This is a reasonable bill that allows for awards to be given to those who have shown distinguished service to our region, both in the past and in the future, when previously such service to our region was not honoured.

[Deep Dixieland Senator, Muad'dib (OSR MSR)]

We’re the only region in this game that lacks any sort of honors system.

Well this simply will not do. We'll all have to do something about that.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Motion for a final vote.

I agree it's time for the South to have an Honors System, the others regions have it so why don't we?

I also second the motion for a final vote.
