Well, I wouldn't be truly back into things at Realms Beyond if I didn't try to pitch a new forum game, would I? 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gameplay structure:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Roles:
5 Villagers, 1 Seer, 1 Apprentice, 1 The Thing, 2 Werewolves.
Villager - Your job is to figure out the Magic Word. You also want to keep an eye out for anyone who might be a Werewolf.
Seer - You will learn the Magic Word before the game starts. You want to help the Village guess the Magic Word. But you don't want to be obvious; if the Werewolves identify you, you lose.
Apprentice - You will learn if the Mayor is the Seer or not before the game starts. If the Mayor *is* the Seer, you will learn the Magic Word, and the Werewolfs will be hunting for you.
The Thing - Before the game starts, you will choose another player. That player will be informed at the start of the game that you are The Thing. You play as a Villager otherwise.
Werewolf - Before the game starts, you learn the Magic Word. You want to hinder the village from guessing the Magic Word, and/or hunt down the Seer. If the Mayor is the Seer, and the village guesses the Magic Word, you win by killing the Apprentice instead. But you don't want to be obvious; if the Village lynches you after they fail to guess the Magic Word in time, you lose.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Notes:
- The Day period for figuring out the Magic Word will be 72 hours, unless the word is guessed or the Mayor runs out of Yes/No answers before then.
- The Night period for players voting who to lynch would be 24 hours. The Night period for wolves to select kills would be 24 hours, or once each wolf selects a kill, whichever come first.
- The Mayor can have any other role: Villager, Seer, Apprentice, The Thing, or Werewolf. A Seer Mayor would have access to slightly easier Magic Words, and a Wolf Mayor would have access to harder Magic Words.
- All questions to the Mayor must use Vote tags to be answered by the Mayor, for visibility. The Mayor must answer all questions in Vote tags.
- The total list of Answers that the Mayor can use are as follows:
- The Mayor is allowed to post a record of all asked and answered questions, as well as a count of how many answers he has remaining, as long as no additional information is included in that post.
- The Magic Word can consist of multiple words. Some examples of that are “Hot Dog” or “Conan the Barbarian”.
- Any player may ask any question. So even a Seer or Werewolf can make the final correct guess of the Magic Word.
- There is no private communication for the wolves. They know who each other are, but are not provided a QuickTopic or permitted to strategize over PM.
- Posts may not be edited for any reason.

Gameplay structure:
- One player volunteers or is randomly selected to be the mayor.
- All players are randomly assigned the role of villager, seer, or werewolf (supplementary roles will be added at high player counts).
- The mayor will look at 5 possible "magic words", and select one for use this game.
- The seer will get to view the magic word. They will want to stealthily guide the rest of the villagers to the magic word.
- The wolf(s) will get to view the magic word. They will want to stealthily confuse the villagers to prevent them from guessing the magic word.
- The players will then start asking the mayor questions to try and figure out the magic word.
- The mayor is not allowed to talk freely, and only has a limited amount of specific answers that he can use to answer questions. He can only say "Yes", "No", "Maybe", "So Close", "Way Way Off", or "Correct".
- The magic word is revealed, and the players discuss who the wolf might be and secretly vote for a lynch. The mayor is allowed to talk as normal and vote as well in this phase. In case of a tie in votes, all tied players are lynched. If a werewolf is lynched, the village wins. Otherwise, the werewolves win.
- The werewolves are revealed, and they discuss who the seer might be, and all choose a villager to kill. If the mayor is not the seer and the seer is killed, or if the mayor is the seer and the apprentice is killed, the wolves win. Otherwise, the village wins.
