As long as GOTY gets 5 games I’ll be happy.

Like maybe 2018 was just a shit year for GOTY (no fault to Brass’ game) but as someone who voted, it really seemed like there were a lack of nominations in that category.
I really don’t think anything that was nommed really defined that year.

I noticed a lot of people referring to Starry Night over and over again later in the year like it had become prominent in consciousness or something
I wasn't in gay dance or masquerade to know if they became even bigger
I can't really be the person to nom that game though I am maximum salt wounded

also regarding me not wanting to be nommed for Don Corleone, I've already won the award
I don't think just because it stopped being 2015 I stopped being a Don Corleone and that I need to be awarded it again for validation
If I win the award this year, and then I have another 11/0 or whatever year again next year should I win the award again next year?

like... I don't see the point. in terms of showing newbies how it's done as scum and giving a standard to aspire to I do that without an award. someone else should get it.
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.

Paragon
12/19/19 bitmap RadiantCowbells Mini 2106 - Magia Record Fate Weave Semi-U-Pick
Magical Girls UPick - Heart of Shadow
Before I get into the game, I need to talk about RC and his "character". When you think of typical Paragon players, you imagine those charismatic scum hunters who are able to charm the rest of town into lynching scum. And sure, RC a few years ago might have started out like that. But no, that's not RC or at least where he is now.

When you first play against RC as scum, you assume he's just another player and your scum pt is more focused around how you'll play around town. A few pages in you and your whole scum team gets caught but you shrug it off thinking nothing will come out of it. Well, you're wrong. RC then grabs town and forcibly tells them how to vote causing town to just lynch scum after scum until they're all gone.

For the more experienced scum players who have to deal with town RC, they don't really talk about how to manipulate town. They talk about how the hell do we get RC out of this game and fast.

In Magical Girls U Pick, RC had all the scum correctly pegged on Day 1.

In Magia Record, RC nailed all the scum players within Day 1 and 2. It was pretty brutal and he forced all of town and managed to get them to sheep him.

RC isn't your typical Paragon player but he is definitely a Paragon tier player. He doesn't serenade town, he dictates the lynches. And he has amazing accuracy doing so. His white seal butt asserts dominance in every mafia game. He's probably the most deserving of Paragon this year.

This was going to be an RC Paragon nomination. I will just add an addendum to Bitmap’s nomination to get it to 3 games.

In Baton Pass, RC correctly found all scum on Day 1 and Day 2. The only reason he did not lynch all the scum is because of a trust tell committed by one of the scum members and having his attention diverted by his hydra partner. When RC is alone and has full ability to play how he wants to play, he is devastating to play against as scum. While RC is not without his faults (he is quite an emotional Player), he deserves to be inconsideration for Paragon this year.

In Public Cop, RC found both scum literally within 3 pages of the game starting. I don’t think I have ever played with a person who is that good at catching scum. RC is so good that there have been times when people thought he was cheating because of how accurate he is. His consistency across YEARS let alone the games this year shows he is deserving of a Paragon nomination. It isn’t our fault he can tap into the collective consciousness of the universe and figure out who is scum that way.

In short, ban RC to Ubers.

You should link the third game.

RC's start in Magical Girls UPick was mislynch town, vig agreed with one of his reads and vigged scum, put town at L-1 day 2 but clear it because of the claim. I don't know how that is "RC had scum correctly pegged on day 1".

Oh maybe you flip flopped magia record and magical girls?

I think he's referring to the fact that I correctly cleared over half of the list at EoD1 based on the Evenstar wagon.
2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.
