The hammer incident is pretty unique. One-line posting applies to A LOT of people and isn't something I would associate more with him than with other one-line posters.

Is this a multi-game occurrence? I feel like a title should be something someone is widely known for and is unique to them. But maybe I'm just a bitter old man.

It broke the game, turning it from a LyLo loss to a scum rout. And yes, notsci hammered on other occasions both in that game and others.

Everyone has hammered. I mean the specific "this is a hammer" joke.

This trend of shit play == title nom is saddening.

Like these?

When's the last time you saw someone get caught trying to quickhammer because of a ninja unvote? It probably hasn't happened since preview edits were introduced. It's unique, it's interesting.

It wasn't shit play (not like we haven't given titles for that before - hi zorotter!). It was INCREDIBLY unlucky play. Jake beat them to the hammer by 30 seconds.
They were coordinating it via daytalk.

Going to take this one to the other side: Nominate
Jake from State Farm
for
Eternal vigilance
(also acceptable:
Not on my watch!
)

As Flay said, Jake was able to unvote during a Mafia quickhammer
coordinated with daytalk
here -- a window of about a minute all told.

I massively prefer the Notscience title, simply because :theming:

The Crocodile Dundee joke with the failed quick hammer in the same game is just too good.

I think the Jake title is a stretch, way moreso than the notsci one.

I'm not opposed to it, but I feel like Title/Scummy is the better fit.
