Please whoever makes the next game, make it simple and straight forward again.
Anyway no-one seems interested in this game anymore.

Simple and straight-forward is not what gets people interested in the games.
People simply have shit to do. A lot of players live in the UK or in "Other", and a lot live in the states. This poses the problem of having people on at the same time to have discussion. On top of the time difference, a lot of us work, so it's hard to sync up online time.
I already said on the last page that until I receive a PM from people who got dragonballs (the second time/the updated time), nobody will be sent dragonballs. I know about 4 people from the second time, but there were 4 balls that I distributed at random, and I don't know who those went to.
That's pretty simple and straightforward. And it's shocking that I've only received pms from 2 people.
The game is not too complicated. For example, powering-up. Powering-up is a way to both keep the game balanced, and make people play to survive. I'll let you guys in on a secret, piccolo's powerup was a 4-day requirement (probably should have been 3 day), but if he survives till night 5, he kills a random MAFIA. That is one of the more powerful ones, but the "over-complication" that I think you're referring to, is done to give people something to make them feel like they're contributing even when they don't know what to do.
The wishes is a similar aspect. If you're willing to put in the time, it's a whole 'nother aspect of the game to play. You get bored with scum hunting? Fine, go dragonball hunting.
The problem isn't that there isn't anything to do, or that it's too complicated, the problem is that you guys have no spirit. You know, when I play, I contribute 100 posts by myself. So far we have Homer (who may be getting replaced), radish, kamal, nensuer, etc etc etc just lurking; ie posting less than 30 times each in a roughly 1200 post game. I think I may have even posted more than some players here.
Anyways, just have fun. Think up theories. Go back and read all the posts and discover tone and playstyle. Make your vote, and try to make a convincing argument to get people to vote your way.
Accuse people, push and poke people. This is what makes mafia fun.
