The Assassins' Guild: Mayweek 2004 Game Awards
In recognition of some of the more memorable moments of the game, the Umpire would like to announce the awarding of the following, um, awards:
- The Lemming Award for the first to die:
- Simeon Bird, five minutes after the start of the game.
- The Holzhauer Award for psychopathy:
- Jenny Chase, for a steady stream of kills right throughout the game.
- Also dangerous to know:
- Chris Field, who managed to pull off 14 on the last day.
- The Dr Kimble Award for surviving the longest time on the wanted list:
- Christopher Eggleston, not usually a mayweek award, but he managed to survive the entire game with a bounty on his head.
- The Kenny Award for dying far too many times:
- Lucie Santiz, who died 8 times, and was mutilated twice, and
- Philip Bridge, who also died 8 times.
- The Three Hours Early Award for paranoia:
- Paul Fox, for hiding in his kitchen for quite an unreasonable length of time.
- The Laurel And Hardy Award for most amusing double-act:
- Ross Edmondson and Catherine Hall if only for the pseudonyms.
- Also well-matched:
- Jenny Chase and Björn Holzhauer
- Adam Biltcliffe and Carrie Oliver
- The Leek and Safe Award for most interesting weaponry:
- Christopher Eggleston licensed an Airzooka, but doesn't seem to have used it.
- The Catherine Zentile Award for least innocent innocent:
- J Doe, who was seen many times with a mobile phone.
- Also somewhat dodgy:
- Ric Brackenbury
- The Brutus Award for best betrayal:
- Chris Field for betraying most of the people "on his side" on the last day.
- Similarly untrustworthy:
- Jenny Chase for killing Björn, though he claims he didn't see it coming.
- Yellow Streak Award for running away:
- Jenny and Björn for running away from Jonathon Woollgar.
- The Stephen Byers Award for the
biggest mess-up:
- The Umpire for various things, most notably introducing the penalty for running away into OOB at an inconvenient time. He's sorry, honest.
