Mafia Discussion

The popular forum game that separates the good from the bad, the strong from the weak, and the loose-cannon cops from the slightly schizophrenic. That's all after we figure out who's who, of course.

This solely depends on the way you would word it, and player analysis is definitely a nice thing and surely new players have benefitted from the tips they were given.

While I can agree with that, I certainly am not the person to word things properly, so I feel like doing a player analysis wouldn't be beneficial with anything I host. I still stand on my opinion, so don't expect any player analysis from me in the future.

Hey everyone! Syndrilevosse and I were talking, and we think it'd probably be best if we delayed hosting for the same user for two games instead of just one starting with Mafia 37. As of now, we kind of have a cycle of the same people hosting games over and over, so we thought this could help diversify the hosting a bit more. Do people agree with this idea, or do you think we should keep it the way it is?

Yeah. Should give the chance for new hosts to host.

There's more effective ways to prevent host cycles. Maybe at some occasions (like, every 4 or 5 games) we should look over the previous polls and make the next sign-ups exclusive for those who barely got voted at all.

Those which barely get voted are barely voted because they're bad most of the time.

By time 4 or 5 games come around, some of those people may have passed up on Mafia already. The system we're employing will be more effective for our players alongside the hosts.

Of course you gotta ask them first if they want to participate. I mean, they created a game willing to host it at most four games ago, so chances are that you won't miss out many participants.

If you delay hosting of the same user for two games you'll still end up with the popular people being voted up over and over.

Considering I have been away from the forum for a week, when did the Mafia subforum get it's own forum?

Good that this happened and that the board index' aesthetic says the same.

SMBX.org also got archived. Mafia got its own forum to fill the empty space

That's kind of good but now there's a void in the Sandbox:

Well, it is easier to get used to it than the big empty space that once was SMBX.org forum.

Hoping that Mafia having its own subforum will attract more players since it's on the forum index now.
