Scummies Nominations Thread 2020

[OkaPoka]

Can we discuss that game? That gambit was pretty funny in retrospect

[Alisae]

I mean if Micc nominated it, that must mean we're allowed to talk about it.
So...

[Micc]

Be careful about discussing team mechanics as that can easily infringe into talking about games that are still ongoing, but otherwise go for it.

Literally any other roll of the setup it would have been fucking disgusting

Rising Star
2/25	gobbledygook	Sujimichi	Sujimichi has shown great skill as both alignments in just a short amount of time. Sujimichi plays the game in a refreshingly methodical fashion, navigating around pitfalls placed by both town and scum. Additionally, Sujimichi never imposes on other players or makes other players feel unwelcome. As I am reigning in how much I personally play, I will be looking to join games with Sujimichi because those games are always going to be fun. Sujimichi may not be as integrated into the sitewide community, but Sujimichi's play sets the bar high for any subsequent Rising Star nominations.

nth, Sujimichi is really good. Suji shows initiative in townplay without pretending to have all the answers which is exactly what you want to see with fresher players

Rising Star
2/26/2020	mastina	Sujimichi	When I first encountered Sujimichi, I immediately thought Suji had potential--and then was blown away by Sujimichi's clutch vig. In that game, there were enough mislynches where the last scum could have easily pulled off a win and while not widely townread, wasn't widely scumread. Suji managed to kill them anyway, and in doing so, directly cause the town to win. While that game finished in 2019 (and is thus ineligible for the 2020 Scummies), Sujimichi in this calendar year has continued to impress as a rising star. In Skyrim uPick, Sujimichi managed to vig both groupscum, one-upping Suji's prior vig performance. The Pine vig was particularly game-changing, as Pine was a slot who not many players were suspicious of and Pine being, well...PINE, taking him out of the game significantly helped out the town. In Sujimichi's first scumgame ever, nobody at any stage of the game even remotely suspected Sujimichi. Suji was able to flawlessly pull of a victory and make the right kill to seal the game as a scum win. Sujimichi is a player who is a breath of fresh air, someone who is logical, rational, but not overbearing, who asks questions, prods, pokes, and forms reasonable conclusions that push the game forward in the direction furthering Sujimichi's wincon. Who has a good understanding of how to use roles well and who is really good even without them.

That scumgame was rigged I demand a refund

I had no idea nths weren’t a thing anymore.

we here at the SSC fully support people wanting to show their support!
We just don't want to include "nths" in nominations.
The best way you can show your support is to add more to the write ups by providing your own.

Moment of Brilliance
2/27/2020	Jingle	mastina	TM2020 Mini Theme	Mastina rocked this game. Not to discount the play of people like jjh who were also solid town contenders, but this game would not have been even close to the same game without mastina. First of all, she managed to pick out 2/3 of scum for her D1 PoE AND get one of them (the scumteam's strongman, no less) lynched, despite several loud TvT fights providing huge distractions. She also accurately locktowned a good portion of the game. Then, she managed to use her role to great effect when she got a soft guilty on the last scum, who was the only real deepwolf candidate. Slowplaying it, she managed to get Mena to claim 1 shot vig and then retract into an obviously false ascetic claim while a JK had flipped, turning what was at best mediocre evidence into a lynch on what was objectively the best positioned scum. Town nearly lost despite this, but mastina was directly responsible for the scum lynches on days 1 and 2 and was one of the strongest pushers for the final scum to be lynched early as well.

[Alisae]

hot take: Mena played that bus poorly and mastina's guilty wasn't needed.
I had him caught over night but I wasn't exactly allowed to play the game so...

[Alisae]

not as much as a hot take: Mena REALLY needs to learn how to play scum

Rude

Ftr I think the number of scum games I’ve lost that I’ve played from the start is exactly 1, which was the mini theme, and which I was incredibly burned out in and still overwhelmingly TR by the majority of the PL

[RadiantCowbells]

ahem
