OOC: Seriously, what is up with all these prize proposals? Can't we just pile them up into one thing so we won't have a new person coming along every two days? I'm not saying your idea is bad, it's just that we need to find a way to merge them all into one.

OOC: It's partially due to the fact that one of the main arguments against the recently passed economics prize resolution was that it will lead to a flood of other prize proposals.

Not surprised. Money says where going to see a whole assload of these "take Economics Prize and replace Economics with XXX" proposals in the next week or two.

As such, I'd just like to say this right now. The Merry Pranksters of Dancing Bananland, UN Delegate of Uroca, is officially opposed to ALL prize proposals on a matter of principle. This will appear in my signature shortly.

If you're going to write a prize proposal, at least have the decency to actually write one and not simply copy the one that's passed and replace "economics" with "peace" or "physics" or "masturbation." You're plagiarising.

This is a non-sense for a Peace Prize.
