Reasoning why they deserve this – Where to begin, Ascend deserves this award first and foremost because of his hard work and dedication to not only LW but KSI as a whole. He is constantly throwing out new ideas and trying to mix things up so no one gets bored. Any time he possibly can he is interacting with LW members. His leadership skills are simply amazing. I, as well as many others, have learned so many things from ascend. He always takes every moment to teach and help the people looking up to him grow. Example is where there is a problem, he uses this also as a teaching tool, to teach others how to handle issues, what to do and not to do, and how to learn and grow from that experience. While ascend can be serious and make sure standards are followed, he is also the most down to earth guy I have met. He gets on your level when you are speaking to him and tries to understand every aspect of the situation. He also is very fun to be around. When just hanging out with him he is laid back, cracking jokes and just having fun. This shows others that the higher leadership is not “scary” or mean, this shows them that the division leader, while he may have to make decisions and pass out consequences, is also a down to earth, fun guy just like everyone else. I could go on for a while, but ill leave it at this, ascend has taught us so many things, I strive to be the leader he is. He is the prime example of how a leader should be, able to chill have fun and get to know everyone in the division, but when he has to he makes the necessary decisions for the division and member. He is calm, fun, caring, strict, down to earth, kind of guy. He makes sure everyone feels equal and appreciated. He inspires many people and I know he will continue doing so.

Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) – KSI xFatality 7 (Co-Founder- LW)

Reasoning why they deserve this – Fatality deserves this award because of his dedication and drive even through the tough times. He came back into KSI and helped bring a squad back from almost near death, to close to splitting. Fay is also helping bring Caesar back to life as their acting General. He is determined and focused. He takes advice, and adjust accordingly. He puts out new ideas and is not afraid to say his opinion in a discussion. While Fatality does have a strong leadership personality, he is also an amazing guy to talk to. He will talk to any member within LW about any issues, whether it is KSI related or personal issues. Fay upholds all the standards set forth here in LW. He recently started trying to get everyone in the division to know one another a lot more and have a friendly competition, by having squad battles every week. This is definitely a fun thing for everyone to do and come together as a family. Fay takes the family part of KSI and tries to expand it everywhere he possibly can. He is always reaching out to others in KSI to see if they need help in anyway or bring LW together with other Divisions, by having game nights with one another. Fay is just a chill, laid back guy with great leadership qualities. I have watched him grow a lot just since becoming a 7 in LW. The future holds big and great possibilities for him.
General
Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) – KSI xBush (General- LW/Paladin)

Reasoning why the deserve this – Bush is an outstanding General. When you first meet him, you would think he was very quiet and reserved, but he isn’t. Bush pays attention to his surroundings. He takes in information, and listens to what is going on around him and from there he tries to help the issues or problems that are going on in the moment. He strives for greatness. While he is very laid back, he knows how to talk to his members in such a way that they do not feel like they are being talked down to or “yelled “at. He talks to others in the same way he would want to be talked to. He is encouraging and showing appreciation for the officers and members within his squad. He is striving for, not only to keep squad activity up but to bring LW together more. Constantly setting up joint game nights, putting out new ideas, or even help tweak certain ideas we put out. Overall, he is doing a fantastic job. He has continued to build paladin up (now they are about to spilt).

Reasoning why they deserve this –MS Kitty is one of those people who never stops until she knows the job has been done correctly. The growth from this woman in such a short period of time has been amazing. She has really grown into a great leader. She never lets anything stop her. Bad days, personal stuff, and in the good days, she is always there ready to help the members in Samurai and even in other squads. She follows the KSI Standards as well as LW Standards and makes sure everyone not only knows these standards, but follows them as well. She makes sure she is involved with all members in the squad. She continues to help the growth of the squad by going out recruiting multiply times a week.She is constantly encouraging people to become officers, and to participate in more things within ksi (such as game nights, fun night, weekend warfare,etc.) She works very hard to ensure her replacements are where they need to be and that all officers have the correct information that they need and making sure they know their rank duties. While she is her own worst enemy when it comes to any mistakes, when someone else is talking to her and teaching her, she takes it in strides and uses that information to better herself. She has grown into a wonderful, caring leader. I am super excited to see what the future holds for her here in KSI.

Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) – KSI xRestless (3LT-LW/Samurai)

Reasoning why they deserve this – Restless deserves this award because of her drive and fun personality. She brings something fun and new to the table within the officer staff. She has a laid back personality, but when it is needed she will 100% make the necessary decisions. She is not afraid to ask questions to strengthen her knowledge of KSI. She is also not afraid to speak her opinion when needed, or make suggestions to plans. When under pressure, she handles those situations very well and calm. Since day one of being in KSI her drive and will to learn everything she could about KSI and being an officer has been outstanding, and this has not changed about her.She is always looking for new ways to grow within her position. Restless is always one step ahead and thinking and planning ahead. She is always out trying to recruit and checking the recruit tag for anyone to get trained off. She is very involved with members in the squad. Always encouraging them to be active, participate in events and learn about the forums. She is just a fun person to be around. She loves to joke and have fun, which is always an amazing quality to have as an officer.

Reasoning why they deserve this – Neko deserves this award because hands down she is just an all-around amazing person. I am nominating her for member because her dedication for this community goes way past a rank. Neko has a heart of gold and that shows a lot within KSI. She loves helping anyone and everyone, but will stand her ground when the situation calls for her to do so. She protects and cares for members. Neko makes sure everyone has the correct information and is always sharing new information as she learns and grows herself. She is all about teamwork. She is constantly making sure everyone is working as a team, and if not she is 100% going to make sure they do. She is always trying to add to the growth of both squads she has been in. She was very dedicated to Paladin, but after her 360 broke, she moved over to our Xbox one squad. Her determination and drive only grew stronger, when she was moved into a squad that needed more help than the previous squad she was in. Neko is definitely a very strong leader. She has great communication and shows awesome leadership skills. I am super excited to see what’s in store for her next.
