A common statement I have heard is that "every people gets the leadership it deserves" and you got Trump the clown. What does this tell us about the American people?

I think more people just need to make accounts on mafiascum. Quite a good place for mafia, and that place sure can use some more big theme games

I think Brainbomb should have a special role. The role is called, "Immunity Role." The role basically means that Brainbomb can't die at night or be lynched.

That way Brainbomb can be guaranteed to be in the game for the entire duration and he can contribute copious amounts of pizza bets and add to the page length of the game so that we get a 500+ page game.

:D

If there is a spot in the actual game I would love to be in, but it seems like there are many others vying for the spots, if they are existent.

For the record, mafiascum doesn't come close to providing the same Mafia experience as webdip. Their day phases, and I kid you not, are 336 hours long.

Also Guak stop trying to steal my idea. But then again with how much you seem to read, you probably don't know it's stolen.
To clarify MoscowFleet's comment, mafiascum relies on the "hammer" mechanic, where the day ends as soon as a majority is reached. (called this because the person placing the deciding vote can be said to "drop the hammer" [think a gavel really] and sentence the person being voted to death)

I vastly prefer having set deadlines, they seem to improve the flow of the game pretty significantly. They do create an undue importance on end-of-day times though, so bear that in mind.
guak (3381 D)
17 Nov 16 UTC
@Moscow: I obviously didn't read any idea of yours. How can it be stealing if I did not know about it?

EoD franticness is the best part of the game though.
brainbomb (290 D)
18 Nov 16 UTC
yea but it kinda makes the other 47.5 hours meaningless when everyone only makes the big moves at EOD's. Why even have the phases be so long?

I'd say that you'd write a novel a phase, but novels are generally cohesive pieces of writing written with some purpose in a language.

I've come up with a great idea to revitalize the site and expand the fanbase.
It's called Webdip The Musical. It would be much more interesting than adding new maps or new features and might also allow people to rant about their political opinions in a way that's easier to ignore. I have contacted the mods and several have agreed to donate glitter.

Another potential idea is mafia the musical.

"Fog of War" rules?
Any reason "Fog of War" rules don't exist as a New Game option? You know, where you can see only the territories that border your units. So on the first round, England sees only as far as North Sea, Norwegian, English Channel, Irish Sea but does not see anything in France...

Trump breaks campaign promise to investigate Clinton
"Locking her up" was pretty central to Trump's campaign; two weeks after winning the election he's decided not to follow through. Are Trump supporters concerned about this? If not, why? And if he has already broken this promise (and others) then what faith do you have that he'll actually follow through on other promises?
