Currently, mafia-styled games held on the forum (OC, NOC, Popcorn/Viva/multifac etc etc) are all lumped in one mostly-FCFS ordered queue, where no two games run simultaneously. We didn't even need a queue for a while, then Revivial picked up steam rather than slowing down (can you believe JOAT10 was hosted because we had nothing in the queue at the time) so we made a queue. Then OC games started, the mausoleum emptied and all the boomers revived themselves to play again, and judging by the queue, y'all don't seem to be just passing through!
The queue is not working, not well at least. It can be improved, and there's no reason to shrug and keep our NOC-structured queue when we can accommodate the distinctions. Here's a poll and discussion thread for how to improve our queue, I've thrown in some logical ideas I had at the start of the poll, I'm not against adding more possibilities.
Votes are fully free - you can vote for any option you want, you can see what others have voted for, and you can change your votes if you want. The poll currently doesn't close. Not all of these options are mutually exclusive from each other, though some many contradict - it'll just give mods idea of direction forward.
