Edit: instant mafia is the setup

It's a pretty good setup for training and having a short game. It however isn't fully representative of FM (game's lenght, basically nightless, no flip or vote count analysis). Still a good one to host relatively often, though.

Someone who plays FM for the first or second time, I'd say?

Insert shameless advertisement for La Cosa Nostra, my setup, here
Throwing a suggestion out there, tell me if you like it.
Some hosts could explicitely state they accept mentors in their games. Mentors could help a new player get into the game. They obviously wouldn't be playing, and would know all the info their pupil knows, including his role. They could talk to the pupil privately about anything, but never post anything publicly. They would have to be approved privately by both the host and the pupil before officially being mentors in the game; they would need to have a good knowledge of the game, of the FM rules and of the setup. The info about mentor-pupil pairings approved by the Host would be publicly available.
Re: Setup Discussion for Starter Game.
I will ask them if they want simple game (Sheriff,Doc,Mafioso,Consort n Citizens.
A Taste of Sc2Mafia 1.0 i previously hosted (With most likely re-addressed the setup)
Or a taste of The Smiths.
That way they can either go simple/Familiar/Different
And I would ask the signees what they want,
