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.

Let's calm things down a bit in this thread, please.

As a council member I am announcing that we've decided to make it official policy that a player modkilled in a mafia game without requesting replacement will not be allowed to play in the following game, unless either the GM of that game or the GM of the following game requests otherwise (namely, if they believe there to have been extenuating circumstances or that the modkill was unjustified).

Secondly, while individual GMs could potentially implement auto-hammer for their game, the council will always strongly recommend against it and attempt to get the GM to reconsider. After discussion, we've come to the conclusion that auto-hammer makes timezones, and being able to be online at all hours, far too much of an issue and puts users in unusual timezones or with long work hours at too much of a disadvantage.

Finally, a standard set of rules for post requirements will never be set in stone by the Council, and the GMs can alter these as they wish, although if we think that they are excessively harsh or lax, we will inform the GM of this. In this case, DemonOverlord is implementing a slightly more relaxed version of the participation rules, in which a post requirement is still present but replacement will always be prioritised over modkill, and in the event that replacement is not possible, attempting to get the initial player to continue participation will be prioritised, with modkill being used as a last resort.

Also, player bans need to go through the Council before being issued by a GM. That was not the case here.

If the council has bizarre rules that they're enforcing on GMs, it would be nice if they were written down somewhere so I could refer to them.

There's nothing bizarre about not letting you be a dictator who can just ban people you don't like.

3) I did nothing to gold's family.

Jesus guys. Jamie and I had a few legitimate things we thought would be worth discussing. I don't see why a sign up thread should stop those discussions, but I also don't see why everyone is so up their own asses
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
24 Jan 17 UTC
Mainly:
1. Jamie wanted to talk about autohammer (I thought it sounded like a cool experiment, but I've never played at mafiascum. They always seemed stuck up).
2. Standardizing some basic roles like Doctor, Cop, etc., or at least providing a more strict screening to catch discrepancies like we had with the doctor this past game.
3. There were more but I forgot
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
24 Jan 17 UTC

For someone who was a constant crybaby to the GM throughout the whole of the last game it's hilarious DO would try to shut down any discussion about the very rules she was objecting to. FFS.

I'm tentatively interested in this, but I'm fairly new to mafia (did some small games on a discord and followed the last mafia game here in and out) and not sure if my learning on the spot would cause issues (also you guys seem pretty familiar with each other).

Every game has detractors, and dissenters. Dont let a few opinions overwhelm your quality. Its not an indictment of you anyway.

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.
