Join the new world

Dear Citizens of eIreland,

Before we launch the nominations process for the eIreland Community Awards July 2011, the Ministry of Community would like to apologise for being so quiet of late. It was simply down to RL distractions and holiday downtime. Reports of our Country President’s 24 hour sittings in the National Interest have shamed us out of our slumber. Normal service has been resumed. We would like to take this opportunity to dispel the following rumours which have surfaced.

1. Ministers Colby and Keiller were not away fighting an extradition case against the State of Nevada. That whole incident with the croupier in Caesar’s Palace has been blown out of all proportion.
2. Agents of the newly elected CP, Irish_Rebel_Reborn did not seize the MoC’s gold bathroom fittings to melt them down to fund a PTO of Eire Aonair.
3. The lovely girls in the MoC typing pool were not sent back to their Macra na Feirme Clubs to be replaced by crack whores and thai ladyboys on the orders of ICA staff.
4. The funds in The Irish Community Org were not used to pay for Anger Management counselling for Viktor Kurgan, or to refurbish DerBrad’s cubbyhole.
5. The arrival of seanlynch onto the MoC staff did not cause a mass outbreak of exam jitters.


The eIreland Community Awards

Yes, it’s that time of the month when we get to have a say on the people who made their mark in eIreland.


Most Trusted Politician

Who of the current or recent TDs/Ministers etc. stands out to you as having fulfilled their campaign promises? Who's been honest and upfront? Who's served eIreland before themselves?

Minister of the Month

Who is your favorite Minister of the month? It can even be a Deputy Minister.

Most Acclaimed Publisher

Whose articles do you never fail to read? Who keeps you informed or entertained, who gets you thinking or explains things you might not have understood nice and clearly? Maybe they do all of the above.

Article of the Month

Which article did you enjoy most this month? It must have been published in Ireland

Most Celebrated Soldier

Which of our soldiers stands out to you as one who should be applauded? Maybe they're a great leader, a tireless fighter - maybe they're both.

Best General Manager

Whose company/companies are always well stocked with raw materials? Maybe they stand out for another reason - do they offer any perks you couldn't get elsewhere, or are the wages generous? If you think a general manager deserves praise here's your chance to give it to them.

Newcomer to Watch

Who, three eMonths old or younger, has already made an impression? Are they getting involved already, making their voice heard? Nominate them here.

Irelander of the Month

This can be anyone, for any reason. One Irish citizen who stands out to you as deserving of an award. Maybe they're a trusted poltician, and a great manager, and many other things... maybe they've helped you out when times were hard, or worked hard for the nation. Whoever and for whatever reason this is your chance to get them the attention they deserve. For this category a brief explanation of why you're nominating them would be greatly appreciated.

Loveable Rogue

They're mischief but you love them anyway, or they stir the pot without actually doing harm. Does this sound like someone you know? Please nominate them for this one.

Lifetime Achievement Award

Similar to Irelander of the month but nominees for this award should be people who throughout their eLives have stood out. They may not have constantly held positions of power but maybe they always were there to help you, maybe they turned your political party around, maybe they mentored you to greatness but all this over the longer term. All nominees for this award should have a citizen account at least four months old as of the day nominations open. Prior winners may not be nominated again. That Pantheon includes Nithraldur, Nogin the Nog, Moomoohead, Anaille Kolshire, 5n4keyes, Irishbhoy 1967 Grainne Ni Mhaille, Marcus Suridius and Irish_Rebel_Reborn.

Please PM your nominations to The Irish Community Org. And do try to make a nomination in each category. Nominations forwarded in the comments below will not count. A shortlist in each category will be published on Day 1369.


Yours,
Anthony Colby, Co-Minister of Community
James Keiller, Co-Minister of Community
DerBrad, Director of Janitorial Services
Viktor Kurgan, Head of Security (toilets)
seanlynch, Deputy Minister of Community and Assistant to Mr Kurgan
