Thanks for the nomination from my Mini 626 players!
One of the problems with scummies is that I don't think people think of them all the time. I certainly don't. So what gets in and gets out can be affected by having someone go "oh yeah! the scummies". Anyway, that's what just happened to me so I have a few thoughts on nominees that I either hadn't turned my mind to or forgot for a bit.
I hereby nominate for:
* Most Cunning Manipulation - "The Don Corleone" Award
* Best Performance by an Individual (Scum) - "Oscar" Award
*Best Replacement
* Best Performance in a Losing Cause
Shaft.ed
for his performance in
Adel's Nightmare
.
He came in as a replacement in a very bad situation and made a great case that made me have to lynch myself to survive. (Weird I know, yes. Go read it.)
as well as
Kison
in
Ipick
who came in as a replacement for me after I was sucking eggs terribly, the team had been decimated AND I had saddled him with a softclaim of certain false information that he had to work in that contradicted other info. He pulled an amazing turnaround that would have won scum the game except for the pesky invisible townie who we all thought was dead.
Which leads me to
Nominate two moderators for awards
that I think should have been nommed already.
* Most Enjoyable Game (Mini [theme/normal]) and
* Best Setup
to
Adel
for
Adel's Nightmare
and
Guardian
for
Ipick
Both games combine innovative game design with excellent moderation. I was privileged to be involved with them as a player.
I'm sure other people can think of other performances by players and moderators that were also excellent. These are just some of the standout things that I've been exposed to in the last little while. Thought they should get some recognition.
