Welcome back, Not! I have put you on the replacement list for Zelda Mafia so if a spot opens up I will let you know. You'll be 2nd on the list since Terrabyte gets priority because he didn't play in Season 7 and since Fat4All made it to the end of his Season 7 game without dying ( and you subbed out early on in Pop ) you will have priority over him.

I BRING YOU THE FUTURE.

As your friendly neighbourhood Crab, I am attempting to shake up GAFIA by changing one of the core rules of most GAFIA games to date: how Day Phases work. This will be by introducing DYNAMIC DAY PHASES.

HOWEVER

I want to make sure that y'all are up for that shit. And so...

YOU, ME, SURVEY, NOW.

This goes over the idea, and asks you a few questions about what you think. This is your chance to shape the future. If you have five minutes, please fill it out!

If you have any substantive comments, feel free to chat about them here. I want to make sure this goes as smoothly as possible.

To expand and build on Crab's post, the following are the results from Season 7 Survey:


  • Most people enjoyed Season 7 (91%)
  • Most people were happy with the balance (96%)
  • Most people were in love with their GMs (98%)
  • Most people would return in Season 8 (67%)

Additionally, on phases and activity levels...

  • Most people opted for 3/2 as their ideal phases (71%)
  • More than half wanted every player to at least post once every 24 hours (56%)
  • Around half thought 15-20 people game is the ideal game size (47%)
  • And a lot of players thought their activity levels were medium to high (chart below):

In total, 45 answered the quantitative survey and 25 answered the qualitative one.

From the qualitative survey...


  • Most seemed to enjoy the role assigned to them. A few said they were relieved they rolled vanilla town as their first mafia role since they didn't know how to play. Another few said they were intimidated to have rolled scum but that their teams proved the experience to be quite enjoyable.
  • Most newcomers felt there was enough guidance and that they were able to figure the game out by the end.
  • And to re-chime Crab's point: A LOT complained about the long day phases and the abysmal activity levels in some of the games.

Finally, MVP nominations were asked and I can announce that acohrs has won the MVP award with 4 nominations to his name! CONGRATULATIONS ACOHRS!!!


  • Runner-Ups: Batsnacks and 11037 (each with 3 nominations)
  • Honourable Mentions: Fat4all and Natiko (each with 2 nominations)

(Newbies swept your hearts! Only Batsnacks representing from the veterans' side!)

I already responded to the new questionnaire but I'll go ahead and say that I'm excited to see how a game like that goes, whether as a participant or a spectator.

Also thanks to whoever nominated me, but I think acohrs deserves the nod for sure. Congrats acohrs!

Now back to my hole until the current game is over.

Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you to the Academy for this—all 6,000 members. Thank you to the other nominees. All these performances were impeccable in my opinion. I didn’t see a false note anywhere. I want to thank Jean-Marc Vallée, our director. Want to thank Jared Leto, Jennifer Garner, who I worked with daily.

There’s a few things, about three things to my account that I need each day. One of them is something to look up to, another is something to look forward to, and another is someone to chase. Now, first off, I want to thank God. ‘Cause that’s who I look up to. He has graced my life with opportunities that I know are not of my hand or any other human hand. He has shown me that it’s a scientific fact that gratitude reciprocates. In the words of the late Charlie Laughton, who said, “When you’ve got God, you got a friend. And that friend is you.”

To my family, that who and what I look forward to. To my father who, I know he’s up there right now with a big pot of gumbo. He’s got a lemon meringue pie over there. He’s probably in his underwear. And he’s got a cold can of Miller Lite and he’s dancing right now. To you, Dad, you taught me what it means to be a man. To my mother who’s here tonight, who taught me and my two older brothers… demanded that we respect ourselves. And what we in turn learned was that we were then better able to respect others. Thank you for that, Mama. To my wife, Camila, and my kids Levi, Vida and Mr. Stone, the courage and significance you give me every day I go out the door is unparalleled. You are the four people in my life that I want to make the most proud of me. Thank you.

And to my hero. That’s who I chase. Now when I was 15 years old, I had a very important person in my life come to me and say “who’s your hero?” And I said, “I don’t know, I gotta think about that. Give me a couple of weeks.” I come back two weeks later, this person comes up and says “who’s your hero?” I said, “I thought about it. You know who it is? It’s me in 10 years.” So I turned 25. Ten years later, that same person comes to me and says, “So, are you a hero?” And I was like, “not even close. No, no, no.” She said, “Why?” I said, “Because my hero’s me at 35.” So you see every day, every week, every month and every year of my life, my hero’s always 10 years away. I’m never gonna be my hero. I’m not gonna attain that. I know I’m not, and that’s just fine with me because that keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing.

So, to any of us, whatever those things are, whatever it is we look up to, whatever it is we look forward to, and whoever it is we’re chasing, to that I say, “Amen.” To that I say, “Alright, alright, alright.” To that I say “just keep living.” Thank you.


Thanks all!

The way I'm reading it it's kinda the opposite where only turbos lynch players.

I actually can't see the example again because it says I already took the survey. Crab should maybe quote it here perhaps?

Either way, I liked the explanation. It basically means day phases end when town comes to a true majority.

At the fictitious pharmaceutical lab, Lakeshore Pharmatech, the world's best and brightest minds are working to develop a cure to the deadly Araxia virus.

However, due to an outbreak in the containment area, the entire building has just been placed under Quarantine.

Equipped with nothing but their wits and their trusty Incinerator, the scientists must band together to stamp out the infection.

*Quarantine is NOT a cosplay game, and it is not based in any way shape or part on the Trauma Center game series. Just needed a cool shot of sciency looking people for the promotional footage.
