Re: 2017 Socky Awards
Hello everyone and welcome to the presentation of the 2017 Socky Awards.
The awards team has been piecing this thing together over the last few months and we're all very pleased to be able to finally bring it to you. There's no need for extra drama or fanfare, so we're just going to get to it. The first award presentation will be arriving shortly.

Re: 2017 Socky Awards
The Lifetime Achievement Award
*Official award name pending review
This is a special new award we are introducing this year. This can be viewed as a sort of "Hall of Fame" induction, not to be confused with the Hall of Fame forum on this site where we keep statistical track of each game and player. This award does not refer only to 2017 game play. It refers to the entire body of work (referring specifically to their Mafia play and/or hosting) for a player's time on this website from the day they registered.
Not everyone is eligible to be inducted this year. This will function similarly to an athletic Hall of Fame, like those seen for professional sports. This year, only players who joined The Syndicate in the year 2013 or earlier are considered to be eligible for a Lifetime Achievement Award. If this award continues for next year's awards, the year of eligibility would move forward to 2014.
This link directs to the member list, ordered by date of registration. Eligible players continue into page 6.
You may vote for three players here, and three players will be inducted. In the event of ties, the Socky Awards team will convene to come to a solution.
Everyone is eligible to vote for this award, including those who are not eligible to receive it.

2017 Socky Awards
2017 SOCKY AWARDS
As the year approaches its end, it's about that time to determine who will be adding those delicious, wonderful Socky Awards to their trophy cases. It has been an eventful, active, at times challenging, and always fun year of Mafia on The Syndicate, and we're excited to celebrate it with another awards ceremony.
A team of Official Socky Awards Overseers, Administrators, and Thing Doers (OSAOATD) has been working together over the last month or so to decide what awards will be up for grabs this year. I have compiled them all and will share them with you in the following post. In this post, I will provide you with rules for placing your votes. Please read each award carefully, because there might be minor exceptions.
Voting Guidelines
~ You are eligible to vote in these Socky awards if you played in or hosted at least one of the eligible games listed in the spoiler at the bottom of this post.
~ You may place TWO votes in each category, though it is not required. There will still be only one winner named (barring unique tie scenarios); this allows for more people to be recognized.
~ All votes must be sent privately to this Sockys2017 account to count. Link
~ You are not required to vote in every category.
~ Voting will be open for about the next three weeks, with a hard deadline presently set for Friday the 19th of January at 11:59pm eastern US time.
~ You are allowed to discuss your votes in this thread or campaign if you so desire. Remember though that some element of surprise makes it more fun.
~ You are permitted to vote for yourself if you so desire.
If you have any questions, direct them to JaggedJimmyJay, juliets, G-Man, sprityo, DrWilgy, Long Con, or Dragon D. Luffy.
