Scummies 2013 - Nomination Thread

[Faraday]

Sanjay replaced in day 2. Day 3 scum slip with day 4 incorrect guilty on someone. Day 5 and Day 2 not being lynched was his play but day 5 he was basically the person everyone wanted sk'd and if philla hadn't been bp then he'd likely trump philla lynch wise. He fits most enjoyable more with things like the scratch action and generally being fun to listen to then best replacement.

Yeah, Sanjay did okay but nominating him for a replacement body of work award seems a little sudden based on an

okay

replace in.

2nd quilford

. That owned.

[Faraday]

Gay Mafia 2 =/= Gay Mafia 1

[Faraday]

Yeah, I think so.

[Faraday]

Don't think the current Paragon qualifies as a rising star

[Faraday]

Nominations are still allowed, though.

[Faraday]

So people are somehow magically better sports as scum?

I actually think he has a point, you get a lot of "But scum didn't have to play well,town played awful" reactions to best scumteam noms.

[Faraday]

I think he means the best scumteam performance (CES, that is).

[Faraday]

Reminder that things need to be at least seconded to be under consideration for judging, that's all.

Nominate mastin2 for Professor Mafia

Weird, I thought it'd been done. Basically his threads are what drives most of the discussion in mafia discussion. Some are rambly, some is maybe not treading new ground but there's always a good point in them and I find them interesting as discussion points of general mafia playing theory, if nothing else. They're also useful -- or at the very least a lot of the ideas may not be "unanimously right", but are worth considering.,

Stuff like this, or this, or this shows what I'm talking about. Here's More and more and more. That's 6 threads, some you may find personally more useful than others -- but that's fine, not everything needs to be aimed at everyone.

I mean, yeah he writes a lot but there's a large portion of it that's interesting and worth reading if you actually bother.

omg so obvious

[Faraday]

Nominate: Rift Adrift?

for most memorable moment. Links below.

Basically, the whole "Oversoul keeps blocking gifs, so let's keep rehosting was really funny to read along with. It kinda, kept going on and on

I feel like Oversoul's reactions basically MADE it funny too but still, it was definitely "memorable", and I thought it was pretty funny!

[Faraday]

Oh, god. Yes. 2nd that for most memorable moment. That was fucking HILARIOUS.

[Faraday]

Players shouldn't be quoting and changing the words like that anyway as it's really crappy thing to do so I don't think it deserves it

lol why is that crappy

[Faraday]

It's incredibly easy to check though, which makes lying in quotes very high risk. Like, stupidly high risk.

It was fairly clearly a joke anyway <_< So I don't even get the issue.

[Faraday]

who was it that got upset

[Faraday]

Nominate Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for

Best Setup.

*Tied into the flavour of the source material well - it was well adapted so that it didn't lose the spirit of it but also wasn't "obvious".
*Basilisk kill mechanic was pretty cool - sort of similar to 1) but it's probably worth mentioning as there were a bunch of little "this is neat" things once you're familiar with HP
*Pretty damn well balanced too, I'd say.

It wasn't some super complex game, but it went against expectations enough that the players playing it never felt cheated by the setup - but instead good play was rewarded.

(imo)

[Faraday]

The fakehammer plan was ooba's though (as far as the qt says)? (And Nacho was getting lynched without it or at L-1 as you said which hardly amounts to "they had the win in the bag")

edit: not that I object to the nomination, I just think your write up is misleading

[Faraday]

Nominate zMuffinman for Most Enjoyable Player

he's a pretty funny guy: http://www.quicktopic.com/50/H/Y32YtvQMfpPz/p600.1 alone is worthy imo


Let's face it, he's not going to win a scummie for being good at the game either!

[Faraday]

as long as she was alive, scum was lynched every single day, with Kagamin on the scum-lynching wagon every time.

wat

9. Baezu, Vanilla Townie, lynched Day One
6. Cabd (SE), Town Doctor, killed Night One
5. Guyett, Vanilla Townie, lynched Day Two
7. Bitmap (SE), Town Tracker, killed Night Two
1. Kagami, Vanilla Townie, killed Night Three

[Faraday]

<_< how come it doesn't say anyone was lynched Day 3 then ._.

[Faraday]

Oh, never mind I missed he was modkilled after! never mind then.

[Faraday]

I guess we'll accept noms for another week-10 days or so, just to get any last minute stragglers nominated. But yeah! Nominate before it's too late.

[Faraday]

2nd Magua

for both.

[Faraday]

Although, I'm not sure my game will count for Cephrir's don corleone nom since it ended in 2014. (It's still a body of work award, and he has other games etc...but yeah, dunno)
