Actually most of the awards do have a nickname, some are more common e.g. paragon and don as opposed to the 'Rube Goldberg' award (do you know what that is offhand? :P )

I think that's best setup? I remember seeing dramonic had it.

I think we should have a scummy showcase in people's profiles. I'm going to add that
if
when I design something :shifty:

That would be kind of neat, would it be when you click on someone's profile? I mean I don't think you'd want it showing up the whole time to the left.

This might be a bad idea, or I may have missed it, but where did 'Best Mish Mash User' go?

I have a few people I would like to nominate for that.

Exactly.

UN, would you mind if I split the 'profile box' thing into its own thread? It's kind of on-topic here, but it's really a more sitewide thing...

we run best mish mash game through scummies already. None of the SSC really feels qualified to talk about mish mash games or categories. If you guys want that, come up with a couple of awards and we can write them into the ceremony next year with a separate group to handle nominations and judging

I'd be willing to give a few tips and tricks.

That said, I'd consider you qualified, Reck. You hosted a nominated game, and join Big Brother and Survivor games on multiple occasions.

I think it was first half? A lot of it was lost to the crash, iirc.

Yeah of course not, that'd be stupid.

It'd be like a trophy box inside people's profiles when you click their name.

Overworked, Underpaid


I also like the Tesla idea, but it's probably a little obscure. He's not the first thing that comes to mind.

Other things discussed in the SSC were "Rodney King", "Dan Harmon Award", and "The Barack Hussein Obama Award for Outstanding Excellence in Contribution to the Mafiascum.net Community At Large"

Yeah Sleepythan, but it's obscure enough that people wouldn't get it, and then the other people would get sick of explaining it, and it's not funny enough to make people feel cool about having an inside joke about just how very ironic it is.

And maybe I'm wrong about that point, but it's not like I didn't realize the irony inherent in the suggestion lol

This makes me think of "Name Should Be In Orange", instead.

Which is about the most ironic Scummy nickname, anymore...

Let's change that to
Red
, btw? For the sake of confused scummers everywhere.

And if that's too close to what the other title, then Community Contributor could be something like
Life of the Party
or
Mr(s). Chairman/President
or
Mafia Facilitator
(sounds like a role? that was the idea at least)

But really, what separates the 2 awards? It's kinda the same thing now that I think of it.
