Scummies 2016 Nomination Thread

Hi, I'm not here for nomination talk because I am in no position to. I just have a question.

When someone has won an award, does anything change in their profile? I am thinking specifically about the last time they logged in.

I don't thinks so?

They get a banner that replaces their custom title tho.

I'll ask.

So no one seemed to have done this so here I go

I nominated Boem_u_dusi, Transcend, Zachstralkita, and kraska77 for

Kodak Award

for what happened in NY 196.

I need not to describe why, just click the link and start reading.

Seconded or thirded depending. Yeah, that's pretty funny.

I had a thought (that will prolly get shit on). What if we had an award for best IC (inexperienced challenged)?

[LicketyQuickety]

we used to

Why isn't that a thing anymore? Could help to make ICs better, which would lead to a better (more educated [?]) newbie player base.

there's the reasoning for removing best IC

The

Best IC Player

category is being rolled into

Professor Mafia

, and the definition for the award is changing. The change for this award was two-fold. Number one, we saw a dearth of nominees and competition in the Best IC category and realized it was mostly the same one or two players being nominated every year. We didn't want the award to get stale, as we felt putting in time to help people learn to play the game was valuable and should be rewarded. But... number two, Professor Mafia was already a role that, in essence, rewarded people for contributing to the mafia community by helping people learn or understand the game better! With Professor Mafia being a Body of Work award anyway, we think allowing contributions as an IC in a newbie game to be considered in the judging process will allow for a wider array of nominees and keep the judging for the category away from being a contest of "Whose one-off theory thread was bigger this year?"

In addition

, we are stripping the following from the "Professor Mafia" award:

• Best Contribution to Mafia Discussion/The wiki
  -> Best Teacher & Contributor to Mafia Discussion
  
• Contribution to the wiki will no longer be considered for the award
  
• Judges will focus on body of work more than a single individual thread or post

Thanks
