mafia to me is a lot harder to play when there's a ton of bells and whistles attached to every post
it was bearable before because the site was otherwise really plain and familiar, but I really don't think I would be able to keep my focus on a game on it the way it is, I'm sorry
it was hard enough as it is on the ToL forums and that was before the endless spam since it was essentially a forum/instant messaging hybrid
Probably because if we remove this topic, the mafia subforum isn't used since 1 year
it's very inactive tho
I am still waiting until we resume games again.
the forum layout is very hard to play mafia in

RIP abraker's mafia game
I'd get overgamed if i play this now.
Should've gotten enough people earlier.

I will join.
Added. I think that's enough people, but more can always join in the game thread before it begins. Game thread itself will be up in the next week or two (likely 3-4 days after OT!Execution Chapter 3 releases).

Tally so far:
- abraker
- K0j
- Tad Fibonacci
- Penguin
- samX500
- Kyomaku
- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
- Sakura
- Ashton
- birdy
- Amianki
Im not overgamed anymore so i guess i can.
I think we have enough people now.
K0j, Penguin, Kyomaku might have changed status since, we could technically be down to 7 people
send out some feelers to make sure people are still up for it
btw do we really have to play with this awful layout?

you can use the old one with old.ppy.sh

Is this ever going to happen?
Maybe i should stop refreshing these forums.
Seems like this is never happening in the end.
Guess osu!mafia is dead at this point.

Well the window I was planning for has passed. We'll try for winter break.
I regret participating in the mafia championship. I was really reluctant to go for anything mafia related after that. Too overkill.

Looks like oldppysh doesn't work on forums anymore
I'm no longer interested if that is the case, sorry

Peppy killed the old site. And with it, people's interest in abraker's Mafia game.
Yeah with this style i doubt i'll play.
I get that the new site isn't as good as the old one, I am anoyed by it's removal as well. But how does the style change the game of mafia?
All that said, I know some people are making a stylesheet to reproduce the old site so by the time the game starts you should be able to play with the old style.

so double posting is back. All is left is to get Katoumegumi's webskin so this feels more like the old forums and I think we might be good to go.
what about the new forums makes Mafia hard to play? if there are issues here, they might be relevant to all forums.
A lot of older folks play mafia and are used to old design.
Also infinite scrolling is intimidating on threads with hundreds of posts. It blurs all the posts into a never ending stream. It makes harder to navigate to specific posts you are not sure the location of. With pages you could roughly guesstimate what page the post occurred on based on maybe a 4-6 page range you think it can be on, and you can find it a bit faster because you vaguely remember it's either around top, middle, or bottom of page. With infinite scrolling, if it's post 367 out of 500+ you prob going to aim for the 300's ballpark. You better hope you don't tirelessly scroll past it or you either need to check 100 posts again or start doubting whether it's really a 300's post.
Also is there a way to filter by all posts a user made in a thread? There was this feature on old forums, albeit via crafted url.
It would also help if you can limit post search to a specific thread in addition to user.

mafias definitely getting removed soon lmao
we can still revive
How many player do we have right now, Is it still 11 as in the last edit? If so we might want to start the game right now since we are in quarentine. I know 11 player is not ideal but if we can't get the game going in a quarentine I don't think we will ever do it.
I think it's more like 6 now. I expect half not to be available anymore or lost interest

Man, I've always wanted to play Mafia, but the Starmen.net forums haven't put one on for at least a year. Maybe the mods on this forum could put on a nice one for beginners I can jump on. I think I know the rules reasonably well enough to play...
I applied for a game of mafia like a year ago and it has still not happened. Some people have been waiting for even longer than me.
i wanna apply too
i love these kinds of games. i spent like 150 hours playing town of salem

I got really lucky that I was actually active in OT when we had that one game a year or two ago. People just don't seem interested in actually putting in the effort to play a game of mafia. Would rather post once every few hours to get necro points.
Mafia is already dead when I got here.
maybe we can revive one day.YyottaCat wrote:

Just an advice, don't say that in France. Trust me. Everyone plays or played this. Oh and yeah it's called werewolf (loup-garou), not mafia.ClevelandsMyBro wrote:

Yes
Last game ended so time to talk what's next. I know igor has an exotic setup he wants to try, and Sakura was mentioning of a game a month back (community/forums/posts/8224845).
i don't mind if we play sakura's game first
where is sakura?
/summon
/summon
I was sleeping
There didnt see to be much interest in a mountainous game so i'll just Host a Normal instead for a change. It'd take far longer to design a theme.
Because people don't have common sense I have added the following to the rules
Do NOT post in on-going game threads you are not participating or are actively dead in.

- When an elimination has ocurred before the end of the day, the game enters twilight phase, during this time all players including the eliminated one may continue to post until I post the death scene and end the day, from then on the eliminated player is considered dead and cannot post.
- , but i allow a single contentless Bah post.
single and only from the dead player
Seriously it's disrespectful to post in threads you're not a part of or no longer a part of (due to dying or replacing out). If the bah post thing is what's making ppl post i'll happily take it out.
thank you abraker. it was getting really annoying and confusing having random people chime in.abraker wrote:

Did this place die again
Well my Upick was super townsided and scum still managed a flawless win, but yes I can see how town is "too braindead".
yea new peeps dont seem to have the critical thinking skills older folks have
yeah, I meant to say that games are mafia sided because town is braindeadSakura wrote:

Pretty sure there's a thread about it made by GIF a long time ago.
I also linked some guides from MafiaScum on some games I played here.

Just at least trying to think is more than enough
you're never going to get better at playing town if you never even try

If it was straight up accessible from the main forums then there would probably be more people.
that's a pretty good ideaYyottaCat wrote:

We should host a new one since the new fags would probably be interested
I think I would give it a try. Not sure whether the newly made-up prodding rules work, though.
