The recent addition of the Prize winner role has been a great addition for rooms, including metagame rooms like UU, where we offer it out as a one of our prizes for our monthly official tour nights system. An issue with this role, however, is despite it being ranked lower than Roomvoice, mods aren't able to promote users who currently have this role up to roomvoice like they would otherwise be able to.

This is a minor concern, but this scenario did just come up for us last night, while our available room owners were asleep, forcing this promotion to be delayed until I could get on to remove the role so someone can promote later, and its an awkward and unecessary restriction when Mods already have the ability to promote up to a higher role than it.

[ On a side note, it'd be nice if there was a way of separately displaying this role somehow in rooms, given the probability that users already ranked + or above will be the ones likely to win these sort of prizes: see the proportion of users already globally ranked or room ranked in PU roomtour playoffs ]
 
I think it's an oversight; `/permissions set /roomprizewinner, @` fails by saying the permission isn't found.

To be clear, /roomprizewinner and roomprizewinner are different permissions, and the one you want is roomprizewinner, because it controls promoting to and demoting from prizewinner.

The default of disallowing moderators is intentional. By default, rooms do not have prize winners, and it's up to ROs to decide that they should.

The /roomprizewinner permission not working is an oversight, but you never want to do that anyway.
