I think the recruitment is a good addition, either the mafia team is seriously lacking members due to them being mostly owned (this game), or than one of their members cant be bothered to play. if they recruit an important member, such as the sheriff, doctor or alliance, then... we'll have to think of something... but its going to be hard.

I think Lt-DavidW is making efforts into the next season, cause I dont think I am able to at the moment, courses and exams, but I hope to collaborate with lylesback2 into making a voting system for the future seasons.

Here is a concept that I gave to lylesback2, maybe i could get some public opinions?

Wow - I think it looks great. I don't really have any feedback, but then again I'm not a programmer.

Looks good mate, but will their be specifications for who is who in the voting system? Or will people be referred to as Player 1 or 2?

People will be displayed as names. All names will be posted (excluding your own) from the voting system. Even mafia members, doctors, sheriff and towns people will all be displayed, so it doesn't raise suspicion as to who is who.

The voting system will display 2 votes in advance for people who has busy schedules, and once voting session time has closed, the results will be posted, the member killed, saved or hung and eliminated / saved from this game. Each role in the game will have a custom designed page. Mafia members will have an elimination vote page, the doctor will have a Save Player vote page, the Sheriff will have a Suspicion vote page, and the towns people will have a Suspicion voting page too. Depending on your role, your screens will be custom and should not be shared with anyone.

If the member has been caught as mafia, or wrongfully accused, results will be instantly posted.

The system will be only for voting and results. The topic forum here on Neowin will be for discussion.

I'm quite amazed cause in my head it is quite a complex system, yet you said you can do this casually... big props to that.

On my mind right now is that, by everyone has a custom page do you mean there are specific options that is only displayed to certain members? I only have a shallow knowledge of PHP thorugh working with wordpress, but I know that PHP is able to pull strings of code depending on user, so you can have a general template, and pull an additional "Doctor" voting string that displays another option for Doctors vote and such right?

Another thing is that, rather than having members register for hte system, what if initially at game start, the system presents each player with a set of 4 letter code and each member logs in to the system using that code (fixed, cannot be changed) this ensures a easier system to work with and not have all these people registering anonymously...

I'm not worried about the load on my server, it's a mean server that can handle a lot of pressure :crazy:

I really like sundayx's idea about having a single 4-letter word login (i've always done the username / password) login, but this will be different and easier to code.

For the custom pages, just think of neowin. When you click on your profile/blog, compared to someone elses, you get an editing screen, and when someone elses views it, you get the display only.

I can't explain every detail now, but you will have to wait and see :)

Na no need my permission or anything, besides if you are to host the system with the game, you might be the best person for the moderator...

      Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • DuRoBo Krono Review: Portable E-Ink reader with great ideas that need a bit of improvement

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • what other retro software do yall use

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
