ORAC's 7 Awards were a Blake's 7 fanwork award given for the first (and only?) time in 1989 at ORAC convention.
Other titles: "ORAC's 7 Fanfiction Awards" and "ORAC Awards."
Only fans who'd registered for the ORAC con were eligible to vote, so the scope of this award was small and very likely short-lived.
A similar award were Zen Awards, which were announced at Scorpio, a con that took place in Illinois, U.S.A.
From the first progress report for the 1989 con:
