Scummie Nominations - 2006

[Phoebus]

Seeing as the 2005 nomination thread served its purpose rather well, this is a new thread for the current year.

Games ending after January the 1st 2006 to ones ending on or before December the 31st 2006 are valid nominations for this thread.

Again, if there are too many nominations, next year's judges will have the option to purge them as they wish.

Should a new category be needed/added, it will be open for nominations as well.

The following categories are currently taking nominations:

• Best Role Claim - "The Johnny Cochrane Award"
  
• Funniest Role Claim - "George W Bush Award"
  
• Best Role (new or adaptation) - "Flying Pumpkin That Shoots Lazers Out Of Its Ass Award"
  
• Person most likely to die night 1 - "Kenny Award"
  
• Best Performance (either singular or team) - "Oscar"
  
  The Oscar for Best Performance - Pro Town
  The Oscar for Best Performance - Mafia
  
  
• Best Contribution to mafia discusion - "Professor Mafia award"
  
• The best mafia catcher - "Paragon of Mafia Hunters award"
  
• Best SK - "Hannibal Lector Award"
  
• Funniest player - "The Coffee on the Monitor award"
  
• Most Prolific player - "Addict award"
  
• Most Enjoyable Game Regular [free market/normal]
  
• Most Enjoyable Game Mini [theme/regular]

As usual, the nomination should be in the following format:

[Phoebus]

Is there anyway I can nominate dragyn_mage for "Worst Performance"?

No.

[Phoebus]

Currently I think those games can go into most enjoyable game.
If you nominate a game for those awards, submit a blurb, snippet or link as to why it was so enjoyable.
The judges may or may not have played in the nominated game and therefore, may or may not get why it's so enjoyable when they read.

Nominate: mikeburnfire for Professor Mafia Award

for his awesome Flash introduction to Mafia

[Phoebus]

smartypants, smartass. little difference it seems.
i'd take those pants off you and give you a good striping with a switch.

List updated.
Added Best/Most helpful IC player category as we kinda missed that this year.

It seems there is some confusion with regards to two awards.
Let me clarify them now.

Oscar for best performance as pro town is a one shot award. When you nominate someone for it, talk about the particular instance and game.

Paragon of Mafia hunters reflects consistency. If nominating someone for this award, give two or (preferably) three or more examples for their good play.

[Phoebus]

We'll have to be see about a special jury award.

[Phoebus]

Elaborate on the achievement. You might be making his getting an award difficult
I'm all for giving him an award just cuz he's fucking awesome!
Lifetime achievement like that distance pissing record? The only thing the Irish would win at the Olympics?

His prize could be a random hobo...

[Phoebus]

I'd like to re iterate that the Coffee on the Monitor Award might be better supported by multiple instances of "funny" than a one off incidence.

[Phoebus]

send me your address by PM, pj - I'll send you a box of cookies.

I'd lost track of things since october but you are an angel!

[Phoebus]

It'd be good to get more noms for most enjoyable theme and any for the kenny and most helpful IC player...

[Phoebus]

your loss

[Phoebus]

We're doing things a little differently this year.

If you're nominated for any award, please type up acceptance speeches yourselves.
You can be as wacky and weird as you like, in fact...the more w&w, the better, I say.

Please send in your speeches to me by PM or email (if that's still listed in my profile)
The Subject line should include the following details

Re: Scummie Acceptance - [Insert Award Name Here] - [Scumnick if emailing]
No need for scumnick if PM'ing. duh.

If you're up for multiple awards, you get multiple chances to write.

Send in the speeches and they will be incorporated into this year's ceremony.

You have till Feb 20 to send your speeches in.
if you don't send one in, someone else will probably accept the award on your behalf and you will never see it again or you will be made fun of. Trust random.org

If you know some nominees who are your friends but perhaps don't read this thread, poke them.

I will be poking any individuals which might have become nominees through judge discretion.

laterz.
