FifthScumBlade's eloquent performance left me utterly disoriented, debased, depraved and sent me spiraling into a horrific murky abyss with emotional turmoil and immense despair as my only companions until slowly I suffocate in my own gloom, surrounded by failure. I will never recover. -- Zachstralkita about Mini 1841

Nominating Ellibereth for Paragon.
Excellent town performance in Beneath The Mask. Ellibereth was the leader in a four-day town victory in a five-scum game. His reads were impeccable, exclusively pushing scum players all game, and identifying four out of the five scum players, with the fifth one in his PoE. He was also instrumental in getting people to vote for his reads, as well as organizing a massclaim that effectively solved the game. In the process, he also became a top townread for practically every player, despite having no mechanical reason to be cleared. Top quality performance in all aspects of a town game."I still cant believe Leonshade just talked his way out of getting lynched by posting Lion King gifs"

Okay speaking seriously for a moment. I think it's a little silly to nom someone for Paragon when what you're actually nomming them for is Best Town Performance (which doesn't exist anymore) and then relegate responsibility to the judges. It's not your fault obviously that Best Town doesn't exist anymore (probably for good reason?) so it makes sense that you'd want to use Paragon as a substitute but Paragon is a body of work award so if the body of work isn't there then it shouldn't be the nomination if you want the awards to have a real sense of integrity. Obviously the whole idea of awards as a thing in itself is a little silly and worth a bit of fun more than anything but that's not an excuse imo to make them even more silly by casually throwing nominations around.
I agree that from what I read Ellibereth had some tops dayplay there, and he deserves props for that tops for sure. If he plays more games at the same level I'd be the first on board to nom him for Paragon. I don't agree that someone playing one or two great games qualifies them for a body of work award and I can think of a bunch of people who have played one or two great towngames lately who haven't even been considered as a Paragon nom. Saying that you'll amend your nom when he plays more great games kind of makes your nom shallow because it looks like you're either invested in a way that doesn't make sense for an awards process (which I think should be a mostly rational process) or just not really vetting your nom very thoroughly. Maybe I'm just being Doctor Stiff O'clock and overly legalistic but I think nomming people for things that don't really fit the nom cheapens it and expecting the judges on top of that to sort through the noise isn't a super great approach overall.

I mean if we're doing real talk, then site town meta is so consistently appalling that there are essentially ZERO players who I think legitimately deserve paragon as it's imagined. And if someone needs to win, the guy who's crushed it ina pretty small sample size is, at least, defensible as a reasonable choice not just for nom but fir winner. If you disagree, I guess come up with a better name?Showhttp://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Mhsmith0
