The Future Of EM

over 10 years

EM sure has fallen these past few years, things aren't the same as they were before; the player base has dropped, winning a trophy doesn't have the same hype, the forums aren't as lively, and many former active players are now inactive...

If this continues, EM could be dead within the next decade (5-10 years) or sooner, who knows. Yes, new players will come around and old players will continue to leave but it seems like we are still seeing a downward trend on the activity level of the community instead of an upward trend.

Most of EM's general population is between the ages of 13-18 so with the school season starting, Epicmafia's community will be hit hard and things will start to get worse. We have a cold winter stirring up ahead of us fellow mafioso's and it doesn't look like things are gonna get any better.

Discuss what caused EM to go downhill and what we as a community can to do to change, reform, and help EM flourish again like in the good old days.

With your brain power, we can heal the community together, one step at a time.

Introduce friends in real life to play. And also enjoy playing this game in a MUCH simplified structure irl. If you can't have fun with it irl after playing online, you'll discourage everyone.

Pretty sure 90% of the people here don't care too much about the community and just want lucid to stop taking features away

What if you advertised on social media sites, and added the ability to log-on using them?

I know a few games that give the ability to log-in using facebook for example, and there is a large audience there.

No, whenever I get banned, my fans & followers will leave EM. They are only here because I am here. Their sole existence on this site relies on me staying unbanned.

The site isn't dying, competition supposedly is

So we need to advertise but primarily to people over the age of 16

Think of sites with userbases with ages generally above the age of 16 that also would potentially interested in mafia and go from there

EpicMafia is probably due for a complete artistic rehaul to pull in a new crowd, with that said everyone is going to scream and cry about it if it happens. the site also needs a new layout. The site is based on Facebook and new sites are coming out now so........... it should probably reflect some of that. And there are just a boat load of other things that are on the table for fixing. Lastly, other mafia sites are probably going to emerge with less role glitches and a wiki that explains each role better. ect. ect. ect. there is already a video based mafia that is gaining a lot of hype.


oh video based mafia? can you link me

I no longerthink the site is going to die, I think competition on this site is going to die, and it's just gonna be filled with brainless idiots playing in sandbox or playing red heart fancy pants. Might aswell keep gallis hunter unblacklisted, it'll be the new norm in a few months

the site shouldn't be dying is the sad part. it could easily be saved if more effort was put into it instead of management simply saying "oh well, time for it to die".
