It's time to hand off the title to another worthy WritAAR, and I'd like to hand it over to Alfred Packer. His Wehrmacht News & World Report AAR is very creative and entertaining and Mariano's Dream is hilarious. I feel he's deserving of the award and therefore name Alfred Packer as the next WritAAR of the Week.

congrats AP ... well deserved as ever
Congratulations, AP! The WN&WR is certainly offering a fresh perspective on World War Two and I'm enjoying your madcap quest to put (the descendant) of a two-bit - no, make that a one-bit - Sardinian count on the throne of all of Russia. May we see some more updates now, please?
PS: I hadn't commented on this before, but how fitting that Mariano starts his journey in a manner so in keeping with you forum nick's namesake.![]()

Since Alfred Packer seems to have disappeared, I'll name a new WritAAR of the week later today. I'm going through some AARs now and will edit this post once I find a writer I think deserves the title.
EDIT: I've decided to hand the torch over to Gensui Yamamoto for his interesting alternative-strategy Japan HOI3 AAR.

Ok, this is a comment from all the moderating team for the AAR forum, even if under my name.
We've been talking about participation and how to sustain interest in the bits and pieces that make this forum something a little bit more than a collection of great writers and knowledgeable, informed, commentators. For the most part that is things like the various libraries, the ACAs and these awards.
Now in the last couple of years, I've lost count of the number of times one of us has stepped in to keep these moving. We usually chase both the current holder and the person who last made a nomination and usually that produces a response (we do this as we know that people drop in/drop out of the forum due to their other commitments). Sometimes the responses are of the ilk - I'm too busy/I can't be bothered/I don't know how.
Now it currently seems as if this award has gone into abeyance.
Which is a real pity. Judging by the pleased responses of both recipients and other commentators, these awards (this, fan of the week, weekly showcase, character writer) are indeed part of the strange glue that holds AARland together. It motivates writers (certainly motivates me) and is a very direct way in which we can express appreciation to someone.
But
we've decided, we are not going to step in and make an award to get this moving again, nor will we on the other awards either.
Instead
here's a question to you as a community. Do you value these awards, and, if so, what do you suggest is done to prevent the all too frequent problem that they become stuck?
I definitely don't think this award should end. Perhaps if the recipient has not named a new winner after a week we should have a vote in which every member can nominate one AAR/WritAAR he or she thinks is worthy and at the end of the week give the award to the WritAAR with the most votes?
