FRC Mafia

I have noticed on this forum a serious lack of the most fun forum game in existence: Mafia. As such, I have taken it upon myself to try and start a game.
For those with no idea what I am talking about, I will explain. At the beginning of the game, I will assign everyone a role. Each role has different abilities, as well as being affiliated with either FIRST (village) or the Luddites (Mafia. For those who don't know, Luddites were those during the industrial revolution who destroyed machines because they hated technology.)
The game is organized into Day phases and Night phases. During the night phase, the Luddites choose one villager's robot to destroy. After your bot is destroyed, you are "dead" and can no longer post. During the day, the village chooses one person, by vote, to disqualify. (Disqualification is also tantamount to death.) FIRST wins when all the Luddites are gone, and the Luddites win when they outnumber FIRST teams. For the purpose of making it fun, there will be no vanilla townies (aka those with no special ability).
Anyone who has any questions, or is interested, please post here.
EDIT: those wondering how mafia is played on forums, check out www.mafiascum.net, a forum completely dedicated to mafia.

I've played this game since childhood (and I'll admit have done it a couple times in college) in person with people, but I've never done it or seen it on a forum.

I'm a little intrigued to hear how you would do it on a forum.

Re: FRC Mafia

I thought nobody played this on forms because repeated use of the word mafia on a forum could draw some interesting search results. BUT HEY IM DOWN!
Mechanics of it on a forum would be interesting.
