Senior Leader - (Board members, Senior Director) @Mr. North Forward

reason:Im one of those people who have lots of questions, any time i message him or invited him into a party he was always with a response ASAP  if it was a message or jumped into my party. So when there was not a seven around i could always count on Ronnin and get that issue resolved or that question ans.

Director @KSI Cherry 7

She has a very outgoing personallity and nothing brings her down if sheis upset she hides it well and continue on with that spirit you need to keep moving forward. She is the one who help me stay when i saw nothing good coming out of Cyanide. She would get you excited about those div cup points and get you to want to sign up and get them points by participate and have fun on the events. She always has the time for either division she is over. You can always get ahold of her either discord or xbox with one of my many question and she always gave a ans.

Gamertag; KSI FuzzyMeep 7

Forums Account Link / @I am FuzzyMeep™

Reasons they deserve this award -Since my start with KSI this year Fuzzymeep has been there during 3 difficult times for me. He has never  felt that the position he holds made him untouchable. The first response I recieved from him I was just a CPL,  the second a SSGT, and the third a 3CPT.  The first was encouraging words in a message that I have carried with me and used to start stepping out and working up the ranks. The second was when I was kicked off parts of forum's and because he had corresponded with me to get my group and emote picked I contacted him. It was in the middle of this mess that when my 7 asked me how it was going about getting back on so I could document gamenights, I told him who was helping me. His reaction was, "do you know who that is? That's the highest ranking person in all of KSI". I immediately contacted FuzzyMeep and explained I had no clue who he was and apologized for bothering him on such small matters. He reassured me it was no bother and the important thing was to get me back on forums. He then stayed up till almost 2 am till he got it fixed.  I don't know of any other CEO's of companies that would care enough to help an entry level employee with IT problems lol.  The third one is on a much more personal level,. He is helping me get through some RL stuff and this has truly let me know that he is there for me, anytime. When we say KSI is a family,  fuzzymeep does not just say it, he lives it.

Gamertag; KSI Gruntier 7

Forums Account Link / @KSI Gruntier 7

Reasons they deserve this award - As a division leader he cares. He gets to know each member and never shows bias from one to the other. He always looks for the good in people and never over emphasizes the bad. He steps back and observes, learns the whole situation and does not jump in to make knee jerk decisions.  I am looking forward to working and learning more from him as I step out to step up.  

Category: Co-Fo

Gamertag; KSI Dragons 7

Forums Account Link / @Dragons 7

Reasons they deserve this award - Dragons is an incredible leader. He watches everything.  Anytime something may start to go in a not so great direction on discord, whether it be divisional or squad level, he swoops in to defuse the situation. I'm serious, he never shrinks back hoping another officer will deal with it. I really don't know how he does it except that he makes DM a 24  hour priority. He sees and hears everything and knows exactly what's going on in DM. He never flexes his authority muscle to deal with the issues but always does it on a personal and caring level. I can only hope to learn how he does this and be half as good as he is at it some day.

Gamertag; KSIxROMEO 7

Forums Account Link / @KSIxROMEO 7

Reasons they deserve this award:   From the moment Romeo recruited me at the tower in Destiny 2 to this very minute he has trained me, mentored me, corrected me, and cared about me every moment. Even when I feel I let him down due to my own insecurities,  and did not step up to be the officer that he knew I could be, he did not write me off or give up on me,. He still invested lots of time and "heartwork" to get me to come out of my shell. And I am so glad that he did. I still have lots of doubts about myself but he is always there to work them through with me. He goes way above and beyond to help his squad, for example, I know of 2 situations in which gamers have found themselves homeless and out of income and Romeo has jumped in both times and found them apartments and a job but the relocation was too much for these members to deal with. On a smaller side, Romeo knows I use my hotspot on my phone for my gaming internet due to being in a location were we dont get internet so if I get on my phone it will kick me off . During game nights, even if he works, he always jumps in and takes picks of party for me to help me with my attendance taking. Even as busy as he is as a Co-Fo now he still does so many caring things that may seem small but mean a lot to his squad.  I am confident in saying that I am positive I could not have had a better General to mentor me through this year. If it had not been for Romeo I am not sure I would still be in KSI and I know I would never have moved up from SGT. 

Category: Lieutenant

Gamertag; KSI CasualTee

Forums Account Link / 

Reasons they deserve this award:   CasualTee has hit the ground running since he came to Venom. We have 86 members in Venom and only 5 officers. He has jumped in and taken care of so much of the work  load such as promotions and gamenights. And one of the best qualities about CasualTee is you can count on him. It is so refreshing to have a fellow officer that goes above and beyond eagerly to help.

