[Phalla] Championship Nominations

Hey y'all, if you ain't heard it yet, our community has been invited to participate in a cross-forum game of mafia Phalla somewhat pompously titled the Mafia Championship! Read the invite here!
This would be the second time the Penny Arcade forums participated in this event, after our very own Infidel won during the inaugural season. You can read that game here!
The long and short of it is that we will need to select a representative from our community here to participate. In true Phalla fashion, we'll hold a vote to determine the winner.
Before we can vote, we'll need to hold nominations. The nomination period will be from April 23rd-26th. Voting will take place from April 27th-29th so that we can send our official choice to the organizers for May 1st.
Nominees should fit the following criteria
1. Currently an active member of the Phalla community
2. Willing to commit to being active during the Championship timeline (read the post, I'm not going to go over the timeline here).
3. Probably a fairly competent and/or well-known player but I'm not gonna hold a gun to your head about this one
RULES OF NOMINATION
1. No self-nominations
2. Limit of two nominations per player
3. All nominees must confirm that they are willing to act as the designate. We don't want to send someone who's inactive.
4. If we have fewer than 20 community members engaged in the nomination process, we'll decline the invitation.
Nominated but haven't confirmed availability:
1. Discrider
2. Obifett
3. Kime
4. TheRoadVirus
5. Oats
6. JPants
7. Egos
8. Auralynx
9. LostNinja
10. Gizzy
11. JusticeforPluto
12. I needed a gnome to post
Nominated but have declined:
1. Baidol
2. Wildcat
Nominated and confirmed availability:
1. Virgil_Leads_You
2. Sir Fabulous
3. Jdarksun
4. MrBlarney

From what I read through of that thread, seems like moving on is more about establishing a presence.
Confusion will be my epitaph
Aaaaand let's bring @jdarksun and @Oats
Top of my head, I really like @jdarksun and @JPants as my nominees
Team J.
I'm a big fan of those two's ability to dissect mechanics and engage with players.
I'm fine with being a nominee. I have more free time since quitting work and moving to IL.
I don't think I'd get very far though.
Hard to pretend to be a vote immune brontosaurus in games that I'm assuming are going to be a bit clinical.
I'm not really sure whether it's going to be another case of 'Everyone's asleep; time to post'
I've always appreciated @Egos and their contributions to the game.

I'm fine with being a nominee.
A magical box could be indispensable to the village.
...actually, how about @MrBlarney ?
Yeah it's a personal reason that is his story to tell if he chooses
(if you want to get in touch with him his twitter is https://twitter.com/king_guthrum )
As for the nominee, I will nominate @Baidol
I have a hard time hosting because phalla/hosting seems to be steeped in drama nigh constantly.
Or I'm a lightning rod for it.
Or something.
No drama in hosting in my experience. Other than not making abilities clear enough.

I appreciate the nomination, but I must decline as I do not have time at the moment.
I think "rusty" would represent this community perfectly.

I'm going on a short vacation tomorrow. Will be back Sunday, April 29.
As for the deadline for choosing a representative (or someone volunteering themselves), I am extending this by a couple of days to May 3.
When/if your representative is decided, that person should please either PM me on Mafia Universe or reach me on Discord: Thingyman#6075. During evenings I will quickly check messages and get them the information they need to prepare for the game.
I know that a lot of you don't follow the threads in this subforum but if you could spare a minute to nominate/vote that would be awesome.

I'd do it, though I'm not as active anymore (or as good)
I did take a look at their forums and
1. they have their own magic box! Well, a bot anyway for vote counts and such
2. holy shit one of the previous championship games had 5000 posts in a week
3. the format basically just means day 1/2 mafia kills can't win because why would they ever get voted as "best player"?
And offering absolutely no explanation other than *STOMP* *STOMP*
To be fair who could count as active anymore?
I can has cheezburger, yes?
And @38thDoe, you forgot @Burnage.
