The story of a deep-space crew being attacked by doppleganger aliens. A game about an army recon team trying to find the traitors in their midst. Etcetera. Keep in mind that I'm only talking about lynch/death scene flavor and maybe generic role names (with measures taken to prevent them from affecting the game). I'm strictly suggesting original material, not themes based on pop-/sub-culture.
I love me some flavor. I totally agree with this part here. I plan on running my first Open in a Bakery scenario, (somewhat of an inside joke, read my wiki if you want to know), without changing roles or much wording.
This is also the reason that I plan to mod mostly theme games, because I love good flavor and normal games are too... 'normal' at times. >_>

(That is, I don't think it would necessarily affect gameplay to allow flavored PMs in Open games, but I do think it could lead to confusion, or annoyance on the part of those who want to ignore the flavor, so providing a translated version of the PM would be an inelegant option to solve that.)
While this wasn't meant for me, I'll keep it in mind. :D
