Hey, mods! I got this award on a Thursday. Aren't they supposed to be Sunday to Sunday affairs? If I can pass it on now, I'd like to do that and help get it back on track, rather than sit on it for too long. Is that cool? Or should I do something else? merci!
I see you're about to pass it on but I just discovered you have it so congratulations phargle. A very fine AAR you are writing. I will be catching up again over the next few days.

Either way. It's usual for the winner to take a full week but it is helpful to have the awards run Sunday to Sunday. If you have one in mind and have felt the spotlight long enough, by all means pass it on.Originally Posted by phargle
All righty. I am deeply grateful for my four or so days in the spotlight, as it were, and I would also like to help this award move back to a Sunday to Sunday arrangement, so I'm passing it on today to get a head-start on setting things right.
My original impetus was to pick an AAR in my deeply beloved Crusader Kings section, but my second-favorite AAR there is one for which I am a contributor, and that would've just felt icky, and I am pretty sure my favorite AAR there has already earned its just rewards aplenty. . . so instead, I turn to the AAR I am enjoying in the EU3 section at this moment, and hope you'll all like it as well - a most deserving AAR full of awesomeness and an excessive amount of popitude:

Congratulations!
Stand up, all victims of oppression,
For the tyrants fear your might!
Don't cling so hard to your possessions,
For you have nothing if you have no rights!
Let racist ignorance be ended,
For respect makes the empires fall!
Freedom is merely privilege extended,
Unless enjoyed by one and all.
Congratulations Bingo!

Wow! I feel like Christine Lahti late to my own award with some toilet paper still dragging behind me! I can't believe I didn't see this beforehand. Thank you all for the congratulations, and many many thanks to phargle for nominating my AAR for this honor. It was most unexpected.
I hope any first time readers will enjoy the mostly history book tale of the papacy. While I have far more chapters in the rearview mirror than ahead, I think there may be enough twists and turns to come to keep everyone interested. Thank you once again.
Oh and I really do want world peace!!

The Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt: A History
My apologies to all for being a day late with my selection. I had some computer problems yesterday which prevented me from getting here. In any event I would like to again thank phargle for nominating me, and thank all of you who stopped by my AAR to read and or comment. A new chapter should be up tonight.
This week I would like to nominate a relatively new gameplay AAR from the HOI2 section that I have found quite entertaining while reviewing some choices for this quarter's AARland Choice Awards. Aside from the stunning modded in visuals, get in on this one in the beginning as one of AARlands favorite female writers helps the Dear Leader Kim Il Sung in a daring second quest to go: From Pyongyang to Washington- A North Korea AAR- TAKE 2!
Congratulations to Haru yo koi
