If there's some kind of "best single play" award, PokerFace should definitely be up for it for that gambit, imo. I was like... okay, now I have to explain why a scumbag was absolutely fine committing to a plan that autowins for the town, lol.Succinctness is pro-town.

If you want to nominate me for something relating to that claim, you can go right ahead.
But I feel part of the praise I am getting for it is a little undeserving. I originally planned to get elderad or the slightly possible incog scum lynched. Then I was like wait a minute... niether one is acting like scum now. They both agree to a gauranteed town win? WTF?! Who's scum then? What the hell is going on here?! And I didn't figure that part out until I was dead. Luckily the rest of the town figure it out later.
I didn't plan the result I got. Kinda fell into it. Abandoning the gambit when I did was right play. Following through with it would have given me a dunce cap. The entire thing looked like a huge screw up to me until things were over. Like I was on some massive drug trip or having a drunken haze ("It sounded like a completly good idea at the time officer") and then I woke up hung over with a 40 million dollar winning lottery ticket in my pocket. How did that get there?Last edited by PokerFace on Thu Oct 16, 2008 2:57 pm, edited 3 times in total.When I joined this site, I was a software tester for mobile business applications and the song PokerFace was not yet written by Lady Gaga
Now I test lottery and gambling software as my job. It's funny how my life has turned out. Somewhere a Time Traveler is laughing madly-

Nominate: AwesomePants
Award: Most Enjoyable Game (Mini normal)
Game: Linky
Provided the most useful and well updated first post ever, created a surprising game, excellent light-touch modding that worked brilliantly with the involved players, provided enjoyable flavour text, and harnessed the set up and modding to create just the uncertainty needed for the game balance to work.
Will certainly be on the look-out for more games modded by AP.-

Nominate:Shy Guy
AwardBest replacement
Game:Open 83 - Polygamist Mafia
He replaced in thinking that all of the townies were scum and that all of the scum were townies. He was openminded enough to realise that he was utterly wrong, even after writing 38 long posts presentign his case.
If he had suffered from any of the typical townie tunnel-vision, the scum would've won, for sure.-

Because best bus is like best roleclaim, it's not going to be lumped in with Best Performance by an Individual either.Mr. Flay wrote:

how would you separate best bus from best scum performance then? I'd wager a guess that most best scum performance nominations included the nominee bussing.Lord Gurgi wrote:

ok, so self-nominations are hated by everyone. I get that.
A game recently ended where Talitha, DrippingGoofball, rajrhcpfreak PookyTheMagicalBear, mathcam, Glork, elvis_knits, Macros, Nonny, Axelrod, Phoebus, and Werebear were town. (some of them were replacements for each other)
Armlx, logicticus and I were scum together, and we all survived.
one player wrote me a PM after the game saying,I'm reading the scum forum with interest and just noted this:
You totally got me there, that's for sure.Adel wrote:ok, lets kill pooky then, and hope pooky analysis points away from us.
the scum-team QT thread http://www.quicktopic.com/41/H/tqSaxyB7hLWP
This is me trolling for my first individual or team scummy nomination for good play.
I love each and every one of you.-
