Mastermind Name: Masuno
Previous Mastermind Experience: I run Proto-Cognizance, which has since hit a standstill (regrettably fairly early, too), but I also did run one session over on DRG. But, nothing resembling the MMG system any closer than those two systems.
Why you want to be a Mastermind: Because it's FUN.
I'm serious. That, and there are a lot of ideas that run through this head of mine that 1. Don't really warrant the effort of a full game (or i might just want to hype one of my in-production games), and/or 2. Would infringe on copyright should I actually make them. So, I feel that instead of just letting those ideas rot and go to waste, I could instead use them over here, where they would be used and accepted well.

First Game Idea(optional): Now, you may notice that I have that whole Season Eternal Conflict thing going. I never did expect that to be my first game over here. Instead, I plan to run a Season Nostalgia. If you look at the top of the screen, what do you see? "Murder Mystery Games?" No, look higher than that. You should see: "drmmo.proboards.com," where DRMMO stands for, quite simply, Dangan Ronpa MMO. So, basically, I plan to run a season from MMG's roots. Set in Hope's Peak Academy, I hope that it will achieve a similar atmosphere to the original Danganronpa game. A battle between hope and despair. Stuff like that.
Now, to throw some curveballs, it won't be a carbon copy. The events leading up to the season, for example, will be different. The identity of the mastermind, of course, will be different. This will allow some material for the final trial. I plan to have a fairly unique mystery running using base MMG rules, and in the setting of Hope's Peak Academy, with a lot of mechanics outside of the general rules straight from Danganronpa, such as the beary (ugh) familiar School Regulations.
That's about it actually.

Desired Initial Mastermind Level: 1-Star, unless you feel I absolutely deserve 2 Stars. I honestly don't think I do. I think I should just be stuck with 1 Star until the end of my "Season Nostalgia" thing that I defined above.
