Our forum games community
« on: November 08, 2012, 06:36:16 am »

It is nice to know that this community is more than just a group of people who play mafia, but more of a network of friends who play mafia.
I've been meaning to make a thread about this for a while now. It might be because lately I've spent more time than before with my friends in real life, and started to realize this community has definitely become a part of my social circle (of friends?). Mafia is a game that can easily get heated, even personal in some cases. In game we continuously appeal to emotion while lying and deceiving (as mafia), or make mistakes that feel unfair and upsetting to our team mates (as town). These games are also a ridiculous time sink and sometimes rereading to form better reads feels like an actual work. But man oh man have we formed an incredible community here. Lately I've sometimes found myself less interested in the actual playing of mafia. I doubt I'd join a game now if I didn't know anyone. But I can wholeheartedly say I think each and every one of you is pretty cool, and would like to thank you for making playing these silly games such a fun hobby. I don't write long neat speeches so good, and this seems to have become quite the rant, but the point was to show my appreciation for having the chance to be a part of a cool group of people like this. Never thought this could become this important of a hobby when joining my first game! Also a special thanks for guys who moderate games for us to play, there wouldnt be a community without you.

Agreed. You guys are awesome. I really could not have imagined how much fun I'd have with this game. I especially blame thank yuma for running newbie game MX, in which I got my start and first learned the simple joy of a D1 Robz lynch.

I both love and hate forum mafia, as I believe it has robbed me of a good deal of free time I could have spent cultivating a hobby or courting a lady or something.

Mine puts up with me. I've really no idea how. I mean, I'm gone 3/4 time traveling anyway (that will die down SIGNIFICANTLY now), and when I'm home, I'm sleeping, eating, or playing Mafia.

I make sure I join games there with people I enjoy playing with, so it's similar to here for me.  I like that people are a lot less active there.


That said I love playing with absolutely everyone here! (Except for that fraker Axxle2)
