Author Topic: Hosting Mafia Madness RIGHT NOW  (Read 1786 times)

I am hosting Mafia Madness right now. Join if you wish.
The server is dedicated. We finally have a 24/7 mafia madness server! However, I am going to need admins to keep this in order.
Admin on this server is based on your understanding of mafia madness games. If you are a known good host, or have barely any RDMs, you may become admin.
I also need help with setting dumpsterloc and other stuff.

Take that part out.

literally Riddler

Server is on dedi mode since I am going to eat dinner. Chat log is on. RDMers and team killers will be punished. Dedi mode will also be on at night for true 24/7.

Let me translate this for anyone who hasn't played Mafia Madness.

Translation:




Wi-fi is stuff, might not be able to. For some reason the forums load quickly.


setro i'm gonna dox u i found ur picture in the school yearbook




MM is not meant to be hosted without constant administration, and that isn't really possible with a 24/7 server on Blockland. it's much better to just host when you're available

there's setup instructions in this topic: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=232885.0

Surprisingly when I rejoined I had no complaints. Users could have left though,
It is down now. I have enabled RTB so I can actually make admins auto, now. So I'll make Blok and all those good hosts admin.

This is the worst idea in the world. Mafia Madness will simultaneously become stale and recognized as a haven for RDMs. You will never achieve 24/7 administration that is quality.

pretty much this
you can not, i repeat, you can NOT host mafia madness as a dedicated server
that just simply does not work

Not quite sure how to say this.
RDM is just being killed in-game for no reason. If there are no admins there, and a player joins, it's kind of their fault if they get RDMed. Some people are crazily obsessed with MM. Dedi Mode in MM automatically starts rounds when another one ends. During dedi mode, no admins are present. Players will be encouraged to only play when admins are present. But, the server will still be up for those people who are crazily obsessed with mafia madness.
This might seem like a bullstuff idea, but if I shut down the server, I need to set the dumpsterloc, afterlife, and arena loc when it starts up again. And locking the server and kicking everyone is tedious.
I will try my best to get as much good admins as possible to keep the server in order for a lot of time through the day. And when nobody is on, the server will still be up, but the players will have to play without admins and with dedimode, facing the danger of RDM.
I feel it is the players' choices.
Obviously, nobody likes RDM. But if a player is somehow OKAY with RDM, they can join whenever they feel like.
I believe in choice.

Hm. You bring up some valid points, although hosting this server 24/7 can hurt the reputation of the server slightly for those not familiar with your system.

I will add a warning to the welcome message about it

Really? Just because no admins are online its the fault of the victim? If anything thats an administrative problem.
