I've never played Forum Mafia before,
Are we using the roles from Forum Mafia or from the Testing Grounds, or are we making them up?
I'm assuming this is done as their is one host and everyone has to communicate with the host with night abilities and day abilities?
What time frame we lookin at?
(Like how long does a game go for?)
How long are days/nights/voting phrases?

In the first few tests we may use some of the roles that were planned for the TG but were never implemented. After that, it will be organized similarly to the TG in 2017-2018. Anyone will be able to submit a role, and we will vote on which ones to implement with a review phase to make sure that the roles don't have broken mechanics.

Yes. The TG client is outdated and I don't have the time or expertise to update it so we will be using Discord instead. There will be a moderator and all the players will dm their abilities to that person. Between phases, there will be a mod time where for the moderator to process the actions.

The phases will be the same as ToS but there will be time between the phases for the moderator to perform actions. As lemonader mentioned, it will be more like ToS than FM since FM requires a long time commitment and the TG was originally meant to emulate ToS. We will likely play multiple games, so I expect the tests to last around an hour with mod time and waiting for enough players.

And we don't have the coders who want to dedicate their free time for this. So that is the reason they're not happening, ever.

We're almost at 10 players!

Did you make a forum post about it? I see that there's been a few attempts to revive the TG, but none that I see on the forums seem to have been very organized. I don't expect this to succeed but I am going to try and hopefully we can get enough people regularly attending tests.
