Nominating Flavor Leaf for Best Performance Third Party (Hannibal Lecter) for his play in Overkill 2: A Blood-Thirsty Stallone Themed Game

I contest this for being the stupidest Survivor to ever live in Overkill 1.

[Almost50]

@EJ: It would have needed something extra-ordinary for you die in Overkill 1. You were virtually unkillable at night. FL was open for investigation starting N2 (with 4 TPRs that could nail him) and was open for a kill starting N3 (with 3 other active killers in play).

[RadiantCowbells]

Does FL's role actually qualify as third party though

[RadiantCowbells]

Nominate Ruby Red for Rising Star

Basically my current mafia hero

Great reads, loads of charisma and confidence , overall a powerful, disrespectful and unwavering addition to any playerlist

The only thing that discourages me from this nomination is that I suspect she'll be a serious Paragon contender by the end of the year

I only just now saw this post

[davesaz]

Remember to put noms in the spreadsheet too please.

[RadiantCowbells]

Actually I'm going to -1 for now because I suspect they will be a serious paragon contender by the end of the year.

Officially anti-nomming NSG for rising star
Nominating her for paragon

I went through this complex for a bit as well, but generally, I definitely was 3rd party, but if I won, Mafia also won, but I wasn’t with Mafia. I had to take them down essentially as well.

It definitely felt like I was inflitrating the Mafia team rather than being a part of it, and I think that comes across over the length of the game.

Of course it does. His win con was to be the last one standing, which is the standard win con for the SK. Anything attached (like mafia winning with him) doesn't change the fact he had to outlive everyone in the game to win himself.

i feel like this is in practice makes you play more like a scum than a 3p

[RadiantCowbells]

but uh

not actually questioning the nomination

Nominating her for paragon

2016 Dwlee was nominated for rising star and paragon
they can be nom'd for both

[RadiantCowbells]

mmm

i think on principle the same person should not win both

and as things stand nsg has 0 competition for paragon, so.

[RadiantCowbells]

that said your point is taken and i don't really object to her being the rising star given that i consider her a shoe in for it.

[Firebringer]

Kodak moment is the only nomination that matters.
all the other scummies are dead. act accordingly

[CheekyTeeky]

I finally nominated xRECKONERx for kodak moment from TM.

It's a video he made of mastina being scum. Epic. Watch it and nom!

[Taly]

Nominate Plotinus for Excellent Moderation

Most people probably think of modfather as going to someone who ran the wackiest, craziest large theme games that there are, but I think there's another angle that should be looked at here. Over the course of 2018 Plotinus has very repeatedly moderated very consistently high quality newbie games. By my count there were 11 or 12 – more than any other mod, I believe. There are consistent votecounts with often intriguing, interesting or informative flavor. Plotinus handles any issues that come up very professionally. Important game information like rules, reveals and more are all presented very clearly, above and beyond what is simply expected of a moderator. Even in something like the mod thread, it's clear that a lot of thought has gone into things.

Especially for newbie games, I would argue that this level of quality makes a significant difference. A poorly moderated newbie game could cause a newcomer to flake – a very nicely moderated newbie game might cause someone to stick around. To that end, I think Plot probably holds the standard of quality for newbie games that all other mods should aspire to.

[the worst]

Extremely nth. brilliant nomination.

[Varsoon]

Nth on Plotinus nomination.
