I think it’s important that every nom has to go through two people so I’m only seconding noms that make me go “oh why didn’t I think of that”

@May et al thank you for making all these nominations, it completely slipped my mind

I am going to make the suggestion that FAM winning team is made into its own award (in the style of MU) so that best group performance for a special game isn’t just defaulted to whichever team won FAM

Yes I am shamelessly making this nomination because it applies to me

Yes I didn’t give a shit last year when I was in FAM’s winning team

or maybe last year there wasn’t a good nom for best town group performance in a special game so it wasn’t an issue but there is this year

Yeah I don’t like FAM town being so easy to win special game… I mean it’s got so many people so people incentivised to self-vote. It’s weird. It’s a different hting, it’s a different category

I also think it’s less of a lie to just have a FAM winner award than coping about group performance cuz realistically in a game of that size it kinda undermines the group performance aspect when we know damn well there were several people on the winning team who contributed close to nothing by nature of the game, but in normal sized games it is much more apparent if the entire team contributed something which had some kind of meaningful impact owing to the nomination of the team (or so you’d hope)

in other words there will probably always be a bigger fraction of the FAM winning team players who did not play well or meaningfully contribute than an average sized nomination for the award but the former is viewed more favorably just because the game had a higher flat number of people who played well and meaningfully contributed even if the percentage is worse (and yes this obviously rigs the voting too)
