Description[?]:
| My employer has instructed me to draw up a list of candidates for the 'Greatest Ever Aldegarian Award, which he is generously sponsoring. After much detailed research and sifting through thousands of names, I have...umm...come to the conclusion that there is only one candidate upon whom this great Award can be bestowed upon, and that personage is His Grace, the Grand Duke of Hikirena, Alexander Bartholomew Shaftesbury. I would like to invite the Grand Council to recognise this Award by officially declaring His Grace the Greatest Ever Aldegarian. Percy Waterman (Personal Secretary to the Grand Duke of Hikirena) |

| Message | The voters should probably decide on this one, not the Grand Council. |
| Date | 08:33:56, October 28, 2005 CET | From | Fenner Brockway Socialist Party | To | Debating the Greatest Ever Aldegarian Award |
| Message | It's interesting that the so-called "libertarian" party believes that the greatest ever Aldegarian is the Grand Duke - a supporter of slavery! |
| Date | 12:19:31, October 28, 2005 CET | From |  Ducal Delegation | To | Debating the Greatest Ever Aldegarian Award |
| Message | The only difference between His Grace and FBSP is that His Grace wants some people to be slaves and some people to be non-slaves, whilst the FBSP wants EVERYBODY to be a slave to a twisted, politically correct, socialist-fascist state. Percy Waterman (Personal Secretary to the Grand Duke of Hikirena) |

| Message | Well the PC suggested this award should be held as a general election, essentially the party felt that the people's strong endorsement of the DD over all other parties meant this resolution had strong standing. Additionally, it seemed a strong political move. |

| Message | His Grace is most grateful to the Neo-Liberation Party for supporting this motion, although he is disappointed the other parties did not take up this opportunity to express their appreciation for everything he has done for this country. How can our nation expect anything other than mediocrity if we fail to recognise greatness when we see it? Percy Waterman (Personal Secretary to the Grand Duke of Hikirena) |

| Message | The PC Party does not the Neo-Libertarian Party to put words into our mouths. Is the Neo-Libertarian Party perhaps suggesting that the people should not be allowed to speak? So much for the "libertarian" part in its name. Or does the Neo-Libertarian Party consist of inept mathematicians who cannot realize that while the Ducal Delegation gets a plurality of votes, it never receives a majority (from a majority, as a matter of fact), which means that an overwhelming majority of Algedar's people actually do not support the Ducal Delegation. The Neo-Libertarian Party's lack of sense is amusing and scary at the same time. |