Category: SGT/SSGT

Gamertag; KSI Metalplains

Forums Account Link / @KSI MetalPlains

Reasons they deserve this award: MetalPlans is an incredible asset to our officers team. He has so much heart. He cares about each member on an individual basis. They are not members to him but family. He does his work and pulls his weight in promoting and gamenights but then he also is a special friend to our members who are going through RL. He doesn't hesitate to reach out to one if there is a hint of sadness or hardship on discord or in a party. He shared with me yesterday that in one extreme case he didn't know for sure what to say he just knew he had to say something. This guy has a great work ethic and an even greater heart.

Category: Member

Gamertag; KSI Joe 7

Forums Account Link / @KSI Joe 7

Reasons they deserve this award:  Let me start by saying that l love this member so very much. When I first came into KSI he was my CoFo. Now that I understand the ranking system and all the responsibilities of the higher ranks it is totally unbelievable to me the depth that Joe got to know his members. He was always on and always making sure everyone was treated right and having a great time. He stepped down for the good of the div when RL took a real nasty turn for the worst for him. Yet he stayed on encouraging and helping anywhere and everywhere he could. Again RL has sucker punched him in the face and when he was talking to me about his RL his number one concern was still the members. Through tears, in my eyes I read his message back to me "please make sure the younger ones know that I care". In my opinion, he deserves OS lvl everything.

Gamertag; KSIxRONL64
Forums Account Link: http://www.ksiforums.org/profile/37656-ksixronl64/

Reason:

There are multiple people that do a great job and deserve a shot at this but the reason I have picked Ron is that He has never let challenges slow him down. He has a great time playing with people but he makes sure his duty isn't neglected. We had Squad that was left to fail and he wanted to give it a shot and try and resurrect life in it. He left his home squad with a little worry but thought it would be OK. He tried several ways without a lot support to Help them. We have had a lot of Challenges at this time and Focus had not been on this Squad. Eventually a decision was made to shut down the Squad an put efforts elsewhere . This would have put most people think they wasted there efforts and I'm sure it crossed his mind. He went back to his Home squad and noticed his worries came true and wanted this quad to get back to being active so it wouldn't end up like the other Squad. As a 1st CAP he jumped in there and got game nights going again. When all the other distractions calmed down it was realized there was ha need for change. He was offered a shot at GEN after Not just handed to him. He kept his Drive of making Squad active and tried to ask people in the squad what they was missing. Things have turned around but still needs some help and even with Health problems, he has puts the squad needs first. I got to know him and respect him more than he knows. He is an inspiration and has won CPT of the Month 2 times but I think he needs this OTY for GEN for more than one reason.

Reason:

Same as above, several people can be looked at for this award. This is why I chose this candidate,

Since he has been in KSI, I have notices his name coming up in chats, Game=nights being helpful to his Squad any kind of way. He helps and even joins Game nights more than required. He Volunteers for KSI needs in several departments. He has earned and deserves his position by constantly and consistently helping out More than just his Squad. Willing to except criticism and learns from them and accepts responsibility along with accountability. I am very impressed with his helpfulness.

Gamer tag: KSI SEXYMOMA

Forums Account Link: http://www.ksiforums.org/profile/46473-ksi-sexymoma/

Reason:

There are people that you think are fun to be around and if anyone knows her like I do there is more to them. I never thought she would be Interested in being an officer. I will never say that again because of her. Watching her over time, she had been doing what an officer does and more. She has been a force in her squad to activity and promote team work. She knows the feeling of helping has its own reward, just don't take advantage. She is Brutally honest and if you are a friend she will set you straight first to keep you from looking like an idiot. She sides with the truth even if you might not like it. That trait is necessary for my friendship. I would rather you tell me i'm wrong to help me than agree and let you look silly. I have seen her help people even when she had her own problems to deal with and I cant get into details but definitely not minor problems, she never turned her back on anyone that really needed help. She has my utmost respect and I hope shes not mad at me for putting her up for this. 

 

 

[Shell 218]

Division Leader

Gamertag; KSI Gruntier 7

Forums Account Link / @ @KSI Gruntier 7

Reasons they deserve this award - I’ve said this numerous times, but Grunt truly cares about each member in DM. Whether they’re new or have been around for quite some time, he wants to make everyone feel like they belong. He also ensures the safety of our members at all times. Although Grunt may seem quiet, he takes his time to observe any situation before reacting to it. When stressful situations arise, Grunt always keeps his cool to respond in an appropriate manner. Even though he may not be the greatest at all games, he isn't afraid to sign up to participate in tournaments and events when others need a teammate. Grunt was also inducted into the DM Divisional Hall of Fame this year for all that he’s done for DM!

