How to play Russia in Gunboat
Title. I suck at Russia in gunboat. I have no clue what high level strategy I should be going for. I just always die after accomplishing virtually nothing.

Rhyme Time II
I'm looking for a few good word magicians. Give me your nobles, your humble and fancy patricians. I need 7 players to commit to a time; to play an unranked press game whose objective is rhyme.

Lizard People Control Trump!!!!!
CNN has just reported that some people saw lizard people talking to Trump in the White House today. This confirms that we Americans are oppressed and should go riot somewhere. Maybe crash a few windows and raid while we are at it.

Completely Anon Game.
Hey, a player wanted me to advertise a completely anon game. Here is the link: http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=191149

I'm not playing obviously because it's completely anon. If you join, please do NOT post here or anywhere that you've joined. I'll periodically bump this thread until it fills.

Feature request: expand mod powers
I've noticed that a lot of people have been having issues with mod's decisions lately and I think the forum would be a better place if the mods/ admins had the powers to do more than just ban a user and if they were allowed to, for example, also kill the user's family. Implementing a "-1 and ban" feature underneath the +1 feature may also be funny to watch. Thank you and I hope you take my ideas into consideration.

GMs have some freedom, jfc. The council of fake mafia lords doesn't really do that much other than skim a few things and make sure it isn't a total wreck of a game. That's why your setup got through, Jamie.

I object to the next game being started without a fundamental reconsideration of the "standard" ruleset.

We had some rules issues in the last game that a standardised ruling would resolve.

I'm serious that the next game is not ready to begin now.

I object to the next game being allowed to start.

I wasn't a perfect GM this last game, but fucking hell, I tried. I put hours of effort into looking after the game.

Jamiet99uk (808 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC
Seriously, starting the next game now is FAR too soon. A community debate, involving the "Council", is needed regarding several rules issues that arose in the last game.

It's premature to start a new game now.

@Jamie

Much like we approved your method of dealing with non-participation, we've approved DO's. We're happy to let people experiment and see which way works best for increasing participation there.


Autohammer is a feature on Mafia sites with longer days; and is utterly anathema to how Mafia is played on webDip. Making such a fundamental change wouldn't really keep with the culture of Mafia on webDip, and would make timezones a far bigger factor, too. As a result we do not agree on that being a solution.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC
My thinking is clear, thanks very much. The community has issues to discuss before the next game - there is no sense in rushing.

Mafiascum games are like 9-11 players. 20 player setups with auto end hammering is horrible. The gm would have to post vote counts every page
I have been threatened with undescribable physical and mental torture if I don't sign up, so I am signing up
brainbomb (290 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC
Not only that but some players on here like to vote early and post a real vote at or near EOD. Auto majority hammering would fundamentally change meta's
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC
There are multiple rule issues that would benefit from a clear consistent stance. Participation rules, for example. DO has stated that she wants to allow lurking - even if people join and then never post, they will be rewarded. Do we want this?

@ Brainbomb: DO is the queen of lurking and presumably this is why she will never modkill anyone, ever.

On what basis am I banned from participating? Did the Council approve this ban?
ND (879 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC
Unfortunately, I had to leave the game because I was sick. I never finished reading it, but if D1 is any indication of how Jamie GMed the rest of the game then I don't want to read it lol. Pretty unheard of to have a GM just impose himself into a conversation with out a ##call.

I am going to take a break from mafia for a bit though so I am not signing up. I don't like having to use an outside app to check counts and I think that should be banned. GM needs to do that not some app.

Also a system and rules need to be in place to prevent GM's from engaging in conversations like Jamie did. That ruins the game really.

Just my thoughts

If I host an anonymous game, can I advertise it on the forum? It's not technically against the rules, but some might find it undesirable to know anything about who's in the game.

Feature request: time clock location
It would be really nice to have the countdown clock right above the order menu. That way one wouldn't have to scroll up to see how many precious seconds are left (wasting precious seconds). Would be pretty useful toward the end of the 5-minute 1v1's in which there are a lot of orders to fill.
