Nominating @Yahboyboter for best Replacement player in "Turboer Semi-invitational J10AT - Thotful Times". Yahboy was put into the game after a force subout on d3 of a game in which town is on the backfoot in f5. Only 8 minutes into the day and 2 posts later he has towncored previous ML candidates with laser sharp precision and pushed the entire remaining wolfteam against a wall. Game ended 4 hours later in a crushing town victory.
I will let his ISO speak for itself:

Fourth. That lobby was very rough and it brought out the worst in all of us. I was at the brink of retirement but luckily ya boy came in and managed to save the day yet again.
@Yahboyboter can you write an article for the MU academy? Its really important you step in to the mentorship role you deserve after this star performance

I doubt the students of the MU academy can handle it, are you sure?

Bellossom, Bubbles, and @Hally. doing a little flower dance. travel agent who doesn't work on commission. knows she's pretty but loves being reminded. tries to maintain a vegetable garden but isn't very good at it.
I'm going to apologize for this one in advance but I hope you'll all humor me for a little while. This is a champs level game after all and I can't help but try and post in a way to properly honor the occasion. Who knows when I'll be back in this situation again.
I don't think it's a secret for most of you that my track record in reading Hally has been rather … well … awful thus far in our games. I did have one specific game where I recognized Hally was a villager and confidently (and happily!) let the world know. They flipped wolf. After our Syndicate game together and then Anni (both of which saw me find Hally's eod wolfy and press there) I wanted to make a concentrated effort to finally read that slot correctly.
I spent some time today combing through recent-ish games this year of Hally's. The wolf game on the Org website, the Vig game over on the Syndicate one, and all sorts of mashes/smaller games through MU as well. Rocks fall, Anni, Homestuck, CoV, etc. You get the picture. All in all there were 16 different games I pulled isos from. I then went and ran through the isos extracting all the day one posts from the first half of the day, labeled them as W or V, and ran them through a bit of a homemade database that would do a few different things for me. One of the things was to make a word cloud which would count the number of times each word was used in these isos and make the word larger the more frequently it was used. For example:
Anyways, I separated the wolf isos from the villa isos and then removed things like articles (a, the, in, an, etc) as well as player names as those aren't really super relevant to our investigation and cross referenced them to see if anything word usage stood out as alignment indicative in the top 10 most common words. While there were small word choices favored it didn't seem super significant. What WAS significant were two other things:
One: While specific word choices weren't very telling I did notice a definitely trend of elegance in the wolf isos. The words may change but the idea remained the same. In wolf ISOs Hally had a habit of using larger, more elegant words whereas in the villa ISOs Hally just talked more casually. I'll call these Posts Exceedingly Elegant as we continue.
Two: Villager isos were much more full of observational posts rather than inquisitive ones. The wolf iso was full of open ended questions requesting elaboration. Not just directly to a specific player but also towards the thread at large asking if it saw what Hally was seeing. Meanwhile the villager iso was full of more pointed statement. It was telling the thread what Hally was seeing and making sure everyone understood. The village iso had a higher frequency – by a significant margin – of Posts Of Observation.
Again, I really want to get this right so I didn't stop there. Science isn't science until you write it down after all. I went ahead and charted the percentage of posts as a villager and as a wolf for both posts containing an elegant word and posts making observations. It's a bit crude but here's the quick jot down I made to visualize it:
So I wanted to see how this one was shaping up. Remember, these were all taken from the first half of day one isos which we've made it past here. I went ahead and ran through Hally's iso from this game, plotted the elegance and observational percentages on the chart, and ran the following equation to try and determine the exact percentage chance Hally has at being a wolf:
(Posts Exceedingly Elegant as a wolf)(Posts Exceedingly Elegant here) + (Posts of Observation as a villager)(Posts of Observation here) = the mathematical chance of Hally being a villager here (do 1-this for wolf obv).
Which looks something like this:
(Posts Exceedingly Elegant as a wolf)(Posts Exceedingly Elegant here) + (Posts of Observation as a villager)(Posts of Observation here)

The reality is that when you've soft defended half the wolf team, and tried to kill who I perceive as villagers, it's impossible for me to ever take that slot out of the PoE, or even trust them. I feel like they tried to open the PoE by bringing C4 back into the spotlight.
hey put respect on my name
i also hard defended the other half of the wolfteam
Pretty sure Katze is just an innocent memer gamer girl who likes to joke around and play seriously as well and genuinely gets upset when her jokes are taken seriously and her seriousness is taken as jokes
And if she’s maf then she’s just a borderline sociopath memer girl whose jokes are just lies and her seriousness are just lies and everything about her is a lie and if she flips maf this game and I see her say anything remotely scummy in a future game I’m just gonna death tunnel her to the ends of the earth regardless of how genuine her posts may feel
One of the newer additions to forum mafia, you are known for your passionate reads, particularly when it comes to your townreads. As a result, you have the following role(s):
Townread Her or Die - Starting day 2, you have the power to write “X (playernamehere) IS OBVIOUS TOWN” - this must be in size 7 bolded and underlined font to count. The player must have their MU gender as a girl. If this person is actually town, you will die and she will be confirmed as Innocent Child. If they’re mafia, nothing will happen. You can only use this power once.
-If you claim this ability in any way before day 2, you will not be able to use it.
You win when all threats to Town have been eliminated.

