Worstgen Mafia Game Types
There are 5 game types under the Worstgen Mafia Umbrella. The purpose of this thread is to explain what those 5 types are and the steps to take in order to host them.
Turbo -

This is a fast-paced mafia game, generally having at most 30-minute cycles(e.g. 20-minute day/10-minute night). Anybody is free to host a turbo game whenever they'd like. You do not need a coach to assist you either.

Light Games -

The main component of a light game is vanilla. At least 2/3s of the roles should be vanilla, meaning, they have no ability(passive or active) to use. Only a few select roles do. They are fairly simple to host and understand. These games tend to be more laid-back and have a heavy focus on reads and game-solving.

Salem of Lies -

A unique aspect of this game type is the set of fixed roles to be used. Town of Salem and Throne of Lies each have their own role guide where setups incorporate those roles and ONLY those roles. You cannot create new roles or mechanics for this game. These games are OUTSIDE of the traditional mafia calendar and have their own. It will also have its own coach and set of approved hosts. An approved host for Salem of Lies is not the same as an approved host for traditional mafia games.
Role Madness -

Easily the most popular game type for in this setup, every single role has an ability. There's no such thing as vanilla in role madness. Mechanics are also common within these games but not required. It is strongly recommended for a new host to take it easy when hosting their first role madness game as going overboard can leave you overwhelmed, highly stressed, and completely deprived of energy. It takes experience to become good at hosting role madness games.

Assassin Games -
This is a similar concept of mafia that incorporates a lot more of an 'RPG' element. To have a fuller understanding of Assassin Games, visit this guide.

Super Role Madness -

By far the hardest and most complicated game type to host. Stress levels will be at an all-time high for the host and the threshold of mistakes increases. Before one can even host a super role madness game, they must be an approved host. A user cannot have SRM be their first-ever mafia game hosted for this community. Once the user becomes an approved host, they will need to have a coach with them to host the game. So yes, even an approved host will need a coach to be allowed to host an SRM. That's how complex such a game is.
If you are an excited new host who would like to learn how to create a role then visit the Role Creation guide where I explain in detail the elements that go into creating a role. Make sure to also check out the Game Setup Archive where several hosts have shared their setups to be seen.
