Might be a good idea to make a guide to the acronyms. I managed to google most of them, but it's a hard enough game without having to google some of the important acronyms. Here's a start:

VT = Vanilla Townie. Basic town player with no special abilities.
DT = Detective.
KP = Kill Power. If accompanied by a number, the number of people that role/faction can kill at night.
SK = Serial Killer. (not in this game)

EBWOP = Edit By Way Of Post. Because editing is strictly forbidden, use this acronym in a doublepost to indicate an edit.
EBWODP = Edit By Way of Double Post. Same as above.
OMGUS = Oh My God U Suck. When someone accuses someone else based ONLY on the fact that that someone accused him first.
WIFOM = Wine In Front Of Me. A reference to + Show Spoiler [this] + scene from the princess bride. Meaning: a load of useless speculation about the motives of others, that can neither be confirmed nor denied and is not aiding the town objective of hunting scum.
FoS = Finger of Suspicion. When you don't want to vote for someone, but want to make it very clear that he/she is under suspicion of being mafia.

LYLO = LYnch or LOse. Situation in which the town has to lynch a mafia, in order to not lose the game.
MYLO = MislYnch and LOse. Softcore version of the above: town can suffer a no-lynch, but a mislynch costs them the game (cannot happen in this game).

May we vote for ourselves?
It says in the OP that we can but in Newbie Mini Mafia VI it also said this until someone asked, at which point Radfield silently edited it and claimed that it was never allowed in the first place... Better safe than sorry
