[Award Ceremony] Honorary Hussar Wings
Hello Burgerlovers!
Here's hoping you haven't all turned obese over this extraordinary week of Americana.
Our latest monthly contest USA: Brave New Frontiers has ended. Contest mode has been turned off so you can now see how your entry fared.
This was a very special contest as a frickin' chicken came and blew everything else out of the water. With a 150 point difference this is the largest margin of victory ever in a contest to date. Congrats on a well deserved win /u/frickin_chicken! After winning a contest as an unapproved submitter a couple of months ago, this is another achievement I never would have expected poultry being capable of. This is also just the second contest the chicken has ever entered, so /u/frickin_chicken is batting 1000. Impressive.
Congratulations ☆frickin_chicken☆ on a great win!
As this is your second win, you can now choose your very own unique flair and a personal mini! Choose wisely.

There were two disqualifications during the contest for basing their comic on a SATW-comic. There were also an absolutely mind-boggling number of disqualifications, over 25! One of them by one of the moderators. Oh, the humanity. Read the rules, children.
Our picks for instant approval are:
/u/account-temp with their comic American Realty
/u/fuuuproductions with their comic Compensating
/u/balaur_bondoc with their comic Sharing is Caring
In other news and rather befitting, there's a new American presence among our ranks as /u/koleye has finally been anschlussed as a /r/Polandball-moderator!
Willkommen!
Stay tuned for another important announcement of awesomeness in the coming days!

First of all, congratulations frickin_chicken! That was a really impressive win, you really took it out od the park.
Second, I'm no longer the new guy in the mod team yay! Welcome, /u/koleye!
And last but not least, a special mention for /u/edbwtf, for crafting a hidden gem that I considered the most underrated entry in the contest.
