Chat mafia
Much faster-paced than Forum Mafia, games in chat may be played by as few as 3-5 players, and may run from start to finish in an hour or two, rather than days or weeks!
Scumchat
While MafiaScum has a built-in chatroom, most people prefer to go to the AOL Instant Messenger chatroom #scumchat these days, due to better functionality. This is where impromptu mafia games are occasianally played, but more often ScumChat is used as a place for Scummers to discuss anything and everything, including, but not limited to Mafia Theory, Reality Shows, and the Harry Potter series.
You can access scumchat via the link at the bottom of the Forums that reads "Click to join AIM Chat", or by copying aim:gochat?roomname=ScumChat&Exchange=5 into your browser's address bar (Firefox or Internet Explorer). AOL Instant Messenger or a similar client (Pidgin, Trillian) is required.
IRC
Several IRC channels exist for playing Mafia; some have 'bots' moderating the game, others are run by actual people:
