The ConservaMath Medal is the merit-based alternative to the Fields Medal, with winners announced at the same time so that real achievement is recognized.
Deserving recipients should have solved a real, longstanding problem, rather than solving an invented problem.
Nominees Based on Merit
Ben Green apparently earned this award four years ago when it was given for an achievement he helped obtain, but giving the Fields Medal to him now might dim the star of Obama-supporter Terence Tao, making Tao less effective politically.
Likely Winners Based on Politics
This award has never actually been given, leading one to believe that it is simply one of Andrew Schlafly's "pet projects" that he lost interest in 5 seconds later. In other words, just another day here at Conservapedia.
The award was proposed in August of 2009, in response to a woman being nominated for the Fields Medal. Ironically, said woman did not win said medal.
