			<description><![CDATA[I agree with Kenneth's view. It indeed funny when the award starts with 3rd Prize with no first or second prize. It seems that Kjell's suggestion to indicate judge's view in the comments, is the best method. About the Prizewinner: The variation 1...Sc2 2.Qc5 shows the Gamage unpin (not Goethart). See my 3rd HM. The Problemist, 2011 which shows FOUR such Gamage unpins. 5k26RK1p6bB1pppp11r6Q. #3 1. Ra7!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This all means that there is no universally agreed rule about how the distinctions should be numbered. But I, personally, would have given just a Prize in a case like this - and if I thought the problem was not on a "1st Prize level" I would have indicated so in my comment.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Interesting question. Awards are at the same time relative (how good is this problem compared to others in the same tourney?) and absolute (how good is this problem related to some universal standard or at least related to everything else that has ever been composed). Most judges take the level of the distinction (Prize, HM or Comm.) to indicate the "absolute" value of the problem, and the number of the distinction (1st, 2nd, 3rd etc) to indicate the relative value within that level. But even this is not always true, as a Prize in a small tourney is often comparable to an HM or even a Comm. in one of the great tourneys. And sometimes there are actual prizes that should be given to the 3 or so best entries, regardless of their absolute value.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Shouldn't the 3rd Prize be only Prize because it is only of it's kind Somehow I feel funny if award starts from 3rd prize]]></description>
