mm. The one that ghost pointed out (LI) I subbed into as a total newb (like my 1st or 2nd game after my newbie game) and it was pretty amazing actually.

[post-limit mini/normal] queue type incoming?

Options are good, yo. Spammy games have their demand so let's try not to abolish them.

I just think it would be helpful to have a queue type to appeal to those who have less time to play per day than some of us more enthusiastic players and what better way to get new players involved than to have that type of game broadcast in-your-face with a game type and available at-a-glance? Foolishness; get on it, brotherman.

Like, I'm not saying that all other games won't have the limit, just have a sort of semi-hardcore category with posting limits so that people can't say/think "I don't think I'll have time to read 40 pages per day". Or at least something leading in that direction? What do you guys think about that?

nobody is stopping anyone from doing that. If a host wants to host it like that they should.

you can even have an inbetween were there are no restrictions but something like silent nights were everyone gets a breather for a day/ can catch up on reading. Game of thrones somewhat acted like that where you could only pm a few people that were in your house and that was a pretty fun game i felt.

Oh that's a nice touch. Maybe silent nights with a slightly higher post limit, some kind of balance there, as an option. I really just like the idea of having the game type always available if we're going to be expecting more newer / returning players to have somewhere to jump back in. I don't even really think this needs to be an option queue type forever, just have it so that when games are posted for a bit that it's easily-accessible information either at the top of the OP or in the thread title somehow.

edit: lol option

I approve of that idea. One of the reasons I join newbie/mini games is because there are less people posting so I don't have to waste so much time catching up and investing into the game. Silent nights would certainly help with that problem and I wouldn't mind seeing that implemented more often by hosts.

fwiw I stopped trying, and eventually playing, because most people in games put forth a miserable, miserable amount of effort and I'm not interested in putting effort into a game myself if nobody else is. Shit's pointless.

From the responses I've seen most people actually want games infested by lurkers though. So it will never get better either.

Not gonna go on a rant here just stating that this is largely why I stopped playing in the first place
And also why I'm most likely not going to play games here again. Not that anybody cares.

Says the lurkiest scum who ever lurked

Don't be a little bitch and play some games. I hate inactivity way more than you and I still stick it out.

There is one possible way I see to remove mass lurkers from games. Expand the newbie games requirement to something like 5 games. In some ways this is especially good since newbie games sometimes can take quite a while to fill... And further, there's always been this philosophy (which is mostly true) that 3 games isn't really enough time to get into the full swing of things and really know what's going on. Like you'll have newbies coming out of their 3 games with no idea about playing scum, since about 1/4 the time they'll be scum in a typical setup. Wouldn't it be nice if there was in fact a very good chance they came out with at least one scum game? Also, newbies that aren't going to be super-interested in really giving normal games a good try will be more likely to be weeded out, which might improve game quality a bit. Bored super-stars could be graduated early etc. etc. just something to think about...

Tbh, the newbie thing might be a bit much (although I do believe the 3-game ceiling should be removed and if players want to they should be allowed to stay there a bit longer), but there are other ways of dealing with this. The way I see this thread, they wouldn't have called so many inactive players from the dead just to spout how things are gonna be. So any suggestions you might have on how TL Mafia can create a better environment you'd like to play in are very likely to be heard in this space. Maybe fewer, more choosey/higher quality games would be a good change? Or perhaps have more games of the flavor of "championship games," where only the active dedicated pool of players is hand-picked for a super high-caliber game on a semi-frequent basis (like once a month)? Just saying that now is probably your best chance to brainstorm these things so if there's changes that would encourage you to come back please do share.
