Scummies 2009 Nominations

[Maemuki]

I nominate

Haylen

for Best Flavor Text in Open #177 Monks and Masons.

Seconded

Thirded.

Read the game. You'll thank me.

[Scien]

I nominate Haylen for Best Flavor Text in Open #177 Monks and Masons.

Forthed so much.

[CSL]

nth VRK for Behind the Scenes

Best list-Mod I have ever dealt with IMO.

[Papa Zito]

I'd like to

nominate Thok for the Don Corleone award

for his play in mith's CTIII game.

It wasn't until the end that I realized what an absolutely stellar job he'd done (and I was on his team!). He was completely under everyone's radar; so far under in fact that several players hasn't even mentioned his name in thread (see this post). His kill was a strategy decision and came about via a mechanic in the game, but had he survived to endgame he would have been impossible to pin anything on and I have no doubt he would have won.

[Thok]

When does the scummy ceremony takes place?

Typically they're set for the same day as the Oscars.

Judging hasn't even started yet. I assume we are aiming for the end of january. Or march 7th -.-

[Vi]

The Scummies Planning team will be updating the nomination list soon to reflect these changes. We've got a little more time this year, but expect nominations to close sometime in January.

EDIT: Don't forget - nominations that aren't thirded aren't judged!

Looks like I don't stand a chance of having malt's nomination seconded. That does kinda make sense though, thinking on it .

Funniest Role Claim

- "George W Bush" Award

• Xylthixlm in Medieval Mafia - nominated by Xylthixlm, seconded by Kairyuu

Nobody thirded this?

Third xylthixlm in Medieval Mafia

[Mr. Flay]

Don't forget - nominations that aren't thirded aren't judged!

Are you serious? Where is this mentioned?

[Vi]

I'm pretty sure that's the implication of "we don't pay attention to fourthing, fifthing, or Nthing of nominations".

[Max]

That means if I want to win a prize I have to spam like hell

I thought they didn't count fourthing onwards was just because that wouldn't make a difference

Oh, that's not how I read that at all. In previous years there have been fifths, sixths, sevenths, which just spam up the thread. Mith's point is that it doesn't add anything to the nomination to have those vocal supports.

If he's said that thirds are required or the Scummy Planning Team has decided something else, that's cool.

*shrug* When in doubt, assume I don't know what I'm talking about.

[mith]

Flay is correct, though in practice games/players/whatever with only a single nomination are typically eliminated quickly unless one of the judges makes a strong case for them.

Nominations will close in about two weeks.

I've mostly got the judges selected, and will probably be setting up the forums for them Monday so that they can get started.

[animorpherv1]

nominate Cybele for MishMash user

The only one I can depend on to be nice and kind 100% of the time.

[alexhans]

mmm... But that means that some players will advertise themselves to get these things? lame.

I didn't know this was a popularity contest after all...

[Raskol]

It's an awards system with nominations made by the general public, and judges drawn from the general public given no clear, objective standards by which to judge.

Of course it's a popularity contest.

Advertising yourself is in poor taste, but sometimes it's better to do that if you believe you deserve a nomination that nobody has thought of. [size=0]*kisses that one goodbye*[/size]

Thanks, but I was already nominated for Professor Mafia for something else.

Nominate Vi for Professor Mafia

[Oman]

Seconded

On that shit, Vi!

[Haylen]

Where does mith get his judges from, anyway?
