It's a mafia style text based RPG, that I've been working on for the past year or so.

I've been trying to make it a little different then all the other games, adding more features, and also trying to make it funny too.

Here is a link to it

Let me know in the game if you sign up, my username is chrisfromwa
I'll help you get started.

I'll do the same for your friends too!

Yep, just giving my thoughts. As you may see me play less. As I don't have enough money to keep paying for the bombings at the same time having enough money in my account to earn enough interest to pay the taxes.

It's one reason that could be making people lose interest in the game.

But that's goes along with the whole mafia part of the game. To either get revenge or have your gang go to war with those that did you wrong.

If I remove the ability to bomb homes, then there is nothing a lower level can do to get revenge on a higher level who may have attacked him.

If I make the prices for repair lower, then there is no reason for a person to even bother with the bombings since it won't hurt the person that got bombed.

We really need to get some new players into the game. I want to see the game grow, but right now it seems we only get maybe 1 new player a month that sticks around for more then a few days.

Lets brainstorm on some ways to attract new players to the game

The first thing I hope everyone is doing is voting every day. The higher we rank on each of those voting sites, the better chance someone will join.

I track the incoming links to the game, and when we are ranked higher we do get more clicks.

Are you guys inviting your friends to play? Co-Workers?
Remember for every player you refer I'll give you some adrenalin shots, and your friends will get some better weapons and armor.


What else can we do?
