Scummies Nominations 2019

[popsofctown]

It should say that instead, then, that's not an equivalent statement. They're both very positive statements. It's not necessary to exaggerate the truth to demonstrate you play well as town.

[RadiantCowbells]

I agree. I'm just trying to make sense of it

[Bitmap]

I'll fix it more tonight. I got back home at like 4AM and wrote this and still kind of out of it.

nth RC paragon

[popsofctown]

How many nths does it take for a nomination to be in consideration?

Asking for a friend who wants to keep her support for RC paragon informal to better stay butthurt about losing a game.

But really I am kind of confused about the nthing dynamic since some categories like White Knight seem like they might not have enough people familiar with the performance to nth it even if it deserves to win, so I would hope they're not required, but Ali posted "bold your nths" a bunch of times so it must be important.

Are they used when a category gets crowded enough it'd be too much work to judge them all?

[Flavor Leaf]

Pretty sure it doesn’t even need to be Nth’d. That’s just to add extra oomph to the Nom without having to do a separate write up.

[popsofctown]

Who are the judges?

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. 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. year.

nom doesn't count it needs 1 more game

Unfortunately the other townie, Chenn wrongly sr me, so he successfully tried to force a tie vote over scum!Dunn’s vehement objections. Chenn eventually hammered me though but it might not have happened without eth0s’ ingenious tie vote strategy.

they’re not required but people love to nth things even if it doesn’t make a difference in the end.
It got to a point where there was so much constant nths that I decided to hear people out but I tell people to bold nths because at a young age, I was blinded by feral crane hawks.

The rules do not say 3 games need to be linked, just that three games need to be submitted. I submitted 4 games so I don’t see the problem.

This ploy and eth0s 1v1 with Dunn and none of us completely understanding the mod’s ruling on the tie votes. Scum!Dunn and Chenn also had two votes on eth0s. This vote was one of the most exciting nailbiters I had ever seen.

pretty easy fix either way

Thank you Dann!
See Oversoul, was that so hard?

[Alisae]

Also Dann you should link Baton Pass since that was referenced in the nomination

You already submitted this nom in the correct category, Moment of Brilliance, its not being counted.

[Nancy Drew 39]

I wasn’t sure which one was more applicable, so I decided to submit both. I didn’t intend to have him nommed for both categories.
