Scummies Nomination Thread 2017

[nancy]

Also the sheet for the scummies seems to be cut off

also why do we have no one nominated for Best Moderator yet?
That's lame.
Mods put effort into their work.
zzz

Because mastina doesn't have 3 completed mod games yet. I've been patiently waiting for her to finish one of her current ones so that I can nom her.

Oh yeah that's right she has 2 completed games.
And I was just about to nom her.

If there's a "best town group" nom, I'd say that it potentially deserves a nom. But the setup was unbalanced and the scum team not that good. Wasn't actually a very good game *shrugs*
(I'd also say the occasional bursts of toxicity takes away from "best game" as a deserving nom but YMMV)

Just to validate your opinion as not being one coming from biased scum, I agree the setup wasn't balanced. I'm not sure the town would deserve a best town performance if that existed, our townbloc was incredible but we were playing against what was effectively half a team. I don't really think roflstomping should be considered a good town performance. It probably wasn't enjoyable at all for scum, but I had a lot of fun doing things with Plotinus and Tammy and Nacho at least. I enjoyed myself enough despite the difficult parts of it and the overall lack of competition, I liked the setup a lot even though I thought it was very townsided, and the flavor was really great. I hope there's a sequel!

[mastina]

Nominate mastina for best moderator

Seconded

While I'm flattered, there's no award for best moderator.

...

...There is, however, an award for excellent moderation.

Nominate real folk blues for game of the year

This game was absolutely fantastic to observe. Definitely deserves a nomination

Yeah a game with bad play and only good use of mechanics deserves a GOTY award.
...
...

Oh wait no it doesn't.

I was mod of this and i don't think it deserves it.
I also think you have been giving bad noms lately.

[Alisae]

I mean come on
that's like nominating Railgun for best setup
That's a TERRIBLE nom for best setup.

masoniser manages to bring ascetic into "masonry"

pls no

Game quality wise, I'd say it was overall... adequate.

Not an embarrassing stomp, and a mix of good and bad performances by various people on the board
Not the most toxic game of the year (tho it had some moments)
Some mod errors but not a ridiculously large # (sk faction has right to bitch on setup and mistakes tho)

I wouldn't give it a scummy or a razzy. It was... a game that happened, basically. *shrugs*

[Nero Cain]

I tend to think folks look at big games and go "OMG this was great!"

[Nero Cain]

like I'd argue that this is pretty worthy of GOTY but then again even I wouldn't nom it for that since I felt like the set up was pretty eh, and the moderation was eh. It is, however, Kodak Moment worthy b/c the town play was pretty good. (one mislynch)

[Antihero]

I tend to think folks look at big games and go "OMG this was great!"

this. that and people go "OMG SO MANY PAGES MUST HAVE BEEN GREAT"

fucking SMITE got nommed the year it was run and that was a complete dumpster fire

ppl need to stop inexplicably lowering their standards for large themes

[Cabd]

That, and really ANY moderator error should probably be disqualifying for a scummy. (I say this as somebody who has made mod errors before and told people not to nom said games)

[mhsmith0]

I'd say trivial mod errors shouldnt be disqualifying (typos etc), but material ones should (I guess barring just an incredibly well played game that overcame mod issues I guess)

[RadiantCowbells]

I mean I also disagree with Heartless game being GOTY worthy but *shrug*

[mhsmith0]

If there was a "best collective town" award, it's fair to nom KH for it. It doesn't reasonably qualify for anything else (maybe a scum team razzie or something if they had those too )

[RadiantCowbells]

Don't think that KH deserves a best collective town award necessarily. That would go to Alisae's micro

[Gamma Emerald]

Nominating Spring Fever for GOTY

The setup was brilliant and both sides played well (I think).

[Ginngie]

camn's revenge remains a perfect fun game for game of the year to be honest