 

Founder

Gamertag; KSI FluffyPup 7

Forums Account Link / @ @KSI FluffyPup 7

Reasons they deserve this award - Kyle (FluffyPup) helped tremendously with troubleshooting discord issues when they arose. He has also developed a secondary discord channel with important information that members can utilize to help with recruiting procedures, training procedures, and much more. At one point this year he was one of two 7s in the division. With the size of this division, Kyle helped Grunt manage all five squads, ensuring that things ran smoothly even though they were down a couple Co-Founders. Kyle is supportive of all members in DM. He hangs out with everyone, regardless of rank. And, he’s always there to help support our teams when they need an alternate for Weekend Warfare’s and other events.

 

General

Gamertag; KSIxROMEO 7

Forums Account Link / @ @KSIxROMEO 7

Reasons they deserve this award - Unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance to really get to know Romeo until he was promoted to Co-Founder. However, when he was General I heard nothing but great things about him. So many people in DM look up to Romeo as their mentor; he’s trained several members that have now become great officers. As much as he his busy working or spending time with family, he always makes time for his KSI family. Whether that be jumping into gamenights on his phone to check up on everyone or using his Xbox App to deal with more important issues, you can always count on him to find a way to get online.

 

Captain

Gamertag; KSIDntAskImAwfl

Forums Account Link / @ @KSIdontask

Reasons they deserve this award - DntAsk is an amazing individual and leader. I always saw her posts around the forums before I even transferred to DM. The stories and posts that she makes on discord are so inspiring. She comes at every difficult situation from a personal perspective, which aids in solving issues. I know many people that are in her squad, and have heard so many great things about DntAsk. From what I can see and have heard, she is a great leader that other members look up to - Everyone loves her! Sometimes she thinks that because she is a 3CPT, she may overstep somewhere or doesn’t feel like she’s just as important as other ranks. DntAsk is a little shy, but has been breaking out of her shell and becoming more vocal about what she thinks is important for other members to know. I know that she will continue to become more confident and more outgoing as time progresses. She will continue to grow and become an even better leader than she is right now!

 

SGT/SSGT

Gamertag; KSI TangledHare

Forums Account Link / @ @KSITANGELEDHARE

Reasons they deserve this award - Tangled didn’t have a mic for a little while but he was still very active with the squad. During that time he would always hop into parties and talk in the xbox party chat to make conversation with other members. He was promoted to SSGT just over a month ago and has been doing a great job as an officer. He’s been consistently bringing in recruits and helps out with promotions. Tangled is still learning the ropes of being an officer. But based off of what he has done so far, I know he will continue to grow as an officer and accomplish great things!

Forums Account Link / @ @KSI Joe 7

Reasons they deserve this award - I first met Joe when I was a Co-Founder in CD. I was having issues within the division and right away Joe let me know that he was there for support, even though we had just met. Over the past 7 months (approximation) or so of getting to know Joe, I have come to find that he is one of the most  respected members amongst DM. Joe has done it all - he’s recruited many, and I say MANY people into KSI. There are people in all five squads within DM that have been recruited by Joe, heck I’ve even met people outside of DM that were recruited by Joe! This year Joe was General of Cruelty, which split into Venom. Joe was eventually promoted to Co-Founder due to his incredible hard work and perseverance. Joe is literally the nicest person I have met in KSI. He’s caring and compassionate for all members in DM, and if anyone is ever upset he is there to listen. He was also nominated into the Divisional Hall of Fame this year for these reasons and then some!

Forums Account Link / @KSI Akame 7

Reasons: KSI Akame 7 has been an amazing leader and mentor for Midgard LS. If there is a problem he gets it resolved quickly. I’ve watched him mentor many of the officers below him and helped them succeed and move up in rank. Akame is an amazing friend and team player as well. Very glad to have the privilege to know him!

Forums Account Link / @KSI STR8WRONG94

Reasons: From the moment I met KSI STR8 and originally heard about KSI, Str8 has been showing leadership to those around him every chance he gets. He is an amazing team player and great mentor. From being a SGT to now 2LT. I’ve watched him help recruits with everything, from changing gamertag to setting up their profile. 

 

[KSI Gruntier 7 152]

Category: Senior Leader 
Gamertag: KSI Veritas 7
Forums link: @VeRiiTaS 7

Reasoning: Rita has always been there for DM and it’s people whenever he's needed. Out of all the senior directors it was a tough choice to choose just one to nominate but recently within the last 6 months or so Rita has stood out more. DM likes to take care of things themselves but in the instances where we did need help Rita was right there either giving advice or taking care of a situation that was a bit over our expertise. Rita is always there when you need him and also likes to just hangout and play games with the members. There have been a situation or two where he got yelled at and didn't deserve it but he calmly diffused the situation’s as any great leader would. In my opinion Rita stands out as the best at his position which really is saying a lot considering his competition.

