my argument towards that btw
is that neither ank nor I would be as townread as we were if we didn't bus D1
our being townreads was fundamentally built off of the sacrifice of the grapes slot
i led the bus, ank!slot had the lolhammer that got the slot townread
grapes may not have played in the late game but they were integral to our success in the late game and a slot getting bussed shouldn't mean that it isn't considered for an award like this imo

interestingly i refused to nominate an old game with drealmerz7 and mariar and a few others as scum for best scum game a year or two back b/c i felt like maria would be cut for the award because she was lynched early even though her lynch is the primary reason that scum won.

i'm not arguing in favor of or against a nomination. i'm arguing that the nomination should include an additional player. i think as part of the team that should be something that i should have a weigh-in on?

In post 513, the worst wrote:i'll do a writeup for paragon-ank if needed; the only point i can think of against her is that she's so scary scum tend to kill her before she can correctly paragonify games
Please do this we have 0 paragon noms
Also y'all should do DC noms as well

Sorry but the slot is tainted and he doesn't deserve it when the reason I couldn't get traction on the slot when I correctly SR it was because of another user claiming that they would have replaced out if they were scum
Which violates the rule against discussing replacements as well as possibly the trust tell one but either way, nah.

I would like to be excluded from contention for DC because I would like to judge the category and I've already won the award.
Also I genuinely don't believe that I deserve it given how much I've phoned in some of my scum games and I was team nommed for the two games that I think I overperformed in anyway.

Even when you lost like the mini normal, only one townie actually correctly scumread you and i think if it wasn't someone with as much ability to project their reads it wouldn't have mattered.

like I don't think the fact that you lost that game from a mechanically difficult position with only one townie reading you correctly is a mark against you? Idk.

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.

She got a role in the planning stage that, if town fell sufficiently far behind as represented by the mercy bar, gave her several dayvigs to make up for that. She correctly scumread 3/4 scum from the very early stages of the game despite misreading Papyrus and she managed to stay under the radar enough with all her correct reads that when mislynched enough consecutively to give her her 3 vig shots, she hit 2 out of 3 scum and avoided hitting either of the scum with bulletproof modifiers. It was a very delicate path to walk not eating the nightkill with several correct reads and I believe that if she had tried to play more forcefully, town would have simply ignored her reads and mislynched anyway and she would have ended up nightkilled, so I think that she played this role masterfully.

Regarding some other respected scum players, how I would sum up FL is that people scumread him and then he uses his charisma to make them vote town anyway. How I would sum up myself/Pine playstyles is that we get scumread but we are already executing a strategy that is already several phases in and by the time we're getting scumread it was already part of ~the plan~. I would classify Buki as being more similar to MariaR in playstyle than any of us, where they simply... do not get scumread as scum no matter what they do. And unlike many players who are capable of being very towny as scum but are completely incapable of pushing scum wincondition at the same time, Buki is fully capable of pushing town in the wrong direction while being so townread that it is essentially impossible to get townies to lynch them. While yes they did benefit from Shoshin's antics in Baton Pass I don't think their success in that game was solely based on that because I was in the exact same situation with them in 2070. I was mechanically confirmed town and telling everyone that yes everyone else was town so Buki is definitely scum and I despite screaming for day phases to lynch him couldn't get anyone to vote him. Town players were literally considering that I was falsely confirmed town rather than that they were just wrong on that slot. So yes, 2070 was a loss because of bad scum nightkill choices and that ruins his perfect record. However, I was the only townie who caught him both in that game and in Baton Pass and given that they have no other scum defeats to speak of besides this 1 game where no one including GuyInFreezer, a very strong town player, agreed to lynch them until I mechanically confirmed him as scum after killing their partners, I think that his sole defeat is if anything testament to the kind of advantage town needs to scrape a win against them. DC nom for sure.

I don't have too much that I feel I need to say since I feel like this nom stands on its own merits. FakeGod mods a lot of games, he mods them excellently, and when the games become shitshows as they unfortunately sometimes do it's never the fault of the game design. This obviously isn't the spiciest nomination but I absolutely think he is a contender.

I offer this nomination in the same spirit of The Worst's win last year. She is not the best town player, but she wins a solid number of her town games. She is not the best scum player either, but she wins a decent number of her scum games as well. I think that she is a rising star candidate based on the fact that she has very quickly gone from "wait, who?" to someone whose name even people who don't play mafia anymore and don't know any new players who aren't a duckling will know. She plays mish mash games, she is very social in postgames, she has a high level of general exposure in the community and that to me makes her a strong candidate for Rising Star. She's still a good player, just that that isn't primarily what this nomination is based off of to me.

I thought that this was just a brilliant setup in a lot of ways. I loved how it executed the theme, I loved the roles, I thought that the communication gimmick was extremely well done and the roles did feel versatile and varied despite all being along the same lines. I think a lot of gimmick setups like this fall flat very hard but this one worked out very well thanks to NSG's great design work and I think that this is a serious contender for the best setup of the year.
