GammaEmerald: Who or where should I go to if I want to get a closed setup checked here?
As HSL said, get a halfway experienced co-mod to bounce ideas off of. Worked well for me in the past.

@HSL: wasn't someone else already working on a Hot Fuzz setting? ;-)

Lifthrasil: It will actually be a game without a proper Cult. Rather with two enemy factions: SHODAN and The Many. So, the setting will be System Shock 2.

HypersomniacLive: You need to develop a Hot Fuzz setting.
Who would try something like that?

Hm, that could be a decent setting for a repeat of Cult C9. Now to go looking for the names again.

Yeah, and look how far that went...

Funnily enough, Lifthrasil's the last one to have posted in that thread.

So funny story.

Editing the opening posts and something odd occurred which caused a loss. It wasn't anything complicated, simply adding the recent game into the list of completed games and changing the host list. This is why we are finding it odd.

If anyone has any historical data which will help recreate the posts (primarily post #2, rules etc...) please PM us. The next hosts were JMich and then Dessimu and after that it isn't clear. (Maybe dedoporno third?)

Thank you and long live GoG forum software.

I was wondering if deleting that post was a silent statement on the state of our gaming community... but unfortunately I don't have a backup.

There probably was an unclosed sharp opening bracket - < - following by anything other than a space somewhere in the post. In a misguided attempt to fix a security issue, gog strips everything it thinks is HTML (rather than just properly encoding it).

I don't know how useful this aborted clone of the thread is, but it's the best I've been able to find: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/forum_mafia_administration_and_discussion (sadly bing and google don't seem to have a cached version of page1, due to gog opening the last page of a thread by default, and archive.org only has a copy of page1 from 2014, which isn't very useful either)
Posted August 28, 2017
Correction, bing does have a complete recent copy after all - I just wasn't thinking clearly enough about the right URLs to test.

bing.com cache from 29 july of page1 (in case that copy expires, I also saved it locally.)

iirc Lift was added to the hosting list after gamma in the last month

Nicely done, again, Gogtrial!

Also, in case anyone does NOT know about the details of the issues with URLs, here's a link. Hopefully it works.

Other reading on issues with the softward: Link 2

I knew there weren't just beautiful people around here.

Thank you for being smart gogtrial34987.

I...I...I clicked on that link.

I TRUSTED YOU, FLUB!


...I don't really know why, though. My fault, I guess.

no, he needs to be banned from all future games so when he gets over his hissy fit (again) he doesn't come back
