I think the momentum faltered in this mafia because of the epicness of gentlemans mafia... it was a hard act to run along side. As you say, a little more flair in the way the write-ups were written could have improved the immersion a bit.
That being said I had alot of fun. Thanks to my intersting role (and blind luck) I felt like a useful townie... a rare thing to find in a mafia game. I also think this was the first mafia where I felt able to "spot" mafia from what they said in their posts.
The roles, whilst powerful, happened to be nicely balenced. Any mafia that ends with only 4 people left shows that neither side was grossly overpowered compaired to the others. Whilst the mafia risked becoming unstoppable (from poisoning double kill and dead doctor) my power nicely counter balenced the situation.
Thankyou Maddog.

I think ReZ's lynch bomb was the most awe inspiring moment in any mafia I've played. Just sitting there thinking "that CANT have happened"
