And I'd like to try my hand at hosting again too... but with a very, very simple/barebones, traditional mafia game, supplemented by a dark, detective noir storyline. (ie, Just one detective for the townies, no doctor, no vigilante, no roles other than Townie and Mafia). I'd be curious to see how a "pure" mafia experience like that goes over.
Even though there'd be no roles other than the one cop, I'd hope people would roleplay this one. Maybe with less rules/roles to worry about, we'd get a little town started. Perhaps there's a barkeep, a roustabout, a blue-collar-type, a drunk, a lounge singer, etc. Whatever people want. I think that'd be pretty cool.
