Scummies 2007 Nominations Closed!

[Thok]

Nominate alko for the

Hanibal Lecter Award

-Best SK for Committee Mafia

[Thok]

Both Himalayan and Futurama ended in 2006, thus neither is eligible for a 2007 scummy.

(Both would have been good nominations for last year's awards, and I think MBL was nominated.)

[Thok]

Nominate Mr. Stoofer and Space Monkey Mafia for "Best Implementation of a Concept".

(I feel like this was a well-designed game but not a well-played game, and I want a nomination that specifically honors the set up design. A game with a uninformed majority that believes it's scum is hard to set up/balance well.)

[Thok]

I think Funniest role claim is more appropriate for PJ's claim than Best role claim.

[Thok]

Best Implementation of a Concept is not a Scummie award. If you want to nominate it, I'd say that Best Role is the way to go.

I'm making up an award to fit what I think best describes what should be honored. Phoebus will hack out the details later. (Best Role might be right, but somewhat misses the point.)

[Thok]

I'll nominateJoke PBug and MOS for "Least likely to be nominated for a scummy".

Of course, this completelyTotally disqualifies them from winningCelebrating.

[Thok]

Different Awards

:

* Best Implementation of a Concept

-Space Monkeys Mafia, hosted by Mr Stoofer. Nominated. Seconded.

* Best Setup

I think the idea is that Best Setup is what I mean by best implementation of a Concept. I'd certainly have no problem nominating Space Monkey for a Best Setup award.

[Thok]

Dude, both BJ and Fritz are just cheap imitations of Internet Stranger. Back in my day, we went

Vote IS

and we liked it. And then we had to walk uphill both ways to get a lynch.

[Thok]

As a bit of silliness, I think "Freelance Mercenary" or "Hired Gun" works well for a name of a best substitute award.

[Thok]

If we're making any attempt revamping the Proflic award, I'd like to nominate Glork for most prolific. Crossreferencing with the last update of the MeMe 6000 thread (from 12/7/06), Glork has had around 3000 posts so far this year. I find it likely that Glork has the most words posted in mafia games for the last year.

[Thok]

@Thok I think PJ would own the "most words posted" category.

Emphatic Fourth of Thesp in the BMC Category.

PJ has about 1300 posts in the time period measured. As verbose as PJ is, I don't think he is 3 times as verbose as Glork.

[Thok]

Nominate: MeMe
Award: Behind the Scenes

MeMe's routinely modding 10+ newbies, in addition to handling both mini lists. Nuff said.

[Thok]

To add to the jester debate: What if the jester loses if he gets lynched, but wins if he gets daykilled or nightkilled? Would this twist make the role acceptable?

What's the reason for the role? Why would you

want

a role that works like that?

Glork's trying to run a game with a bunch of roles like this (Martyr mafia).

[Thok]

Who's running this?

Probably mith, given that Phoebus isn't around.

He'll select 5 or so people who are representative of MS to decide awards, then write up a massive award show based off of the results/events of the past year.

(And it will all be done in secret! You'll never have a say in who's been selected to the committee. Mu-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!)

Uh, pay no attention to the above parenthetical comment. It serves no purpose except for humor.

The event probably will run concurrent with the Oscars (Emmys? one of the award shows.)

[Thok]

Has anybody nominated Gaspar (Glork+Primate) for Best Roleclaim for Dantes in Fresno? If not, I'm nominating him for that.
