For example, with the vote stealing mechanic that the first game had, the mafioso would use the night to decide who to steal votes from in the next day. But for this case, the mafioso would send that action during the day, so the votes would be stolen in the following day.

I say go with this.

The speed game queue is pretty flexible, too, hosts can swap the order of their games if they agree to it and then inform S~V~S and llama. I've let others host before me, especially if I was too busy or they were a new host. The full game queue technically can work that way as well, since obviously schedules can change, but it doesn't happen quite as often.

My bad, I didn't fully explain how the submission process works.

Full game submissions happen during a couple of week period on an annual basis (well, it was designed to be that way, but we had a TON of submissions this last time), after which all the members vote on the games they want to play in the poll, and the games are then hosted in the order of most votes received to least votes received. Then repeat.

Speed game submissions are played in order of submission. There is no poll. This was largely because, when the site first started, we were uncertain how much demand there would be for the smaller games. So we didn't want to unnecessarily complicate matters by having two separate poll submission periods, when we thought we might have periods where smaller games wouldn't occur. Turns out there never has been any such lull or lack of demand for speed games.

YES!

So glad you posted this. I can't wait. Should be wild.

What if you give the NK to the civilians? Have them vote on a player to die via PM, player with the most votes dies? I'll keep thinking.

Regarding the submission process, if you make this game 19 players or less, you can submit it to the Speed Queue by PMing S~V~S and llama. If you want to make it 20+, unfortunately you just missed out on the Full Game submission process, and the queue was gigantic (so many great hosts, so many great games), so you'd have to wait until we get through the upcoming games, so I'm not sure I'd recommend this route, unless you're willing to wait quite a while.
