Some of you might remember the old thread from a while ago; I just stumbled across it again and I thought it was high time we had a little more love for eachother. So, without further ado:

We're all too mean to each other sometimes. Let's do the opposite for once! We've all got a lot out of this game and learned a lot from a whole load of different people. This is an invitation to tell them how you feel and hopefully for people to feel a bit more appreciated for their contribution.

Read the thread first and try to write a short paragraph about each of these categories, and if someone is receiving loads of compliments just give them a hear hear instead of writing more about them- try to give as many compliments as possible to people who haven't got any yet!

• Smartest political opponent (for these purposes, this should be someone in a party that is not politically adjacent or frequently in coalition with yours- and the reason should not be that they agree with you on some issue (an RSP person shouldn't pick a CNP person because they oppose foreign intervention, and a Nationalist Party person shouldn't pick bobbybarf because he likes Ian Smith!)

• Smartest political ally

• Friendliest political opponent

• Friendliest political ally

• Favourite newcomer

• Favourite oldie

• Most likely to succeed in IRL politics

• Any honourable mentions who didn't fit in any of the other categories
