I recall playing Mafia here at PMS, right? But the two major problems with Mafia are that someone has to run it, and thus can't play, and the people who get eliminated early on just have to sit around and wait, which sucks.
I just bought The Resistance, which has the same idea of evil people who know each other working against the group as a whole, while keeping everyone involved in the game. It was on the last episode of Tabletop (which I may have a problem with watching now, since that's two episodes in a row I bought the game they played right after I watched it....)

Have you played it yet?
I'm definitely into the whole "half the room is against the other half" thing--my group has been hitting the Battlestar Galactica game pretty hard, and it's great, but it's got a little bit of a feature creep problem that makes it hard to explain to new players, so this might be an attractive alternative.
...I guess I could just watch the youtube video.

I did play it last night. I got totally fooled by one of the players.

I wish I had the time to be part of a board game group!
It is pretty killer and we should totally be stopping and counting our blessings on that account.

Played the game more tonight with my family. It's so good. And it gets better the more you play.
