Now go sign up and in a week you can post once a day for three months! Mafiascum the forum is never going to be a F2F mafia site.

I don't think it's false advertising if other types of mafia are focused on by the site. Like skype mafia has a decent popularity here, at least. Sure occasionally it goes without games for a while due to being difficult to organise but I wonder if more people were play if stuff like that was more visible (Not everyone visits GD)

The website looking nicer would be cool, the default skin is my preference at the moment as I find black hard to bear with for long and sepia looks fucking awful so an alternative to those would be cool.

In post 65, chamber wrote:What do you guys think about having the chat defaulting to on instead of off (in terms of hoping to increase user retention)? I think my graph clearly shows the bigger issue is just new players not showing up though. User retention seems decent.

I don't think it can do any harm. Having the chat on seems a better idea anyway, so newbies can actually find it straight away. *shrug*

Or just make it like more visible that we have a chatroom. It's in your user cp atm right? Which may escape the notice of quite a few.

In post 306, chamber wrote:What do we think of giving all games their own signup threads and increasing their visibility in some way?

Kind of messy, maybe.

It doesn't really work for newbies, right? How many individual sign up threads would there be then? A large/mini normal, 2 mini themes, 1 or 2 large themes some micros. It gives each game their own focus I suppose - which does work for Large Themes, but if you do it everyone it might just be cluttered.

In post 656, Junpei wrote:MoI and Regfan were two of the best players on this site, and they used structured arguments founded on good reasoning. Using well grounded reasoning and being able to differentiate between red herrings and truth = good mafia player.

MOI began to fake guilties in games towards the end of his time playing here! seems like he went off the deep end (rip tho' be nice to see him back)
