Yes, it might be a good solution to have it be a secret who's actually playing the game. Well, for the next game anyway. I can definitely see two friends being tempted into telling eachother their roles. This game is not meant to be played on a forum, so there will always be flaws like that. :] It's easier to approach a friend and trust them than a complete stranger. You'll feel so much unsure of their role if you don't know them.

I've been thinking about another idea too though. I feel I've nagged enough on the admins as it is, but I'll just ventilate my idea anyway xD and if they think it's a good idea then great. :] The idea I had in mind would be to have a sub forum where only the alive mafia accounts could post. That way we wouldn't have to worry about people messing up and posting with the wrong account. Example from something that happened this round: Shauna accidentally posted in the picture thread as her mafia account, then she deleted the post and made an exact same post as Shauna. This resulted in Psychotic accidentally figuring out Shauna's identity because Psychotic can see deleted posts. The forum would also be viewable for other members, so they could follow the action, but not interfere with it. Wouldn't have to worry about the thread dropping down the page because of inactive periods either. We could also have a separate thread for voting, to keep things a bit more organized. There's so many factors in this game so things can easily get messy.

and of course, the threads would be archived and this sub forum would be deleted once the game was over so it wouldn't be annoying. And while playing the forum itself could be located some place down the forum page so it wouldn't be annoying for everyone not playing. ;o And if outsiders wanted to discuss the game (like we are doing now), we'd have a thread in GC or feedback or something.

But yeah, these are just some random ideas. I'm not even planning on hosting a third round. xD I wanna play dammit! So that's just a random idea for the future host.
