My only regret is that the hardworking writers of The Rejected Times tied for first. But first is still first. ^_^

Look out, EBC, first place will be ours for sure next year!

An error in which TBH/TSP were the winner of the political event award rather than TEP/TWP has been corrected.

here's a pro tip - if you want to actually win best political event of the year, don't manufacture it next time! TEP/TWP's whole thing was natural. natural drama is the trendy way to go right now. after all, natural salt is healthier than manufactured salt.
