Yes. Eager like he is mafia and already in a hurry to kill us!!!!

Listen to me son, back in the old days, we would give brats who were talking like you a good beating, but nowadays that's not possible anymore. What' yer trying to do is one of the oldest tricks in the book. Yer trying to draw the attention to me to cover up yer dirty little secrets, but that ain't gonna work on me. I've been dealing with the mafia before you were even born. I can smell a liar from 100ft away and I can tell that you're one. Nobody is gonna believe a kid anyway, so shut yer trap before you regret it.

*grumble grumble*

[Magoo]

How about a super heroes theme. I could see Super Man, Wonder Woman, The Hulk & Spidey Man teaming up against any of the known villains.

Also scientists versus creationists. Dawkins and the like against Sye Tengrumpenthorp (whatever his name is). Scientists would use technology while the creationists use stone age tools to kill during the night.

Or, a theme from the good fellas movie where we are all mafia. Start with no Godfather until the first successful kill is made and they pick the added wise guys.

How about a users choice of famous actors and musicians?

Big thumbs up on these ideas, in particular.

I like the idea of super heroes just because I'm a geek.
I like the idea of everyone being mafia. I think sometimes Townies don't enjoy the game as much because they are denied expressing our God-given proclivity to kill people.

The scientists vs creationists one sounds interesting. My vote goes to that suggestion.

I just prefer the plain ole mafia-townie theme It kinda gets a bit confusing when you have themes and all the Jesus lingo from last time was a bit annoying.

[LadyJane]

I think Aliens would be fun, too. However, I also second Superhero or the original mafia themed.

Oh yeah, did you ever see the movie 'They Live'? Aliens would be fun!

I could do a creationist vs scientist theme. The creationists would be Mafia

Great idea with plenty of creative potential! Thanks for that.

I'm sure most of us here can identify with this theme since it's mostly what we talk about here already! Better not let the creationists win!
