Sorry for taking this long to respond, Mets. The reason is that, by the time the game ended, I was kind of completely sick of modding and Mafia.
I hasten to ephasize that it had nothing to do with you guys, you were all great. It is just that from the start of this game I kept having RL problems that kept taking the fun out of modding. Let me share my tale of woe:
1) I have MASSIVELY underestimated the time needed to write, format, find the right pic and send out all the roles. I murkily remeber wanting to do something els once I'm done, so when the process stretched from 45 minutes (which was insanely optimistic) to 3 fucking hours, I was in a dark dark mood by the time I ended. Also, I was tired and half-crazed so that's how all the PM-mistakes happened.
2) During Night 1, entirely through my own doing, I was having MASSIVE hardware problems that, for a while, made doing anything on my PC both a chore and endlessly frustrating. (Blue Screens of Death. Over and over. For days). Also, calculating the results of Night actions was really complicated, which I would probably mind a lot less were I not both frustrated and depressed by the possibility that I wrecked my rig (I'm pleased to report that I haven't.)
3) The main reason why I got back to mafia in the first place was the possibility of playing it away from home on my tablet. However, as I started learning by the beginning of Fall 2016.,
PRESTIGIO TABLETS ARE JUNK. After taking the first one to be serviced for the same problem 4 times, PRESTIGIO kindly refused to give me a refund and replaced it with a newer model (yay!

) the battery of which stopped charging after 2 months (booo!

). This forced me do the modding in time that I had previously earmarked for other things and that made me a sad grumpy Mandy.
--------------------------
All that being said, I thank you kindly for your offer, but I don't think that I have it in me to mod another Pokemon game, because I'm not really into Pokemon. The original reason for modding this one was to explore the Mafia/RPG format and then it became about trying to convince as many players from what is for me the Golden Age of CC Mafia to come back for one last hurrah (and great it was to see them all) and pit them against the new players (which was interesting, except for Nark-Wing part, which was awesome

).
If I do mod another game, it will either be some completely new theme or an attempt to fix New Jedi Order Mafia (which I would love to do given time and 30ish serious players, which might be a problem

).
