So there's no point in nominating people who have already been nominated, right? That's just to get their name up on the poll?

I really hope I don't have to pick between MeMe and Jeep for behind the scenes. I'd feel like such a jerk either way.

Best SK


Mole, for at least two examples. Right, mole? He won Quantum in a well-played endgame as an SK, and I feel like he won another as an SK at some point.

Best Role

CB's Crotchety Old Man in Texas Mafia. New and amusing.

And:

Funniest
.

I would nominate all of mikehart, Macros, Totem, and genku, as pretty much every single of one of any of their posts makes me laugh....I think I'll go with
Macros
.

Oh yeah, I second that. Except I don't need to. But it was well done nonetheless.

I meant to do this a while ago, but I'll also nominate CB's pirate role from Texas mafia (say, the version
with
the parrot). The role is great, though admittedly this is largely due to context.

You forgot macros in the above list.

Well, though present for all the games, I (and presumably any of the others in macros' above list) certainly wasn't in them all. Things like "Best Role" are heavily context-dependent, so I feel like it would be hard to eliminate bias toward the roles in games you were in. So I'm not sure the best way to proceed.

I agree for the most part, that there would be no conscious bias on the part of the judges, but you can't help having memories (say, the best role claim category):

"Oh yeah, I remember when Soandso claimed BLAH...that was great. It made the game much more interesting and I had a better time because of it."

compared to

"Upon reading this game, I see that Soandso claimed BLAH. That was probably humorous for those involved."

Maybe people shouldn't judge in categories they're either nominated in
or
made nominations for.

Wait, did private threads get implemented and I just never heard about it, or is something for the future?

Heh, I think I was there for that. Either that or I too read through it on the archives.

*resists the urge*
