A couple of pointers.

First, make sure that your DNS records for scrapcombatships.com and
magnumopusproductions.com are both A records pointing to the same IP
address. If you use a CNAME, then some mail implementations will change
recipient email addresses to the canonical name... this can cause confusion.

Next, your sympa_aliases file looks correct. Have you rebuilt it (using
newaliases ) so that the corresponding sympa_aliases.db exists and is the
same age or newer?

Now check that your sendmail.cf actually refers to this file. Look for the
'O AliasFile=/etc/aliases' -- this tells sendmail.to use /etc/aliases, but
do you have anything telling it to also use /etc/mail/sympa_aliases ? You
need to have in your sendmail.cf instead:

O AliasFile=/etc/aliases,/etc/mail/sympa_aliases

Or, if you are using m5, then in your sendmail.mc

define('ALIAS_FILE', '/etc/aliases,/etc/mail/Sympa_aliases')dnl

Take a look at the documentation in here:
http://www.sympa.org/manual/mail-aliases and this should help you.
