The Queen's Foundation Awards (otherwise known as the Queen's Medals), are a set of awards granted to people each year in acknowledgement of their accomplishments across a variety of different fields, are once more upon us. This year we intend to award prizes for accomplishments in the fields of Chemistry, Physics, Physiology and Medicine, Literature or Journalism, Peace, Economics, Engineering, Archaeology and Anthropology and Mathematics. Nominations will be open until the 26th of October with the winners being announced on the 1st of November at a reception hosted by Queen's College of the University of Artaxia.
We look forward to another celebration of humankind's accomplishments.
Charlotte Youngson
Chair of the Queen's Foundation
OOC ExplanationOk this is essentially modelled on the Nobel Prizes. You can nominate any of your own characters, someone else's character, or even an international organisation if you can justify it in any of the fields. There are some rules regarding nominations explained below. All I ask is that people be reasonable, this is intended as a fun RP event not a competition.
The Rules1) The reason for the nomination (I.e. what the nominee has done) must have happened between the 27th of October 2019 and the 26th of October 2020 - i.e. the period between last years nominations closing and this years nominations closing.
2) The reason must be a completed RP event - for example if the SSC Honeybadger was nominated then it must have achieved the speed record and not still be being constructed. This also means it must be something on the forum. The nomination period is deliberately long to give everyone the opportunity to complete RP's that may be relevant.
3) The reason must be feasible (within the RP rules) - self explanatory.
4) The Queen's Foundation reserves the right to reject a nomination should it deem it to be inappropriate.
The Nomination FormPlease fill out the following form to nominate for a prize
Name of Nominee: (Link to character profile if they have one desired but not essential, do include titles)
Field Nominated in: Chemistry/Physics/Physiology and Medicine/Literature and Journalism/Peace/Economics/Engineering/Archaeology and Anthropology/Mathematics - Delete as Appropriate
