Hell, I'll give out a year of premium to the mod and to the MVP. If you want to take me up on this offer, PM me with details about your game.

blake: what a guy.

What can I do to help return CC Mafia to the golden age? I remember having a lot of fun playing here back in the day.

I might be one of the few who doesn't care for CC in general and others will be more interested in winning Premium than I am, so don't base your policy on my opinion.
HotShot's excellent point on personal attacks is good. I can't count the amount of times I've seen (and used, to my regret) the phrase "either you're mafia or you're stupid". Using meta specific stuff to root out odd ducks and hang them for being just that is counter productive if you want the community to grow. I feel that this attitude has darkened the atmosphere in this forum, and thereby darkened my mood whilst playing. I'm not holding this to anyone in specific as I'm equally (or more) guilty, and I sometimes get the idea people don't particularly like me because I can be very rude to other players. In reality, I'm a really likeable guy. Trust me.
I'd appreciate it if hosts (and players) didn't demand full-time dedication to a game. If you're not posting for a few days without leave, I get the idea that I'm either gonna be modkilled or lynched, and that it's held against me both in-game and personally. I love the game and I love reading and writing posts. It's like writing essays, but ones that are fun to write. I don't love sacrificing sleep to do it, though. This is probably due to my horrible sense of time management, but it's still what discourages me from playing, among other things.
Getting me back to this game would require more than that, though. It would require me to recover from a recent and quite exhausting depression, to stop playing all the other games I'm currently playing (like Skyrim, EU4, Civ, etc. which demand incredible amounts of time) and be bothered once again to open up a topic and attentively read what everyone has to say. There isn't much that you guys can do to change that, so I'll report back when I've managed to do that.

I have to agree on most levels with this (Maybe not the part about you being likeable )
Blake. Would it be possible to find another type of prize (Besides premium or conquer credits) to try and stir up some interest? I'd suggest a medal, but that would almost dictate going back through old games and handing out medals to the old winners. But something like that?
Or, I don't know about the others, but maybe give them a slot to create a BR game? Something to that effect? (I'm honestly bad at this brain storming thing, and I'm kind of an outsider here, so I don't know what might motivate other mafia members)

Medals are already in the works, at least for the official games. As far as creating a BR or something of that nature, it's possible, but I'm not sure I would want to do it regularly.
Keep the suggestions coming guys.

Haven't played in a while and am not quite aware of how out-of-hand the in-game abuse has gotten but I feel self-policing would be a better option. Similar to Lynch All Liars, I'd prefer to see players come together and Cull All Cussers if the abuse crosses a line. My play style is almost always respectful but we are just roleplaying here.... I think there is room for a confrontational, and perhaps even somewhat abusive, style... as long as it doesn't go too far. Such a style can add flavor to the game. I'd leave it up to the players to use their votes to decide how far is too far for a player to go.

LOL my very first game you threatened to black list me for being so bad and annoying. It was one of Sully's games.

Keep in mind, they need to fit with the set of the other Achievement and Contribution medals.
