I tried smurfing a mafia game once. I fucked up halfway through by forgetting to switch back off my main account. (I think I might have been playing in two games at once)
Imagine if you were Mafia, Mordek. Most of the brainwracking and constant second-guessing/extrapolation I did was because I felt tense whenever I didn't feel like we were in a comfortable position (which is always, because nothing is comfortable till you're uber-dominant for me :<), don't think I'd have had that had I been townie.
Also I have work and boss is checking on my productivity so can't afford to have 100 posts to catch up to every morning.
Edit: I'm pretty sure I remember ketchup and you actually pointing out that I played not to die instead of playing to make Mafia win with my posts LT.

ketchup and LT were my only friends that game
but for all the work you put in, you played very well
I might've. Again, I died night one and I'm generally an analytical player, so D1 is when I'm weakest. Iirc, you still played very well and I would have had a very difficult time catching you even if i lived.

Forum BSG on the other hand is wonderful.
What is forum BSG and is it as amazing as it sounds?
Fantasy Flight Games made a board game version of Battlestar Galatica. It was very popular and has three expansions.
On forums like Board Game Geek you can Play By Forum the game and it's a lot of fun. Some friends of mine play on a private forum that doesn't have the stringent ownership requirements of BGG.
Anyway it's basically a more structured form of mafia. In person it takes a couple of hours to play, on a forum it takes two or more months depending on how often people check in.
