:roll:

I'm not the first person here to nominate Town / Scum group they were a member of for a GROUP scummy. Not a peep when that happened. But look ... the Scummie thread troll posse appears.

This is a far cry from nomming myself for Paragon of Mafia Hunters, for example.

Pretty much Geriatric game restricted at this point ... unless there are players I REALLY want to play with.

Yeah, maybe it's preferable to have someone else nominate, but realistically for a town nomination that leaves roughly 4 people who might potentially nominate the town: the scum members and the moderator. Maybe someone else comes in and sees it, but it's unlikely. A self-nomination in this case is fine.

The problem with self-nominations is that it sounds entitled, lacks humility, etc. When a self-nom for a team goes up those problems are defanged because it takes more humility to say, "I had a great team."

I'm not saying the self-nom was bad. I just thought it was a self-nom and wanted to make sure. Others can say what they want.

Which is all BS.

Self noms are fine in all circumstances. If you really don't deserve it, you just look like a right twat.

Not really, because some people will second
anything
, and it vastly increases the reading load on the judges.

Also, if self-noms are okay for teams, then the team can nom and second itself in Every Single Game. That's stupid.

Nomimate Lost Butterfly (Faraday+Mina) for Best Flavor for Scummer Fantasy Camp U-Pick thingthatjustended

The flavor was funny, it was clever, and unlike most flavor, you actually wanted to read all of it.
Honorable mention to Gammagooey.

2nd Reck for Prof Mafia
, for Mashups and Mafia. I feel it provides good mafia discussion, probably as good as anything on the wiki/MD and there's always something new being discussed on the show each week.

You deserve it if people don't shun and mock you for selfnomming.

Maybe the rule should be that nominations don't show up until they've at least been seconded.
