Scummies 2011 Nominations

[Amrun]

She, but thank you very much. I'm very excited about this. It was a really fun game.

[Amrun]

Nominate the town of Open 299 - demonhybrids mafia game of fun amazingness, for real for Best Town Performance

, because holy shit.

The mafia didn't even do THAT bad of a job. They were just wrecked by night actions and quick thinking.

I want to second this, but I was part of the town, so I don't think it was allowed.

It was fun as shit, though.

Nominate DeityKabuto for funniest role claim for his posts in this game leading to this post:

There are no words for how funny this was in context, but one post just cannot show you.

Vi, for the record, yours was also hilarious but I remember you saying you were going to nominate this.

And I also thought you might like to know that DK is imitating Vibot in other games. >.>

[Amrun]

I never minded the robot.

Oh this is good, although I guess I favour 'Funny because I'm actually funny' over 'Funny because I'm being a retard' type noms, so Vi wins.

Inclined to agree, but it at least deserved an honorable mention!

[Amrun]

Thanks for the nomination. I'm honored!

Also, sorry town of Color Concentration, but I won't be Nthing it.

Third Thor for Funniest Player

[Amrun]

Town played so badly in AMG due to the brilliant play from scum, unlike in WF mafia where town just went DERP WE WANT SCUM TO WIN.

Considering I was watching the game from a scum perspective, the things they were setting up were just beautiful to watch.

I actually thought it was the other way around 100%, though both had a bit of derp.

nth mith for best manipulation

The way he voted for Llamarble was the ONLY thing that ruled out Llamarble/mith as the scumteam even though I had all three dead to rights from day one. x.x It was a really brilliant and risky move.

nth team mafia for best mechanic

[Amrun]

He should've been lynched D2 though. :/

And I don't see how the scumteam of AMG derped anywhere. As said, they played incredibly from a scum perspective (eg. scum v. scum D1). The scumteam as a whole deserves best manipulation.

I tried so hard to lynch mith day 2.

AMG scumteam did a good job. I just thought town could have done a bit better than they did.

3rd/nth Chamber for name should be in orange

[Amrun]

Nth LLD for Most Improved

If it is determined she is ineligible for the newbie scummy.

[Amrun]

Nominate:CrashTextDummie for the "Johnny Cochrane" best roleclaim award

For normal large 136, where when the SK had fakeclaimed doc, the scum team decided he was probably lying based on pure logic, setup speculation, and scumhunting on their part, and CTD successfully counterclaimed him, fooling the entire game into thinking CTD was a confirmed town doctor for days, and nearly giving the scum team the win. We managed to lynch him in endgame despite that, but it was a very close thing.

https://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.p ... start=1875

Killerjester is not a doctor. This is a counterclaim.

Nth

As the mod, I was really impressed by how the scumteam, and particularly CTD, worked out the roles of the players. In fact, he had most of the town convinced that there was a scum rolecop - but it was just CTD's deductive skills!

This counterclaim was a really brilliant move, and here is the scum QT that details that decision: http://www.quicktopic.com/46/H/WS7cn9akX7C

I think I would like to nominate

Yosarian2

for Paragon of Mafia Catchers based on the Death of Reaper Charlie. http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopi ... start=1875

Starting on Day two to the end of the game, Yosraian helped town lynch anti-town everyday, successfully navigated three days of mislynch or lose, and helped town win despite being one vote away from losing multiple times. It was very good play on his part.

Also,

3rding Yos.

His voting record speaks for himself. He only placed a vote on town ONCE (on day 1, no less) throughout all 7 days of the game and was instrumental in the lynching of several flavors of scum. He was in a really hard 1v1 at the end - a VT vs a claimed doctor. It takes a special kind of player to convince the town to lynch a claimed doctor over a claimed VT at LyLo. He did an excellent job.

So, Officially

Nominating CrashTextDummie for Best Performance In A Losing Cause

. (MBL might also be a worthy nomination, here. The reasons are much the same for him as they would be for CTD.) Same Game, but done officially.

I'm an advocate of describing nominations, but I'm a bit speechless right now, so I'll let the game speak for itself; it really has to be seen to be believed. (Might edit in a full explanation later.)

Also

2nd this

, but I think the award might be more appropriate for

the entire scumteam

, with the exception of the Parama/Bowser slot. MrBuddyLee, Hydra (Magister Ludi + Thor), and CTD all performed very well, though they lost after a long and arduous LyLo.

They made use of their daytalk to coach each other through claims and arguments and supported each other very well. There was lots of synergy within this group. CrashTextDummie was the last man standing and really put up a valiant fight. His excellent roleclaim kept him alive that long and almost won him the game.

[Amrun]

There were two mostly confirmed town players left in LyLo and MyLo along with Yosarian, and they did not even vote at ALL Day 6, forcing a no lynch. They didn't decide, "Hey, let's no lynch." They just sat there paralyzed and watched Yos and CTD battle.

And MBL was gunsmithed but otherwise would never have been lynched - and was so very town looking that he very nearly won the 1 v 1 vs the gunsmith. Yosarian was the person who turned that tide.

[Amrun]

2nd/3rd/nth whatever Lost Butterfly for best flavor

[Amrun]

What game...?

[Amrun]

Nominate Hoopla for Name should be in Orange.

When she took over as Open List Mod, she really cleaned things up. See this thread in particular, along with the new C9++ setup.
I can't believe Hoopla hasn't even been nominated yet, cuz she really deserves something.

Second.

Hoopla's been awesome.
