    Please format it in the proper way a theme review thread should be formatted.

    If this is your "last attempt to save Mafia", then you certainly need to be trying harder. I haven't looked at the coding yet, but trace is 100% correct in that you need to format this thread correctly so that people can look at this easily and see what is what. A good majority of people aren't fluent in coding, believe me. So please, drop the attitude and put up a better fight if you think a Dora theme will save Mafia.

    Thing is, he doesn't even have a code. That link is a description of the theme (but it's quite complete, so it wouldn't take long for someone to code it).

    But even if themes' plans are accepted, the author still need to sell their theme. Just throwing it here and saying "figure what's good about the theme by yourself" is the epitome of not even trying.

    Here's the thing, @Elite's Aaron : If this theme is allowed to be reviewed without a code and it gets a decent rating, I'm willing to code it for you. But for that, you will have to make an post with an easy-to-read explanation for all roles/sides, explaining the good points about the theme, its main points of interest, etc.

    Look. Mafia is dead. F**k the order. Look at the date of that. I haven't modified that since that time. I'm not going to reorganize it to fit the proper order. Sorry trace, be above your OCD and read it the way I organized it. It goes: Heroes, Villains 1, Villains 2, Independant Villain, and Independant "*". I honestly forgot what it's called when it wins with any side. I'm thinking Conspirator but I'm not sure, dusty memories those are.

    it goes like this:

    Win messages,
    Heroes, (dora n friends)
    Villains 1 (yucky muck)
    Villains 2 (whirly worm)
    Super Villain (Swiper)
    Conspirator (grumpy old troll)
    Priority List
    Roles lists

    Roles are organized like this:
    Official name, followed by the flavor text.
    Powerful-Weak commands

    I'm asking you to read it the way I organized it. I'm giving you this script, and I want you to code it. And if you do, I believeit will lead to Mafia being rivived. My final attempt is to put a new theme in the server ASAP.

    I almost feel like actually coding this theme just to show you it won't improve Mafia's activity at all. A half-assed effort like the one you are putting with this thread is not what will revive mafia.

    I don't see you doing any better. There hasn't been a mafia game in 4 days. (3 days, 22 hours.) Code my theme and put it onto the server and people will play it.

    The problem with Mafia right now, as it stands, is a lack of a constant playerbase (which we're working on) as well as people not knowing how to play on top of not willing to take the time to actually learn because they will be harshly criticized before getting the hang of it. The existance of a Dora theme--or lack thereof--will not change this fact.

    Either way, the point of this thread is to discuss your theme and its strongpoints/weakpoints. The issue in doing this, however, is you didn't code it. You simply threw it into the text box and said "You better approve this to save Mafia", to sum it up. If I may quote from the QC v3 thread...

    Considering you've basically done none of that, I am requesting that one of the following move your theme to the proper location: Theme Development.

    Okay, just going to address some of this publicly.

    Don't act like an ass. I would love for Mafia to be magically revived at the drop of a hat. However, do NOT demand anyone to do things that you neglected to do, or just feel like doing. If your theme is good enough, it will make the server. However, there is a process we must all take, and even YOUR theme will adhere to these guidelines.

    If Rice, or other Mafia community members, wish to contribute towards the coding and the overall theme, they can. In the meantime, this will be in Theme Development, due to the coding not being done, and once it is done, I shall move the theme back to review.
