mafia game of the year
tie, between...
M80: Fruit Ninja Mafia (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=15031.0) by Roadrunner7671
J Reggie stole town's heart (and their fruit)
with a neat inventor mechanic that allows for ~~extra deception~~, M80 was an overall strong, family friendly classic, featuring strong play on both sides. oh also yuma quit l0l
and
M86: Ghibli Mafia (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16147.0) by ashersky
They can't all be the best game ever.
a flawless scum victory, and a gritty one. like all strong scum games, this felt like town lost it for itself—but to suggest that would be to neglect how active the scums really were, and how well they used their various perceptions among the town. as well, the setup in play made an especially nuanced and layered array of claiming and whatnot.
mafia setup of the year
RMM27: (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=14208.0)Board Game Mafia (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=14208.0) by Archetype
the scenario I was hoping for could have resulted in enough town confusion to put you back in the game
an exquisite town multiball with an asston of moving parts that somehow wasn't entirely broken, as describes any good RMM. this setup created for tons of exciting fakeclaims n gotchas that match the turbulent landscape of the battle between mass market, ameritrash, and eurogames.
flavor of the year
M87: The Aperture Science Robot Humanization Initiative (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=16339.0) by mail-mi
I'm going to try to emulate GLaDOS with the PMs, so if they seem too cruel, please tell me.
Greetings, {subject alignment here}. The enrichment center is pleased to report to you that we have absolutely trounced all competitiors beyond submission, and have emerged the far-and-away victor in integrity of flavor. Please note that this has no bearing on testing; we just thought it might brighten up your otherwise dull and meaningless lives.
town player of the year
gkrieg13
Ya this doesn't look good for {scumteam, listed in reverse order that they will be lynched} here
if you call em out and then die N1 enough times, you get an award.
scum player of the year
Calamitas
I don't think lynching me is correct here.
earning a permanent slot at "null" in every readlist, Calamitas is accurately described as unreadable—though that doesn't tell the whole story; he is an adept manipulator and tasteful gambiteer.
newbie of the year
SpaceAnemone
This reminds me of an interesting life experience :-)
joining Calamitas at "null" is a new compatriot, SpaceAnemone has quickly found their place among our mafia puddle and reminds us that mafia is a fun game that humans play with each other that is, in many cases, massively mathematically deterministic.
most fun to play with
LaLight
I think I should still look town from this mislynch. After all, I was busy playing every game, reading every game, posting everywhere, knowing every country's cultural references and not sleeping, seemingly
he is pleasant, and industrious.
best performance in a single game
silverspawn, in M79: Sherlock Mafia (http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=14936.0)
What even is silverspawn?
he took advantage of all of his resources ravenously, and he had pretty much everyone in the game on a leash, like, the whole time, while totally diving into the flavor of the game as well.
mod of the year
faust
/m50 Yes. /m51 No. /m52 No. /m53 It would go through the bulletproof, but not the redirected jailkeeper. /m54 I can't answer that question. /m57 The serial killer would get endgamed, but only if you roleblocked yourself and rolestopped the SK. /m59 Ha, no.
as strong as his town game, his scum game, and his third party game are, he plays an immaculate mod.
congratulations to our winners!
