I could, I think.

Have you met the hosting requirements? I just want to make sure. :)

The reason I'd want a co-host is because I work with mums (plants) for a little bit of the summer, so in case I have to get up early or do something that wasn't planned then, I have somebody else to oversee the game.

@Oath: Yes, I know. I'm just curious.

Yes, I think I do.
 
Here is a list of things that go into hosting a game:
  • Choosing a set-up.
  • Making sure your roles are balanced
  • Preparing your flavor text, if you have it.
  • You may not be playing, but you have to read each post to answer host-questions.
  • If your game is no PM, you have to be in the IRC to make sure there aren't any discussions.
  • You have to keep up with all your QuickTopics, answering any host questions.
  • You have to make sure your inbox has plenty of extra space at all times.
  • If you have coaches, this adds to the work. You have to make sure that the coaches and trainees are compatible, you have to definitely keep up with their QuickTopics to make sure the host isn't all too
  • You absolutely have to update the first post.
  • Chances are, you'll spend an hour to an hour and a half each day and night maintaining all of this, depending on your game size.

I'm not trying to discourage people from hosting but I honestly think that people don't entirely know how much work goes into it.
 
Just wondering if I ever get to host in the future, is it a good idea to have an innocent child in a closed set up? Or no? I would announce they were one, but that was it. Or I would let them choose to reveal themselves whenever and I would confirm it.

I think the only set-up that an Innocent Child can potentially work in, without being too over-powered for town side is the closed set-up.

My game is not quite ready to open for sign-ups for as the Mean Girls game ended so abruptly. I just need a bit more time to tweak some roles and make sure things are as balanced as possible. Sign-ups will be open tomorrow evening. :)

This. Open-setup is a "no," as we have seen from Bird Mafia. You could possibly make it work in semi-open, but people still like to estimate the amount of Blues.

Watch Newbie Mafia II and see how it works. It's a semi-open, no PM, with a confirmed townie.

There are no open slots. Superpenguin already applied.
 
To prove how hard mafia hosts are, keep an eye out at the end of my game. There will be something revealed :)
 
After purpls train wreck we should develop an age limit.

I agree.

Then again, I just generally hate main Mafia games. Too many people.

Speaking of Mafia, I'd like to request a reservation in both Oath and Tina's games if possible.
