So, as everyone gathers and the Awards Hall fills up, I would like to announce the Assembly Awards, given to those players which have been recognised for their performance within the legislature of the South Pacifc. Each winner will earn one of these sparkling beauties, handcrafted by our resident artist, @Imkihca:

An Assembly Coco!

So, without further ado, we'll announce the first category, which is the award for Best Debater.  Nominations were unanimous for this player, so it is my pleasure to declare @Belschaft the winner!

Our second award tonight is for the Best Legal Writer and again the nominations were unanimous.  The winner is @sandaoguo!

Next up, the award for Best New Law and yet again the nominations for this were unanimous.  The winner is The Political Parties Act first proposed by @Tsunamy!

The final Assembly award goes to the player with the most nominations for Best Overall Legislator.  There were two players nominated, @Roavin and @Tsunamy...

And, for the first time this evening we have a tie!  The winners are @Roavin and @Tsunamy!

We'll declare the winner of the Chair's Award along with all the other special 'pick' awards at the end of the evening.  Next up will be the RMB Awards, but before then there'll be a (lengthy) recess, so feel free to congratulate the winners so far and discuss the awards!
