Indeed. I'm not a frequent consumer of Open Games (like one, ever), but to make such a transition seamlessly without any bitching in either MD or SI is awesome.

pesco47

.

[Lord Gurgi]

I'd like to resurrect my idea for the awards,

The Bus Driver Award, for best bus

and the new,

The "Look a Distraction!" Award, for best derailing of a scumbuddy lynch

.

[Korts]

"Look, a three-headed monkey!" would be a better name and a cool reference for the best derailing of a scumbuddy lynch award.

EDIT: but I do support both of them, although those awards would mean even more hard work for the judges...

[pacman281292]

I also agree with both.

[Vi]

I nominate

Pesco47

for

Best SK

.

Game here: http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9400

I second this.
Although how come Pesco gets all the cool gambit opportunities? Maybe I'm not trying hard enough or thinking the right ways :v

[Max]

If there is a bussing award, LlamaFluff gets it for Mini 628. Let me find that.

Right there.
He busses me on Day 1 and Maxwellhouse on Day 2 and then survives to endgame for a scum win. Can't be done any better than that.

[Incognito]

The Bus Driver Award, for best bus

The "Look a Distraction!" Award, for best derailing of a scumbuddy lynch

Why would those two specific scum tactics require their own awards? Couldn't those fall into the Best Performance (Scum) category just fine?

If categories were opened up for specific tactics, you'd probably have to create further and further subdivisions of awards outside of those two as well. Also, how about town tactics like Best Case Against Scum (Town) or Best Lightning Rod (Town)? The possibilities would be endless, which is probably why the awards are so generalized.

[shaft.ed]

"Look Something Shiney" is clearly superior.

And I don't think farside needs any more noms, but nice work. I didn't even notice you took over the queue, I thought you were just really eager to get your open games goin

I'm always eager to get my game going. Very understandable.

Like say, Best Mafia Catcher, or Most Cunning Manipulation. Am I missing something?

Those are recognition of the best overall of the year. Best performance is recognition of the best single performance. Therein is the distinction between those and arbitrary awards. It's just one step away from "best case" and "best lightning rod" to "best use of the word 'pudding' in context" and "most appropriate use of an emoticon (town)".

[Yosarian2]

I don't think there should be an award for "best" bus.

[Adel]

nominate

"most appropriate use of an emoticon (town)" and "most appropriate use of an emoticon (scum)" as awards for this year's scummies.
