Senior Leader Name/ Gamertag: KSI Azrael 7 Current Rank/ Title in KSI: Senior DirectorCategory Nominating for: Senior Leader of the YearForums Profile Link: http://www.ksiforums.org/profile/386-ksi-azrael-7/
Reason: When I think of a solid KSI leader I think of someone that isn’t only knowledgeable, but also someone that shows that they care. I didn’t always think of Azrael as a great leader in this community, but after he became a director I started to see how he actually was. After I became a director I really had the opportunity to see what type of leader he actually was. After becoming a senior director I noticed how much Azrael does to show all of the members that he cares. I have talked to Azrael about many things that I have viewed as concerning, or even just something I disagree with. Instead of just listening to me and doing nothing, he brings the issues brought to him up in meetings and other discussions with the people that have the ability to make changes. Azrael has definitely proven that his is a great leader for this community and I would love to see him get some recognition for what he’s done.
Director Name/ Gamertag: KSI Thor 7 Current Rank/ Title in KSI: DirectorCategory Nominating for: Director of the YearForums Profile Link: http://www.ksiforums.org/profile/2841-ksi-thor-7/
Reason: First thing I want to say about Thor is that he’s been a Director for a while. He was my Director while I was LW Div Leader and helped me out a lot during that time. Part of being a Director is being there and helping the leaders below you with issues or things going on in that division. Thor didn’t just do that, Thor went above and beyond by being in parties with myself and the rest of my 7 staff on a regular basis even when there wasn’t any KSI business to discuss. Thor helped us become the KSI leaders that we are today. After I became a Director I still looked up to Thor and to this day I still discuss things with him when I want another viewpoint on an issue. As I’ve said Thor has helped me tremendously and I know he has helped plenty of others during his time as a Director, hope you get the recognition you deserve man.
Co-Division Leader

Current Rank/ Title in KSI: Director
Category Nominating for: Co-Div of the Year

Reason:Where do I begin with Ascend? The first thing I want to bring up about Ascend is his overall leadership ability. Ascend is by far one of the best leaders in this community and I'm sure many people would agree with that statement. I decided to nominate Ascend for Co-div of the year for the work he did while I was still LW Div Leader, and then also after I became a Director. While I was a Div Leader I relied on Ascend very heavily, after all he was my replacement and I wanted to ensure that he knew what was required from someone running a division. Ascend not only met expectations, but he exceeded them on a daily basis. Something that Ascend does, better than I ever have, is to be able to connect with all the squads and all of their members. He is the type of person that will take whatever time is necessary to make sure that everyone has the knowledge to grow into a future leader within KSI. At one point in LW we had a few squads that didn't have a General, Ascend stepped up and always did what he could to prevent me from having to take on one of those tags. At one point he was acting gen, managing the RCT tag, as well as helping me run an efficient division. I've always said this, and I truly still believe it, but a lot of my success has come from those below me, the primary one being Ascend. Without him there is no way LW would have been the machine that they were a year ago. I could go on and on about Ascend but I'll finish with this last note, Ascend is always willing to go above and beyond to better this community and to this day the following video is a perfect example of that. Keep up the great work Ascend, can't wait till you get back from LOA! Ascend Running Man Challenge
Dept. Heads
Name/ Gamertag: KSI Scotland 7 Current Rank/ Title in KSI: AAP Head Category Nominating for: Dept. Head of the Year Forums Profile Link: http://www.ksiforums.org/profile/17241-scotland/
Reason: I feel that Scotland deserves recognition for this award because he has been running the AAP Dept. both effectively and efficiently over the past year. There for a while forums awards were not being used, which definitely caused AAP dept. to suffer. Since one of the main goals of AAP is to have a dept. that recognizes the members for the work that they do it was not good to have this dept. only partially working. Since the forums have brought back the awards I have seen the participation in AAP skyrocket. Initially people were nominating others like crazy to make up for the months that awards were not being used. Scotland worked with Emmy and have built, from what I can see, a very good team around them. I’m sure it hasn’t been easy for Scotland but now that the team is working together more the dept. is definitely better than it has been at times in the past. Scotland, you have done a great job running this dept. and getting it to where it is today. I look forward to continuing to work with you as an AAP staff member so that this dept. can recognize all of the members that deserve some recognition.
