My two favorite claims to fame to point out are (1) that I was the first person to sign up for that first game, and (2) that this site wouldn't have ever existed without me because I got MP to start playing mafia on LP.

My favorite claim to fame is having a gambit named after me on the SpoilerTV forums mafia section. That was a decade ago, I think.

Son of a BITCH Epignosis got a Lifetime Achievement Award before me?

This is why I don't vote for these things! RIGGED!

#218

Awww, guys, I'm very honored to receive one of the first lifetime achievement awards, despite the fact that '17 was my least active mafia year in a while. This community means the world to me even now more than ever, and I appreciate the votes of support. Thanks to sprityo for the words of kindness as well. You all are awesome.

Another incredible year of mafia and Socky awards. Thanks to the entire Socky team for this shindig as well as to all of the hosts and players that make this community so great year after year. Looking forward to seeing what the rest of 2018 has to bring.

Thanks. It’s pretty obvious that I had way too much fun with this.

Also, I’m pleased to report that neither of my daughters threw up during this year’s ceremony.

That's the canonical pronunciation.
But whyyyy

"ei" almost never makes that sound in like any language, it should be like "eyy"
Because I was 12 when I made the name up.
Two vowels together = first one's long, second one's silent.
Then Kylemii is like Kyle my.

this is a new one

#224

And congrats to all the winners, of course! Definitely well-deserved. Props to all the nominees that didn't win their prospective awards either; a lot of these categories had too many worthy contenders for just one winner.

Everybody knows it's not about the best mafia play but about the mafia play that panders to what the academy likes.

Even though I replaced in pretty late, it was an epic endgame to be a part of, especially due to the enormous effort put forth by so many townies before me. Truly an incredible game.

aw thanks MP

it warmed my heart so much to see phenon get the best job award, being my first setup hosted here and my second setup ever. not to mention it was 2 years in the making and overall im just super glad how it turned out and that all the effort paid off

#243

Congratulation to all the winners, apart from Best Host, unless that was a weird way of pronouncing and spelling Scotty.
