Second Zorblag for best replacement

I'm sheeping robo (and I've seen several games he's replaced in and helped quickly one other example being bella's last newbie http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=22857).

The biggest effect is MoI alive lead the first two scum lynches (one was done pretty much primarily on his investigation result) and after the first two scum were dead that quick in a game with that many investigative prs the game was somewhat broken. Without the error the chances of the game getting semibroken like that would have been a lot less likely (there really wasn't any need for scum hunting when day 2 started since there was a guilty gs report and PoE guaranteed at worst three clears in 5p lylo).

3rd Kanye

. Yos probably phrased the effect of it best:

Yeah, the one-in-a-billion re-direction on night 1 broke the game. I replaced into a slot that was about to be lynched, saved it, set up multiple mislynches, had the game well in hand, and even figured out who the cop was and told my scumbuddy to kill him night 1, and then lost the game to one single night 1 town power role action that killed one of my scumbuddies, got a guilty on a second one, saved the life of the cop, and confiremd kanye as town, at all once. Next time someone asked what "swingy" means in terms of a mafia game, I'm going to link to this one.

Best Manipulator, Best Moment (since her good fake claim is what really helped her), rising star all fit fine. I believe rising star includes most improved and doesn't have any year limit.

MattP

for Most Cunning Manipulator -- just finished this game with him. After Night 1, there were 4 confirmed townies. They lynched one scum D2, N2 I got investigated, giving them an easy lynch on me D3. With 10 players remaining, and 4 confirmed town, town thought they had a sure-win. MattP's play was amazing, ending in a scum win.

second

this. Another game he played well as when he was scum was Barkley, Shut Up and Jam Mafia where his only scum partner got day killed day 1 and then he went on to win the game.

There was actually two mislynches. Setup wise though scum lost control of the mechanics near the start.

second Planet Mafiascum

. Very fun game to read and see war and fascism and all kinds of other random things happening between players.

Second Magua for Arkham Horror

One of the longer mish mash games (I think it was 60 pages), a game that had to keep track of a lot of different actions as 8 people played, and just flowed smoothly. The game itself was fun to play as shown by two more got created (one during it, while the second not long after it).