I'll second this one, he snowed the $%#! out of me
There's nothing that says a fake can't surpass the real thing.
70 Alternative Accounts: You have... way to many accounts. Sadbi, Workbi, Madbi, Sleepbi... probably a dozen more, honestly. Somehow, you have snuck one into this game, in the form of a second role! All investigative actions on you will return as your second rolecard. You will also be able to use all of the abilities on your second rolecard each night. You also start the game with a single bulletproof vest.
Disclaimer: You can only win and leave the game with your 'Sabi' win condition.
Simping for Brad: Simp. If you guess the player with the 'BlueKang' flavor during the day, or ever target them at night, you will be able to use 'The puzzle of friendship' four times per cycle, instead of three. You may only guess for 'BlueKang' once per day, and you may guess players who are dead.
Not Actually An EMer: You're sick and tired of being called an EMer. Just because you hang out with them doesn't mean you are one! You must enact revenge... Each night, you may use one of the following abilities:
Target a player. If they are executed tomorrow, or die the following night, you will gain one . This ability is immune to being roleblocked or redirected.
Target a player. At the start of the next day, it will be announced that there is a bounty on that player, and a player that votes them at EoD will get a reward if your target is executed. If your target is executed, and you are voting them, you will gain one .
You win and leave the game when you have gained two s.

Nominating Master Radishes for Best Flavor Writer for MU 2069: A Semi-Anonymous Space Opera
Radishes wrote a story about the players in the game engaging in a hunt in outer space to find out which of them were the AI traitors (mafia). It was really funny -- I almost never read flavor but the flavor was a highlight of the game for me, linking the thread where one can ISO him to read it:
The fact I am in harmony with YOLO the most out of everyone here leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Fate is a cruel mistress.

i think i have seen yolo villa once also

a lot of $%#!posting and really weird play in situations to clear himself by playing against the ideal play of lynches

Nominate Jan (Conner McKnight) for best mechanical play as Lost Wolf Lover/Vig in the Anonymous mash.
really difficult role to play and he had a mostly AFK partner AND he got vanillaized by unwitting wolf team.
- Jan claimed mechanical clear on his partner
- claimed double life on last day which persuaded his doofus wolf team not to kill his “greenchecked” partner for the win.

Power Rangers Mash Role PM
Hello , you are Damon Henderson.
Portrayed By: Reggie Rolle Ranger Powers: Lost Galaxy Green
You are a member of the Protectors of the Grid, and you have the following abilities:
Account Swap
N1 Choose Two other players. If both players are the same alignment, they will be forced to swap accounts and roles (the swap will be announced). If these two players are different alignments, you will de-morph.
Even without the parity cop aspect, there are some interesting implications of swapping two accounts. It's essentially an unstoppable bus driver role but with the hilarity of people moving accounts.
And the parity cop aspect and risk of death makes it a high risk high reward role.
If i would have changed anything, probably it would just be to make it at least 2-shot because man this looks fun to play!

Each night phase you may choose another player. You will de-morph that player.
If that player is a Protector of the Grid, they will have their flip suppressed other than they were town. They will join you in a private chat to talk with you for the rest of the game. Upon your de-morph all recruited players may join DVC.

The Energy JOAT (get points for staying alive and voting top wagon) was also brilliant because it rewards good play. UD used to invent WIM roles and ask for people to volunteer to be put in a rand for them and I think that’s a good idea.
Also we should give Aquilla the award so maybe he’ll come back.
They have been hard pushing forum mafia to their fellow chat mafia people in mafia.gg and 5up. They have hosted forum games to get them accustomed. Got them into turbos as well. They are offering advice and what not to help transition people from chat to forum. They have more community events in the subforum to help get people into forum.
putting this as 1 nom for the category if they win they will both get it
lemme know if i should change that @ anyone

He was incredible with pretty much everythjng host related in Power Rangers mash (setting up anonymous accounts and arranging that, running ITAs, sending roles, resolving night actions, making sure everything runs smoothly) - just incredibly on top of everything with little error, I felt barely needed. He's also hosted multiple games in the past very well. Sadly he is retiring but deserves a reward!
making the executive decision using powers i don't have to move best hydra to individual awards
although it's not individual, it's p close with 2 players and makes a lot more sense than being a team award imo because it is highlighting a specific slot.
also kind of confusing me because the description says link the certain game so that sounds like it means best hydra performance in particular game instead of best hydra so what happened to best hydra?? i suppose there's some overlap because hydras usually only play 1 game per year but what if they dont?! so like if someone is nomming someone for best hydra then yeah it's usually gonna be because of a particular gamr that's going in the nom anyways. but if the hydra has played multiple games a year it doesn't make sense to me that the nom should focus around a singular game. so gonna edit the description/requirements for that category

This is a tough one because there are so many great people but I nominate @Hallia for Most Enjoyable Player
I don’t think she has won this award before which seems insane?
anyway no one brightens a thread like Hallia, she’s a joy to interact with and is never toxic or mean-spirited. She’s quite hilarious and witty and definitely a gift to the community.

You're nothing but a piece. Your absence wouldn't hinder my progress in this game in the slightest. Please just go back to the piece tray and gather dust or something. It's painful to even remember useless pieces.
I want to nominate the Power Rangers Mash Wolf Team for Best Scum/3p Performance - Group (Mash). Great use of their abilities, great coordination with just the right amount of distancing between different partners, excellent manipulation of ITAs, clutch day vig kills, and taking full advantage of the cred from the d1 bus. Just overall an excellent performance that made it near impossible to ever catch the entire team, even if we had made the right chops on d3 and d4.

I mean I +1'd it on the fly because you pinged me and it's the village I'll be voting for given the option, but I feel silly strongarming a nomination that has gained this little traction. Let someone else second it or let it die probably.

The amount of work he put in inside the wolf chat of Persona Mash was insane. He had a good understanding of all the roles, and helped us others with the inputs and advice. When there are so many massive and unfamiliar roles to keep track on, Adam's skills are invaluable.
