Well TECHNICALLY they can, it's just not recorded. What would happen if someone got tenthed? And yes, this happens.

Umm... the judges take into account that users clearly think this person should get a scummie?


That's what the nth is for, and etc. on the OP.

In post 1345, Mr. Flay wrote:I thought seconding was a requirement, and anything after that was superfluous. I don't like the idea of any random single nomination cluttering up the judges' workload.

Anything nominated goes through atm. I mean, there is a certain amount of 'clutter', true, (I count over 15 nominations that have just one 'nom') and it certainly adds to the workload. There's no rule about it though (Certainly in previous years I've seen people with only one person nominating them being judged)

Withdraw GreyICE nomination for Manipulator
No reason for my solo nom to stand. I agree with Flay though... requiring something be seconded is pretty standard for a nominations process. It's also an easy way to weed out self-nominations that aren't deserving without having to ban them altogether.

You
can
. But you shouldn't. Even venerable people like Vi have caught a lot of flak for self-nominating.

Scummies is an alt of the scummies judges or some such.

@Tragedy, ani, DonJosh, inspi, kiwi: I'm not going to refuse a scummie if it's given to me, but if I were you, I'd withdraw those nominations/seconds/thirds of me and my game.

Firstly, the game has had many issues throughout. Some you've seen, some you haven't, but rest assured this game is a long way from perfect. Second, scummies require a game to be finished within the year. There is a very real chance Planet MafiaScum will not be over in time anyway. Thirdly, as I explained in the thread, my modding is likely to go downhill over the next few weeks. So ultimately, if I were to win one or both of these scummies, I would feel like I didn't really deserve them. I won't stop you nominating me, but that's my view.

Provided nothing goes very badly wrong, I fully intend to run Planet MafiaScum again, with overhauled mechanics and more structure behind the scenes. Perhaps that will be worthy of a scummie. We'll see.

It's worthy of a scummy no matter what's going on IRL.

It's the single biggest Mish Mash thread that took signups. It's one of the best run ones as well. You're on your third co-mod now, you you've been able to handle it all with pride.

Well, as I said, nominate me if you want. I just may not agree with the decision.

@OP: I am not DonJosh

Izak, with all due respect, absolutely no way nu-uh nope.

Firstly, the game has had many issues throughout. Some you've seen, some you haven't, but rest assured this game is a long way from perfect.

Agreed. The game, as with many Wide Open Sandboxes, is inherently buggy. That doesn't decrease the modding ability or capability that you display and have displayed. Also, the scummies rules don't stipulate that the game must be "perfect". They simply award appreciation to deserving mods and games, of which you and P:MS are.

Second, scummies require a game to be finished within the year. There is a very real chance Planet MafiaScum will not be over in time anyway.

Hmm. That may however be a small problem, but there may well be a way around that. Could you or someone please link the rules thread?

Thirdly, as I explained in the thread, my modding is likely to go downhill over the next few weeks. So ultimately, if I were to win one or both of these scummies, I would feel like I didn't really deserve them. I won't stop you nominating me, but that's my view.

I think a couple of weeks of not-
as
-great modding is perfectly justified. As Ani pointed out, you are, single handedly, the biggest game on MM. The ISO list reads like a Who's Who of Mishmash.

Provided nothing goes very badly wrong, I fully intend to run Planet MafiaScum again, with overhauled mechanics and more structure behind the scenes. Perhaps that will be worthy of a scummie. We'll see.


Nothing stopping you from getting two awards.

Oh, and with all that said,
