Whether or not luck has gotten him this far has nothing to do with it; the fact is, he wins when he's mafia, and to pass it off as if it wasn't true pins you as the current penultimate of douchebaggery.Thok wrote:If we assume scum winning percentage is 50%, there's about a 1/200 chance of having a scum record of 10-1 or 11-0 in their games (and really, since we'd have this discussion but backwards if the records were flipped, I should include the possibility of 1-10 or 0-11 and make is about 1/100.) That's good but we have a lot of people on this site, and I wouldn't be shocked if a person randomly was 10-1 or 11-0 or even better.
There's also the question of whether Elias's is actually good, or getting somewhat lucky. (Probably the answer is a combination of both.)
You'll have better luck finding some particularly cool scum gambit that Elias pulled off and basing a title off of that. It would likely give a more interesting title also.
I can't help it if people fail basic statistics.

I'll admit to that and say that I would like to find some way to make it up after my schedule clears up.

If you want to reference the McCain thread, something like "Socialists are scum" strikes me as a better way to do it. And that's assuming Lord Gurgi wants a title based off of that thread.
Added titles for Simenon and Nocmen.
There is nothing that defines him enough to give him a title yet. It makes more sense to wait for a good title then force through some terrible half-assed title like most of the recent ones are.Oman wrote:Can we get Andy a title, the guy has been around and done enough to deserve one...
Because doing so fosters more terrible, half-assed titles, which is contrary to the goal of titles themselves.Lawrencelot wrote:Why not suggest some terrible half-assed title and change it when we got a better one?

DGB started it in one game and then k-scope mentioned that here. Myself and others started saying it and refering to it with my play a few times. Then I didn't here it forever until last night on irc. I'm actually feeling rather indifferent about it now though there isn't really anything better said here. Though having my title deal with my coin of the phrase "neighbors"as scum masons is also something I had pondered when gorckat suggested it for me.
I still think Gurgi should just be Albatross. When-ever I get 4 strikes in bowling its called an albatross and whenever I fail to kill 4 times as a scumo I call it an Albatross.

Thanks Andy, you said exactly what I was thinking. My title is special to me, because it goes back onto sometting that was not only hilariously stupid, but represents my playstyle at the time. I'm sure I would feel much less so if it were decided I should get one then they came up withsomething.
