As some of you may know, I am a tremendous fan of the TV show, The Mole. The premise of the show is that a group of people are working together trying to complete tasks that add money to a pot that one of the contestants will win at the end of the show. The catch is that, secretly, one player is working to sabotage the tasks while remaining undercover.
The game consists of the players trying to add money to the group pot while simultaneously trying to figure out who is working against them. Periodically, the player that knows the least about who that player is is removed from the game in an "execution." Executions are basically just an elimination ceremony where the player who scored the lowest on a quiz about the "mole" is removed from the game.
At the end of the game, the mole is revealed and the winner is the one who knows the most about everything the mole has done throughout the whole season.
We have in the past played this game on FOFC. The thread where we played is here:
The FOFC Mole Official Thread - Front Office Football Central (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=66903)
There are lots of twists and surprises, along with some real fun. I have heard this is similar to a werewolf game, though I know absolutely nothing about that game. I would like to see if we can try a second season of the game. I am happy to host again if everyone wants, or if there is someone that wants to give that a try, I'm open to that. I think most people enjoyed my hosting and I would repeat the effort I put in last time.
Last time out, we had 8 players and it was fine. This time, I would like at least that many to play. I think the game works great with anywhere from 8 to 14 players. If more want to play, we could make a concession like have some double-elimination executions at the beginning or something.
Anyway, if you are interested in playing season 2 of The FOFC Mole, please indicate your interest in this thread. If you are unsure of how the game would work, you can either ask questions in this thread or you can check out the link to season 1 to see how things worked in that season. Season 2 would be pretty similar, but with new tasks and new twists. You will find, if I host, that I can be pretty devious with hiding hints about who the mole is. If you like dissecting things, you might enjoy that part of the game.
