Mafia Capital (WWC XIII): Important Info Here -- READ OPENING POSTS!

[JeenLeen]

What is the mood the community? Thing can be run vanilla with scientist (villagers) vs things (werewolves) or I can throw a few powers in there. Is vanilla preferred for a first playthrough to just see what that is like or just jump straight to power-play? Any thoughts on what might attract more new players to the community? General advice or anything specific to this community?

I definitely prefer power games, but I could see vanilla for
1) attract new players, who might know more traditional werewofl
2) it sounds like this Thing game has some unique mechanics (but maybe I'm wrong), and having vanillas otherwise would let the unique aspects shine


EDIT: point 1 is kinda arbitrary, but the mostly/all-power games don't seem to be attracting many new players, so we could try something else.
