Was it the thing about "they are 4 the site and awards should be to help promote the site." I mean, a little, yeah, but awards should also be a badge of honor for the winner though they are currently a bit of a joke.Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

awards don't exist for the people who receive the awards
like paragon doesn't exist so that someone can brag about being paragon
it exists so that everyone else has someone that they can look up to and learn from2019 stats: Town WR 76.7%, overall WR 81.667%, 1 scum defeat involving a major mod error in lylo vs 8 scum wins.-

the problem is not enough judges, but the reason there are no judges is because the whole thing is generally ignored and not emphasized. The awards could mean something huge, but they don't because its a feedback loop. Why would anyone want to seriously judge awards that aren't properly taken care of?
I don't think we need more awards necessarily, we need to make the system more encouraging. It should feel incredible to win, be nominated, etc.third best scummer of all time-

*something something the people in charge of the awards take them way too seriously*In post 86, Tammy wrote:Eh I think the banner issue for the best town team was misguided. Recognizing a town that against the odds had enough members who were able to come together to eliminate scum and win, sometimes perfectly, seems more important for the site than getting concerned that lurkers, who know they were carried 90% of the time, getting a banner.Having that many banners floating around for what basically amounts to "congratulations on getting a town role PM while X, Y, and Z were your alignment" devalues the Scummies all around, so the award has got to go.Showhttp://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Mhsmith0
Conq: you, sir, are great at being town.
BATMAN: Only jugg was the only one we didn’t scum read at least not me
Quick: There is little to no chance this slot is Power-Wolfing.

If there's a bad player on a sports team be sure that they do not get a superbowl ring, a world series ring or whatever they get in the NBA finals"Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
