It is a bit noteworthy because in MS LSGs no one sweeps, even if they're against a questionable person. It is actually surprising the the person who cheated didn't get a spite vote due to people being bothered that some took the sure to get no votes person to ftc. It's happened before that the obviously hated person gets a vote or two from people.(like goofy almost won castle oblivion people were so salty about Donald taking him) I would say that it would be a heavily sarcastic title considering how often he does badly in ftc for being somewhat abrasive, or while hes in tge jury, being particularly salty and bitter about losing. Either way, i think its notable enough for a title. As is getting no 0's during SUPP. I'm for it.

I actually like it more for it being sarcastic af than him winning MLS unanimously.

It also points out how Kilby of all people getting the first unanimous win is like the least-expected person to do that given that his entire play style is "be a goat but try to take even worse people to FTC"

are both good for hiplop
They refer to him getting no 0s from the SUPP
It's also a reference to Survivor/Big Brother, which is a section of the site that hiplop is very active in
On top of that, hiplop won the first EVER (and still only) unanimous jury vote in the site's history in Survivor: MLS winning it 10-0
I think both of these are good
nth either

The mafiascum thread for that game seems pretty quiet about it...was everyone hyped in private conversations/on whatever outside forum/is it something that people generally still remember now more than a year later? How does Chevre's objection play into all of this?
people definitely still talk about MLS a year later, though probably not that win specifically

It's more tongue-in-cheek than anything

hot take: a few of the people who've nthed this now-- i believe they have absolutely no context to this title besides what's been posted in this thread and it kind of speaks to the fact that anything half-baked but well-explained will generate enough support because lolz titles r fun

That being said, I've turned the corner and yeah, I think it's good as a half-ironic thing, like mr. personality.
It's something I could easily explain in like three lines, which is better than some titles.

yeah i think the fact it has like 10 different avenues for explanation and it touches on all of them is important and gets it past the bar

Thank you people who explained the title because I very much did not understand it...I didn't realize at all that it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek even <_<

My takeaway from the explanations of LSG people is that the title as it pertains to survivor has a pretty clear concept and it's one I like. The same concept largely applies to hiplop's zero-less SUPP performance imo, so that's good, but I do think the jump between the survivor aspect of the title and the SUPP aspect of the title is a bit of a weak point because...well..."jury" is a bit of a weird term to be applying to SUPP. Is that a problem? I don't think it's a fatal issue but perhaps there's some way it could be improved. If there's a better way of expressing the same sentiment, maybe we can find it. If not, I'm ok with it.

i think it's a sliding scale of more closely related to vivor versus more closely relates to supp. the further from the word jury you get in search of closeness to SUPP the further from the vivor aspect you get, and vice versa.
