The Trireme Award
The Trireme Award originated from a passing remark from a member: "These terms are the worst since I was last chained to the oars..." Nominations are gained, therefore, by publishers and broadcasters offering terms little short of slavery.
Below are all the nominations to date. Eventually there may even be an award ceremony.
