Could someone explain to me what a mafia game is?

It's an online forum based version of Mafia that you play in real life. The rules are different online, but allow for greater creative control than the simple town, doctor, cop, and mafia that real life versions offer.

Here's a good newbie guide at mafiascum.

And here's a good list of possible roles

The rules are a bit different too, no quoting role pms or mod pms, no editing or deleting posts either.

Wow, sounds interesting....
Thanks for the links m8

We could always use some new blood. Give it a shot sometime!

I would love to try but reading about it I would definitely need a mentor or something

Or you could try to enter one of the new mafia games designed for non-maffia players.
I suggest looking at this shiny new forum viewforum.php?f=213
It shows new games, a handbook, discussions and a lot more about maffia games.
