I'm going to
Nominate the Mafia of Mafia 117 for Best Performance Scum Group


http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopi ... =1&t=14720

Absolutely floored the town, killed off two of the game's three power roles on Day 1, with RedCoyote sealing the win on Day 2 by dissuading a lynch on his predecessor. Claimed gunsmith after some shenanigans and got the final LYLO mislynch.

Newbie 956

Newbie 933 was the one where he is BAD. Like, his play was HORRENDOUS.

Its not an extremely amazing improvement. But its pretty impressive.

Listen, they did own the town. but not because they were excellent players. The town frikkin gave them the win. With all the stupid caps lawk raging and lack of activity and apathy people had it was obv the scum were gonna win. just read the link and I don't like the Nomination. If the town had played better this would be a def yes but...they didn't.

Nominate the town of The house of Claudius for best performance Pro-Town team


During N1, 3 of the 4 remaining townies are known to have accurate reads on who the two scum were. Scum didn't have a chance.

I would like to nominate Kast for Most Cunning Manipulator
in Physics Mafia. He was part of the mafia in a neighbor pair with a townie and he completely manipulated the townie into being almost blindly convinced he was also town. He played very good all throughout the game and he read as town to most people and he used his skills to almost convince me to blindly vote for the townie in lylo. Eventually, he manipulated the other townie so good that no matter what I have said I would have still ended up losing the game.
The Mini-Theme: Lie to Me Mafia is accepting replacements. PM me to sign up.

V/LA for a few days while I'm moving.

A self-vote at lylo to trap the remaining scum? Ballsy indeed.

nth nominatation for LynchMePls for Best Newbie.


I've played a few games with him and he always played very, very well. Look at Mini 1008: Mega Man 1 Mafia, he manage to own the town. His town games are also great.

Nominations or winners? Because if it was nominations, I oppose all of them as well. If it was winners, then people forgot what the award actually means. If it's just for one game, it should be more in "Best Performance". There's a reason we have Body of Work as well as single game scummies.

@ wraith -

Well I do genuinely appreciate being nominated for a scummy, I've decided that I don't think I deserve one for this game. I made a lot of blunders that almost cost the town everything, and it was sheer luck that you guys blundered right back. Anything could have gone wrong, and I definitely didn't have anything to do with the night actions working out so well for town.

I'm very pleased to have been right about all three scum D1, but like has been discussed, it was mostly a tactical maneuver that wound up paying off enormously. I don't take too much pride in having figured out the scum early either; one was an idiot, one I've played way too much with, and the other was being blatantly bussed by the one I've played too much with. I also took a very reckless approach to things, and it would have cost town the game if I had been wrong about any of you, or if the town had been anymore cynical. I feel like this game was really lucky, and I don't want to win a scummy until I feel like I've actually played a strategically solid game throughout.

So while I thank you profusely for your compliments, I wish to respectfully decline the nomination.

Finding scum is only part of good town play. It doesn't matter if you find every one of them in RVS if you can't get them lynched.

Fourthed,
Reaper did an OUTSTANDING job with flavor and the sort. It was also a pretty darn good setup.

That's exactly what happened. I called them both out in RVS, but I thought shotty was the third scum and lynched him because he was an easier case. Then when he flipped town, I kind of lost trust in my reads.....
