It’s the end of the season, you know what that means. That’s right, it’s review time yet again! It’s been a pretty interesting season for game design with Bear running what I believe is this community's very first Hydra game so that’s cool.
Going to be a bit different this season because we don’t really have anything in terms of rule changes. We tried out a couple of new rules last season, and we feel like they’ve gone over pretty smoothly since we’ve implemented them, but please let us know if you have any feedback on those. Last game aside, we’ve seen a lot of improvement on the hostility front and we would just like to thank all of y’all for your part in that. So we’ve been struggling on one specific thing this season and that is having enough players to fill games.
Our very own MrHedin made this very nice survey which most of you kindly filled out, and you can find the results of that here.
Based on these results we’ve decided to use this next season as a test period to try to play in other spots aside from ResetERA and hopefully use that to grow the community more. So in addition to running two of this next season's games on Era we will be running two on our satellite forum OuterMafia as well as running one game on MafiaUniverse.
For those who don’t know, MafiaUniverse is a forum where the main focus is Mafia. They host the yearly champs game where we’ve had players like Maol, Monkey, and Hedin represent us, and they also have a spot for other communities to set up a space there. Ours isn’t quite up yet, but when it will, it’ll be available here. When this game does run, we’re going to open signups to MafiaUniverse as a whole but we would like to use this game to see if this is something we would want to do more of in the future, so we’re going to have signups open here first, and we would like to see signups be mostly Era members, so if you’re curious please go poke around and make an account.
There hasn’t been much reviewing in the first post of this review thread so if you feel like there’s something that you wanted to bring up about this season please let us know, and if you have any questions about any of this at all, feel free to ask.
And now, a look toward the future.

This season we will be investigating a small town in the great state of Washington, bullying some nerd with a football head in *checks notes* not New York? Are you sure? We’ll also be trying to figure out who’s been doing a series of brutal killings of breakfast foods, struggling not to get our strings cut, and debating if we want to believe all of this.
for a trip to Mafia Universe for a special vacation/networking trip. They are going to be pretty impressed by our lovingly handcrafted games that we bring all the way from the workshop in the village. But I would also love to hear more ideas and brainstorming about how we can keep going.
