Something like "The herald CAN award, with 3 support, a player spendies/patent title/new ribbon. The herald SHOULD only do this for significant involvement in Thesis Drafting, Thesis Review, and/or Tournament Conductation."
To incentivize the production of tournaments (to conduct science LIVE), thesis submissions (to advance the science) and review (to improve feedback cycles). The 3 support is to prevent scamming it; presumably, there would be at least 2 but hopefully 3 people reviewing theses or involved in a tournament. I want a better acronym for it than ASERA (All I came up with was ARSE and that is not the right direction however humous), and not sure what the reward should be, but I prefer a Patent Title or a ribbon, as that sticks around a bit and lets new players know without searching that such players are available to do such things, and that such things are encouraged in the first place (degrees are encouraged right now via ribbon, but the other aspects of the degree process are not, similarly, a ribbon used to exist for conducting tourneys and no longer does) -- apathy (4ˢᵗ) Uncertified Bad Idea Generator
