If me asking at least gets some attention over here so a solicitation is made, that's probably fine.

Well, do you think the smallish Mafia community really warrants a mod? I posit that if our new mod stays relatively hands off and is willing to change tags and stuff for us when asked, then things can continue on as usual. Our community isn't very demanding from a moderation standpoint, but adding an extra mod always runs the risk of adding a bad mod that can gently caress a forum up.

e: This is an open question.

Meinberg: Oct 9, 2011; inspired by but legally distinct from CATS (2019)

I think I'm going to throw together a 13 player experimental game. This is different from the earlier idea I had, which is still in development.

If anyone is interested in taking a look at my setup and telling me how dumb I am, please send me a PM.

_{_{Also, I'd be a great Trad Games mod, because I have tons of free time and am a huge nerd.}}

I would be happy to look at your setup. I also needed a second set of eyes on a weird setup if you wanna trade.

Lumpen: Apr 2, 2004; I'd been happy, and I was happy still. For all to be accomplished,
for me to feel less lonely,
all that remained to hope
was that on the day of my execution
there should be a huge crowd of spectators and that they should
greet me with howls of execration.; Plaster Town Cop

I would not be a good fit for the job. The rules are too subjective and I would be loathe to probate anyone or close/gas threads. That's like enforced lurking, and I'm all about never not posting. I believe in the possibility of content in even the shittiest shitposter's next post.

No mods no kings only Ron Paul.

That is very apt. But yeah really, we're pretty good about self policing, it's really rare that we need to involve mods as is. I think the only time it really comes up if someone forgets a tag when the open their game

My favorite game was the game bowmore ran way back in the day where every day you could enter a room then investigate an object in the room and possibly get an item. I found a ray-gun that I attempted to use on dhaes and it backfired and I believe turned me into a cockroach that subsequently got stepped on.

the one we live in now

I made a Friesland setup!! It's pretty ok. It's a game for 25 players, so I'll open it in a week once things have died down a bit.

So keep that under your hats everyone! Big Ecco Game on the way, choo choo.

That was really my finest moment in a mafia game ever, and it wasn't even me.

Edit: Also what the gently caress with merk asking to be a mod or whatever or anyone actually thinking that mafia needs a mod?

Just make a large game queue, and it'll take care of itself.

Yeah, it's still okay for now.

I didn't even consider mass roleclaiming to be an issue here because it's never been an issue before. Removing role groups and setup displays will help with that.
