Nominate Nachomamma8's Terrible Music Mafia for Best Flavor

2nd Nacho.

Really loved the flavor in the game: matched and fit well.

[Kmd4390]

Noticed the town of Happy Tree Friends got a nom. As much as i'd love to see a game I modded have a Scummie winner, it was poor scum play that caused the near sweep. The Day 1 lynch was a player who made himself obvscum after daykilling a player who quite a few thought was scum. Day 2 was a self-hammer on a secret vote from a vote thief. And the last scum was a flaker. If a town lost to that team, i'd cry.

Nominate killerjester for Best Flavor Text

, thanks to playing with fire. Seriously, read the mod scenes. They were hilarious.


From that same game but fitting his overall play,

Nominate AngryPidgeon for Don Corelone

. Seriously, dude's a boss. As scum, he pretty much dominates the game. He dodges suspicion for most of the game, the few who call him scum are seen as crazy (often also by themselves, as they write their AP suspicion off as paranoia), and he directs the flow of his scumteams magnificently.

He not only dominates the day play, but also the night game by directing the flow of his scumteam's actions and making all of the right decisions.
Basically, he does a good job of ensuring not only that he doesn't get lynched, but also that he's not even in people's preferred lynch lists. And then shuts the town down with his actions.
This nomination can also be supported by Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Legacy.


...Speaking of Angry Pidgeon,

Nominate AngryPidgeon for Rising Star

.

He's less than a year old MS-wise, but he's already made an incredibly strong presence for himself. He's a strong scum player as mentioned above, but he is also an incredibly-dangerous town player. Though he takes a while to get settled into his reads, once he locks on, he decimates the scum with how hard he pushes. But he's a skilled enough player not to tunnel, and knows when to back down.

Basically, he has a strong presence in a game, a presence which is extremely beneficial for whichever alignment he is. The longer he's allowed to influence a game, the more likely it is that his faction will win. His play has been getting stronger and stronger, and you can see improvement in both his town-play and his scum-play by comparing his earlier games (mostly in 2012) to his later games.

Essentially...he's a guy who may come across as annoying at first, and he's a guy who is generally massively underestimated...at the grave cost of the opposite side, as he comes in and blindsides his enemies. He shows incredible promise as a player, and looks to continue having a strong presence on the site.

[Nero Cain]

I never wrote my suspicion of AP off as paranoia. You made me sad. But I'm down with the rising star nom.

2nd AP for rising star.

[Xalxe]

Second Flavor Text

[MattP]

Since we're talking about Rising Stars

Nominate ActionDan for rising star

I think he's been impressive in all of the games I've seen him in. He's very rational, people listen to him, and he has good reads. I know he lost in these two games, but it doesn't change that his play was impressive: Gay Mafia II and Posh Mafia. In Gay Mafia he pretty much pegged all of the scum D1. He was in a hydra w/ Chesskid and Elli but a lot of the stuff I read about their accurate reads came from him out of the players.

I find him very methodical and grounded, he gets a read and doesn't get scattered but instead pushes and gets everything out of it. I find him to be obvious as town, I think he's come into his own very quickly comparing his play now with some of his earlier play (Heterosexual Rev) and I think he deserves the nom

[Om of the Nom]

nth Both AP noms and Dan

Nominate the scumteam of NY161 for the best mafia performance

http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=25367

Everyone on the scumteam did a very good job. Vifam and Uberninja posted enough to smokescreen the thread and stall the town from doing anything meaningful. I am Innocent played a Mafia Traitor and successfully fake cliamed cop and got TWO people lynched with it. Basically the scumteam ran rings around the town and there was never enough suspicion on them to get a significant wagon going on one.

[mastin2]

Eh, might as well

second NY161

[TraceyLyn11]

Nominate The Inheritance Cycle for best town performance.

Perfect town win. Killed the mafia seraph knight day one, role blocked the mafia back-up tracker night one, and quick lynched him the next day after a few PR's claimed and they worked out that the claims must be true and he must be scum. The entire game wasn't even a month long.
