Not Voting: Azrael, Wheat_Grinder
With 12 alive, it's 7 to lynch.
I have just realized that Wheat_Grinder never confirmed their role PM. I'll be sending a prod and allowing a little extra time for Wheat to arrive before taking further action since I fired the game prematurely. Apologies to all.
The sun rises, and the town crier announces the finding of the corpse of some irrelevant NPC. It's happening again. The mafiaing!
Everyone grabs a pitchfork and gathers around the gallows. Time for a long day of discussion. And then perhaps a hanging.
It is now day 1.
Note that I can't easily access MTGS from work, so mod updates will hereafter be limited to after work hours. This update is coming via phone, and I can't figure out how to change the thread's title on mobile, but it is day 1.
[1] I will enforce the rules strictly, because I'm evil like that.
[2] Your vote must be in bold and at the start of a line. You don't need to unvote before voting.
[3] If my vote count doesn't seem to reflect your vote, just revote.
[4] Lynching requires a simple majority. You may vote no lynch, which also requires a simple majority. You can post during twilight.
[5] Once your death scene has been posted, you're dead. Dead people don't make forum posts. If you make a post after you are dead, I will hunt you down. For the record, I actually have a text file on my computer of all the people who've broken this rule in the past. I may or may not have plans for it.
[6] While most days will not start with a deadline, I reserve the right to impose a deadline at any time. If the game reaches the deadline, I'll pretend everyone not voting doesn't exist and check again for a majority. If there is, that person gets lynched. If there isn't, there's no lynch for the day.
[7] Post at least once every 48 hours (weekends count as 24 total). If you don't, I'll hunt you down. And prod you. After that you’ll be given at most another 48 hours or so before you are either replaced or modkilled. If you're going to be without computer access for more than 48 hours, let me know ahead of time either in the thread or by PM. Remember, people: if we work together we can have a replacement free game, but that can only happen with your help.
[8] No funny stuff like invisible text, tiny text, cryptography, or acronym claims.
[9] Don't edit posts.
[10] Don't quote PMs.
[11] You may not talk outside of the thread to anyone about anything that goes on in this game. Period. Whether you're dead, or they're dead, whether they're in the game or not. The only exception is if your role specifically allows it.
[12] Have fun and be nice to the other players and me, even if we don't deserve it.
I reserve the right to modkill any player who breaks any rule [7] or higher. This applies especially to [12], but also note it’s application to [7]. I do not like making people replace into my games. I do not like spending time looking for replacements. I do not like slowing down the game while we go through this whole song and dance of looking for a replacement. Modkills circumvent all these things.
For your consideration, here are some sample PMs. Some, all, or none of these may actually be someone's role.

Sammy, Vanilla Townie
You have no abilities besides your vote.
Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to the town.

Sammy, Town Doctor
You practice medicine, and that gives you the ability to heal some wounds.
Each night you may choose someone else to protect. The first time that person would die that night, you will save their life.
Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to the town.

Sammy, Town Cop
Each night you may choose a player. You will learn that player’s alignment.
Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to the town.
If you EVER have questions about the game, PM me. I love having more ways to procrastinate, and caring to your every whim is one of my favorites. If you are confused, curious, or unsure about anything ever, let me know before doing anything stupid.
It happens all across the country: a little town, in the middle of nowhere, peaceful. Until someone gets disgruntled, organizes themselves a mafia, and starts murdering folks. After that it's all pitchforks and knives in the back until the troublemakers are dead or have killed everyone else.
But then what happens? The countryside is littered with ghost towns, abandoned but for the corpses of victims and lynchees. Where do the survivors go?
Must be that they band together, strike up new little towns of their own. In the middle of nowhere. Peaceful. Until someone gets disgruntled...

Welcome to the 2015 MTGS Mafia Invitational! The players in this game were invited by popular vote from a list of all players who played in at least one MTGS mafia game between September 2014 and September 2015. Welcome players and spectators alike. Let's play some mafia!
I have received the playerlist! I'm not 100% on what the procedure is from here, but if I'm told nothing else soon, I'll probably throw up a thread and send out roles. HOO HA!
Can confirm I will be hosting and have been working on setup ideas since I first thought about offering to host because setup design is fun. Given that it's already been a week and basics aren't that tough, reviewing should take place about a week from now. I'll be looking around for a reviewer after the player list is finalized (so that I don't go asking players for reviews).

...then he was revived as some sort of actual role. Please refrain from posting during pre-game.

I mean, sure? I run a pretty flavor lite ship, but if you want to do the gruntwork of vote counts or something I'll take it. PM me.
Also, I've got a setup ready to review as soon as the playerlist is announced and I find a review not on it.
I've missed it around here.
