===What's the difference between an "Open" and "Closed" setup?===
An <b>Open Setup</b> is a setup in which the players know all the roles and mechanics present in the game they are playing. A <b>Closed Setup</b> is a setup in which the players do not have this information.
The roles in a closed setup are chosen before the game starts by a [[Moderator]], and are oft reviewed by peers for balance. Moderators tend to vary which roles they utilise and how as to refrain from being predictable. At present, the MafiaWiki only documents open setups. Running an open setup as closed is theoretically possible, but normally a bad idea due to various balance reasons.
You may notice we also have a third type of setup on the wiki however: <b>Semi-Open Setups</b>. These are setups in which the players know that certain specific roles may be in the game, but not which ones their game contains.
===How are the setups sorted on this wiki?===
As you can see, on the of this page there is an expandable navigation bar; click on it.
In general setups you find all setups on the wiki, they are organised by size and other sub-categories which are explained on that page.
Open setups is where all setup which are made to be run in the [[Central Park|open game queue]]. For more information on how they are sorted please see that page.
Another thing to note is that the setups are not sorted by alphabetical order, they are sorted by size; "2" means the setup is for 2 players and "26" means 26 players. For more information see: [[Setups Sorting System]].

The Setups Portal:
A setup is a combination of Power Roles and/or mechanics used in a game of Mafia. Each setup brings it's own strategies and approaches, allowing players to tailor the game to their tastes. The almost endless amount of possibilities is one of the things that makes Mafia such a unique game. In this portal you will find a large collection of setups, ready to be used for your own purposes.

There are currently 287 setups on the MafiaWiki.

F.A.Q.

What's the difference between an "Open" and "Closed" setup?

An Open Setup is a setup in which the players know all the roles and mechanics present in the game they are playing. A Closed Setup is a setup in which the players do not have this information. The roles in a closed setup are chosen before the game starts by a Moderator, and are oft reviewed by peers for balance. Moderators tend to vary which roles they utilise and how as to refrain from being predictable. At present, the MafiaWiki only documents open setups. Running an open setup as closed is theoretically possible, but normally a bad idea due to various balance reasons.

You may notice we also have a third type of setup on the wiki however: Semi-Open Setups. These are setups in which the players know that certain specific roles may be in the game, but not which ones their game contains.

How are the setups sorted on this wiki?

As you can see, on the of this page there is an expandable navigation bar; click on it. In general setups you find all setups on the wiki, they are organised by size and other sub-categories which are explained on that page. Open setups is where all setup which are made to be run in the open game queue. For more information on how they are sorted please see that page.

Another thing to note is that the setups are not sorted by alphabetical order, they are sorted by size; "2" means the setup is for 2 players and "26" means 26 players. For more information see: Setups Sorting System.
