Not sure if this has been mentioned or not...
Back in one of the GL games (one of the newbie games, actually, now I think of it), I was a mason, and was of course quite vocal and such. We were getting close to an endgame, and all of the masons were still alive. I figured I would soon die, having been confirmed by a cop, so I came up with a very very random code scheme. Basically I coded the mason's names into bits of message, and posted them, sending the method of finding their names in them that night by email. That way, if I died, and one of them was close to being lynched, they could clear themselves without the others having to come out.
The Mafia could fake something, but then the masons would just come out and get him lynched, so it was pretty foolproof.
Of course, the Mafia never killed me, and we won easily.
