I searched up a bit and found out there there is an award system for proboards. You can add that and give rewards to y'know mafia winners, MVP, etc ^^

We've considered including a sort of Hall of Fame in the calendar which denotes how many games each player has won, as what factions each player tends to win or lose as, and other things. However, we feel that quantifying victory in this way might lead players to emphasize winning over playing to the overall detriment to the game. Having clear, quantified rewards specifically for winning tends to promote lurking in players who become compelled by these types of rewards, but allowing hosts to pick winners and losers allows for biases and favoritism to enter the field, which is why we have ultimately opted not to include a Hall of Fame in the calendar.
The same general principles apply to the ideas of mafia badges and other types of forum rewards, possibly even moreso, given the more global application of these styles of rewards. While I think that it would be a fun idea to implement, at least a few forummers will go about approaching it the wrong way, and given how small the community still is, we really can't afford to be promoting these kinds of behaviors at this time.

I'm convinced. LOL, you're great with words! Maybe change the blue theme?

I've added two or three color themes, which you can change in your profile, but I'm told that I have absolutely awful taste in color schemes. Suggestions always welcome.
