I do think these are the most likely to draw in new players.

Feel free to keep suggesting. I haven't decided yet.

Friends, I received a warning last night via spider messenger about some potential dangers in using Discord.

this is a message i got from another discord i'm a part of. There's a message doing the rounds just now about a group of malicious users who are joining publicly accessible Discord servers and mass-DMing users with child pornography. There's a workaround to avoid getting messages from people who aren't added as friends but I'm unsure if a lot of people are aware of it - might I suggest pinning a note somewhere about it so that people can avoid ending up in a potentially fucked up situation as a result? essentially for each publicly accessible server you are a member of, you need to click the server name at the top left, go to privacy settings and untick the box that allows server members to PM you you'll still be able to receive DMs from people you have added as a friend, just adds an extra layer of security

This, unfortunately, is not the first I've heard of these Discord raiding parties. A couple of months ago, I quietly removed the Gafia Discord links from the main page of Outer Gafia. Later this morning I will be checking and cleaning most of the publicly accessible links. Meanwhile, I advise you to check out the settings mentioned above. I have not looked at them, but they seem like a good idea. I would ask that you consider adding me to your friends list, too.

So far, we haven't had any serious problems with Discord, and I'm going to fight to keep it that way.

Yeah...about that...........
 
Dunno if I've ever said this (probably not), but I'm glad we have you around to keep this ship in orbit, Retro

You and yeeny do good admin work

Soph too

and Ourob, I guess

And an encore shout-out to Royal_Flush for that vote tool magic, yeah?

Without you ppl, we'd still be manual on Quicktopic. Appreciate each other

Hey Sophia, I'll help out if you still need it?

Can I help out? I would love to see how the sausage is made.

Ahaha, I wasn't entirely serious. >_>;

Although I did come up with an idea that would probably scare Retro. :D


Psh, I hardly do anything but offer my opinion and make snarky comments. People like Retro, Ouro, Ynnny, Sorian, Royal, the other game runners, etc, are what really keep Gafia going.

I agree. Lots of awesome and helpful people here. I appreciate all the time you've all put in even in just the small period since I joined.

Screw you guys, I'm going home

Also does the P2 game involve people negotiating the entire game, no voting, and you have to grind out tarot cards

Here is the big secret: You know how people always think making a game is hard and takes a long time? Yeah...no. We just press a button on a giant machine and it spits out a theme and design. People here saying they want to run a game with a certain theme? Then they already pressed the button and know which theme they need to run, if they want to or not, because they are now bound with a blood pact to run it.

On a unrelated note, who is interested in...ehm....Care bears mafia! Yep, because I love Care bears! It's my favorite!

Yeah...about that...........

Okay, aside from the time that Discord went crazy and we had to ban Roy.

Bows. It is, as always, my pleasure to help. I love this community, but I don't have time to host games or play. (Maybe that will change in 2018? Who knows.) So for now I keep the machines running.

I realized last night that we are finally at the point where if I wanted to step away from the community, I probably could, because enough people understand the various systems that Gafia could go on without me. But don't worry, I'm not going anywhere.

Ahaha, I wasn't entirely serious. >_>;

I'm going to sit you in the corner with Crab and Kark.

You do more than you realize. Take your bow.

CRAZY? You mean AWESOME! I other Roy had SO MUCH POWER! It's too bad you had to seal me him away with the power of the 4 sages to prevent me him from ruling Gafia with my his unbelievable powers of being able to read every channel.

Just a heads up, something weird is going on with the Gafia Discord. Nothing I can do about it until Sunday at the earliest. In the meantime, I don't know... Have a gin, play some badminton. Just no kilts, please.

Happy April Fools Day!

What kind of monster plays Badminton after enjoying gin? That's like giving the carrot while readying a whip.

This might stir some noise.

I've been made aware that Mafia Universe is working on their yearly Mafia Championship Invitational. They have a list of communities in their setup thread, and we're on it, so I would guess that we'll be receiving another invitation.
Last year, we had players volunteer themselves as potential tributes, and then we held a vote. I am thinking we'll probably do the same this year.

Be warned - Mafia Universe is a much more serious group of players than we are, and the level of activity on overall play required is much, much higher than we expect. If you want to go, you might bring glory back to Gafia, but you will have to work for it.

Like I said, we haven't gotten an invite yet, but be thinking about it, and I'll let you know if/when I hear something.

I'm presumably a judge for their finals so I'd be surprised if we didn't get an invite. You're welcome everyone :p

Can you speak to the level of play that's required at Mafia Universe for us? Just so people have an idea what they may be getting into.
