Scummies 2019 Discussion
Welcome, one and all, to the 2019 Scummies and Mashies! We, the Scummies Steering Committee, have been working busily behind the scenes to prepare this year's festivities in a timely and tidy manner, and we are eager to share the fruits of our labor with you all. Before we properly begin, we have a few announcements to make.
First, you may notice that the ceremony thread is locked. In previous years, the ceremony and discussion ran concurrently, but we feel that it will be easier to read and enjoy in an unadulterated format. We invite you to discuss developments in this year's story and the Scummies/Mashies in general here. As various awards are given out, new threads will be spun off for those awards, and separate discussion will be open there.
Second, this year we have made a concerted effort to bring the Scummies and the Mashies closer together, combining the festivities into a single event. The SSC has restructured itself to incorporate our brethren from the MishMash more fully, and we look forward to further cooperation.
Third, there have been some mixed messages regarding the schedule for the Scummies. Awards will be given out over the course of the next five days, culminating in a grand finale on Friday, February 21st. The full schedule may be found below.
Fourth, the SSC have decided that in the case of especially close races, Honorable Mentions will be given out. Honorable Mentions will not be entitled to a banner, but have been deemed worthy of special recognition and praise nonetheless. All banners will be given out at the end of the week.
Fifth, at the end of the week, the SSC ask you to stick around and engage with us on the future of the Scummies. We have been discussing some rules changes internally, and are prepared to open the matter to the public at large.
Finally, we would like to profusely thank all of those who gave their time and energy to volunteer with judging and administrative tasks. We could not have put this on without you!
Enjoy the Scummies and Mashies!

Is it too late to pitch in? If you're running a bit behind and could use more bodies I have a substantial amount of free time I wasn't sure if I'd have a week agoIn post 17, xofelf wrote:We apologize for that, something came up with our writing team.

Thank you for the offers of assistance, but the problem has been largely resolved. The SSC member in charge of finalizing the ceremony and announcements ran into a personal problem in the last day or so, and the schedule fell through the cracks. Please accept our apologies, and we hope that the quality of the product will in some way make amends for the delay. The schedule has been modified to accommodate for the false start, and after some discussion, we have decided to extend it into the weekend. As further compensation for the stumble, Pine has offered to run a Scummies-themed marathon Mafia game to take place after the final installment of our story, and the Mish Mash team is looking into a similar event they would put on that day. Please join us after for a live discussion on the future of the Scummies and Mashies. This is your best opportunity to have candid input on awards you would like to see added, removed, or changed in any way.-

Can someone please tell me what exactly is the difference between Paperback Writer, Rube Goldberg and Mad Scientist? Thanks.**********We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it.

Rube Goldberg is about the setup - it's more of a technical award about how everything interacts with one another.
Paperback Writer is about flavour - it's more of a writing award.
Mad Scientist is about a specific role - it's another technical award, but is about how a 'normal' mechanic has been altered to make it more interesting/unusual.Trans rights are human rights.-
