Proto-psuedo-contest (for use with the PRS):

1. The name of this contract is "The Agoran Proposal Awards". The
contestmaster for this contract is BobTHJ.

2. Any player may become party to this contract by announcement. Any
person may cease to be party to this contract by announcement. This
contract may be amended by any party without three objections

3. Once each week, each player may submit a single ballot by
announcement containing their votes for the eligible proposal which in
their opinion is the best fit for each of the following categories
(the eligible proposals for any given week are the proposals whose
voting period ended during the previous week):

 a. Dry - appropriate for proposals that display paticular aridity
and/or blandness. Proposals nominated for this category should be good
bedtime reading.

 b. Sticky - appropriate for proposals that commingle two distinct and
separate game concepts together into one proposal.

 c. Useless - appropriate for proposals that display a high level of
floccinaucinihilipilificatiousness. Proposals nominated for this
category should have little or no true function.

 d. Rejuvinating - appropriate for proposals that add life and
excitement to the game. Proposals nominated for this category should
cultivate interesting concepts in the same way as a gardener who tends
his field.

 e. Silly - appropriate for proposals that dispaly jejune behavior.
Proposals nominated in this category typically will not be taken
seriously.

 f. Befuddling - appropriate for proposals which could be submitted by
a womble. Proposals nominated in this category will be excessively
complex, far beyond what is required to convey the concept.

4. At the end of each week each eligible proposal that received more
votes for a specific category than any other proposal shall be the
winner of that category for that week. If two or more proposals are
tied for the most nominations in a category, or if there were no
nominations for a category then there shall be no winner of that
category for that week.

5. At the end of each week, the Contestmaster shall attempt to award 5
points to each winning proposal and distribute them to the author of
said proposal. Then the contestmaster shall attempt to award each
party who submitted a valid ballot during that week a 1 point
participation bonus.

6. The contestmaster shall keep a record of all winning proposals and
their authors, and shall publish weekly a list of past winners and
current eligible proposals.
