all have specific win conditions which you'll need to go. Since this is a C9 game, the setup will be posted along with the game. Actions are taken at night (well, there are some day actions, but not in vanilla game) and events will be basically me posting day and night results (since, again, this is a vanilla game).
I can post a few links to sample games if you'd like.
