I had this idea for a multiplayer LP series for 3+ players. Since I do not create LPs, nor do I plan to, I'll just leave it here so if any LPer cares they can use it.
The idea is basically this - a team of Factorians have a mission, while one is secretly a mole. For this it is required that there will be at least 3 players, and some sort of mission - say - get to rocket defense in <10 hours (or anything else, really. Something challenging, but not really hard). All of the players work towards that goal together, but one (chosen randomly before the LP starts) is a mole, secretly sabotaging the efforts. He (or she) has to be careful to do it while the others aren't looking, as if all other players vote that he is indeed the mole - he will be uncovered, and the mission regarded as won. If, however, all players agree that someone is the mole which isn't - they instantly lose, so having such an agreement should not be made light-headed.
Of course, this requires discipline - players must not watch eachothers videos (except for the mole, which is allowed to watch all videos), and the crowd's cooperation would also be needed, so as to not spoil the challenge.
As for picking who is the mole - it could be as simple as choosing some outsider to pick randomly.
All in all it probably won't be easy to manage, but I think it has some entertainment value.

I smell a hydra, though that wasn't intentional...

Re: Multiplayer LP series idea
Well, this is an interesting idea, it certainly fits my style of multiplayer(trolling all the way >=D)
I think it could use some fine tuning, perhaps there could be a new mole every episode and they guess at the end of the episode who the mole is? Also some score based system, so the player that gets away with being the mole the most is the winner in the end? That sounds more interesting to me, and would be easier to manage as well. Just an idea.
