Unfortunately, Google decided to shut down the Adsense anyhow. I've asked for an appeal, but if they do not reply by the end of the month, I will be shutting down the site. Thanks for the good times, but I suppose it's time for me to move on.
In all seriousness though, thanks to everyone that contributed to this site, whether it have been in a good way or a bad way. Even you, pranay has made this site way less boring that it could have been. I am glad to have met the people that I have here on EpicMafia and I wish you all the best as you move on with your lives. Thanks again, Lucid.
Lucid's already taken steps to show what we've done. I think intervening will just piss google off

Yeah, at this point, I'd honestly wait until we receive an appeal from Google. I really hope that they have acknowledged we've worked really hard as a community to fix up this website to meet their standards. If that doesn't happen within a few months, then we can all send in donations for you. I'm positive we can get enough.

game data should be saved if the game needs to reported, no?
Restart the site with a new name. No need to shut this either. Keep this site running for a few days without the advertisements. When all players know the link to the new site, we can move there where we dont save any data that can't be moderated easily.
Also you can substitute the ad revenue by asking money from users. we are willing to pay. Decide a monthly plan.

abc wants to request an unban so he can SAVE the site
I'll take this idea over losing this site! I'm also trying to think of good alternates to EM, but there are very few. Perhaps as far as decked mafia goes the way I ended up using it could be accomplished with a modified IRC bot? It wouldn't be the same, however. And with draw my thing gone, Draw it is the most obvious choice of pictionary, at least for me.

you still said arcbell + lucid couldnt make a logical decision
The only thing I can think of right now is emailing or filing some sort of complaint to google adsense right now and explaining that we are cleaning up the site/pleading for it to have a second chance--can someone find contact info for that?
Until lucid allows us to donate, let's go this route.
Also Arcbell lol not even I blame you in the least for this. This was a move Riot made without thinking.
Just delete the game data. Do not save any game data. Do not save anything. Delete all comments on the setup pages and role pages. Game history should be deleted as soon as it happens. People can keep screenshots for reports if they want. I will never report again. Just don't shut this site please. People will die.
Site to be shut down
