Who was the most influential Atlasian and what was the most important event of the year?  Any nominees

I would like to nominate the Acceptance of Science Bill as the moment of the year.  It was easily the most debate in the senate this year.

The Proportional Representation Bill and End to Districts Amendment together had much more debate than the Acceptance of Science Bill.

Gabu for Atlasian of the Year. SoFA is a hard, thankless job

The debate was certainly not as exciting.  It has the second most replies after the "Educational Clarification Bill".  It really cemented it place after Bono posted the pictures of Southerner's celebrating

He's used the same montage several times before, first after the Supreme Court struck down a law providing aid to young and unwed pregnant women.

I never saw it before.  Anyway, that debate was classic and really great for the country.  I will miss Naso creating a cover for this year's winner.  I think people are took quick to say Colin is Atlasian of the year, there were plenty of people who did a lot for this game this year.  I personally would like to nominate any of the people who served in the senate during my tenure, those were great senates and really provided a boost in participation.

President Wixted has certainly been a competent president, but I don't think he defines this era.  And I also don't feel that one of the leaders of the Senate fits the award, regardless of ascribed "accomplishments."  I therefore nominate the "Atlasian citizen" for his wise rejection of U.S. recognition, among other reasons.

The Colin/Jas administration, not only for its handling of Atlasia efficiently and actively, but for the debate they've spurred with their legislative agenda. The PR Bill and End of Districts Amendment were perhaps the biggest debate in over a year.

While I am honored by all the people looking to put me forward I would have to say that I would surely be a complete bumbling idiot in this office without Jas, who has helped me immensly in my position and for the betterment of Atlasia.

Almost as lame as when TIME did the same thing last year.

I'd dsay this is lamer - because at least TIME's crappy idea was original.  Tongue

I also nominated Gabu - he did a very good job as SoFA.
Also, I'd like to nominate Colin/Jas - although I've had my differences with them, I think that they have both served the country well and are leading Atlasia in the right direction.

This morning, I found these on my desk.  When I asked my secretary what they were, she told me that "some guy with the reddest hair I've ever seen" had dropped them off for me:

We could include the motion for removal and then forcing out of Porce as PPT, this ties into the Naso VP incident as well.

Far enough, however, I still nominate the Naso Controversey which would emcompass the failed motion to remove the PPT.  And possibly my expulsion motion

I remember there was a petition to impeach Ebowed once because he voted against Naso for Vice President. Or it was something very similar to that. I cannot believe I actually signed that, what the hell was I thinking.