Category: Director
Gamertag: KSI TexAngel 7
Forums link: @KSI TexAngel 7

Reasoning: Tex has been our director for awhile now and in that time she has helped DM in any way possible. Whether it was through sage wisdom or just being there whenever I have a question or problem come up she is always available. I kind of felt sorry for her when she first became our director because for the 1st month or so every time she would pull me into a party it seemed like it was always bad news. It was something that we still joke about today it wasn't  her fault she was just passing information along. She keeps telling us that we’re stuck with her a while longer but it takes time to get to know one's director and build trust with each other which Tex has done countless times I know that she is there when and if I need her and that she has my back, which helps me have the confidence to do my job. 

Category: Founder
Gamertag: KSI FluffyPup 7
Forums link: @KSI FluffyPup 7

Reasoning: Kyle has done a lot for DM over time but I choose to nominate him for Founder of the year because I think that at that rank he has really shined at. When he’s asked to do something it’s usually sure no problem anything to help. He’s helped out on discord more times than I can count the amount of servers that he’s created to try and help out squads or DM as a whole. I know that not all of his ideas work out but it doesn't discourage him from trying again and again. One of his best ideas was the KSI everything you need to know DM specific. It’s a server for all the officers and any potential ones to join and it has quite literally everything an officer could need. This is just one example of the many things he’s done for DM. That is just the technical aspect. I’ve seen him take potential officers and officers under his wing and help them out by giving them advice showing special interest in them and helping motivate them to be better people. He plays games with the members and makes them feel welcome like any good leader would do. Even though he does get a little hot headed at times it does show his passion for KSI and it’s people when he sees someone being mistreated Kyle isn’t afraid to speak up in their defense and when he makes a mistake he owns up to it. I’m really proud of the leader that he has become. 

Category: Co – Founder
Gamertag: KSI Dragons 7
Forums link: @Dragons 7

Reasoning: Dragons was a hard decision on what rank to nominate for but I settled on Co-Fo because he really has excelled at doing everything that was asked of him and then some. Dragons not only goes out of his way to play with his two squads but he goes around to other ones posting in different squad chats always offering advice and help to anyone that needs or wants it. He is always trying to improve his squads by coming up with different game plans finding out people’s strengths and weaknesses and using those strengths to better DM and improving their weaknesses to make them better. He never seems to lose his sunny disposition always having fun and showing the fun of being in KSI. Dragons like all of my 7's staff show an overabundance of willingness to do whatever it takes to make certain DM continues to run well. Dragons also went on the initiative and created a weekend warfare channel to help members find teams for T&E which it’s been getting used a lot. Dragons has been and continues to be a pillar for DM and I look forward to seeing what he does in the future.

Category: General
Gamertag: KSIxROMEO 7
Forums link: @KSIxROMEO 7

Reasoning: What can I say about Romeo that hasn’t been said by countless other people. Since I’ve known him he has always been a people person. He goes into a party and starts a conversation and treats them like he’s known them for years. He earned being a general by way of taking a split which he was instrumental in doing. Shortly after the split several of his officer’s stepped down it was basically him and one other officer doing all the work until he found more officers. The one fault I can give him is with his pride he didn’t want to accept help from the 7's staff. Over time he grew his squad and his officer staff and did an outstanding job on growing and building a lasting foundation for his squad. Today his squad is the biggest most active squad in DM and it is due mostly to his leadership skill and those that follow him. He has since become a Co-Fo and he’s able to pass on that knowledge to two different squads.

Category: Captain
Gamertag: KSI AWOL
Forums link: @KSI AWOL

Reasoning: AWOL has always been there for his squad. He’s usually one of the first people to volunteer to host a game night or host a workshop. I’ve seen him go out of his way to greet new members no matter what squad they are from he’s always there for them. When the squad is having problems he actively looks for solutions if those don’t work out he tries another tactic. AWOL is really big on communication with his fellow officers which has been crucial in helping out his squad. He hasn’t been doing it alone he’s not afraid to ask for help from his fellow officers which is a really good thing in a leader. AWOL really stands out to me because like everyone else that I nominated this year truly does care about his fellow KSI members and he took on rank and continues to help out.

Category: Lieutenant
Gamertag: KSIDntAskImAwf 

Forums link: @KSIdontask

Reasoning: anyone that has meet Dontask would agree that she not only does her responsibility's as an officer above and beyond expectations but she also has a way with people that sets them at ease after a few minutes of talking to her. I’ve noticed that when she hosts a party people just love to join it and instantly start talking freely and open with her. It’s hard to describe because I’m terrible with words but she has a natural ability for a lack of a better word to actually listen to people and their problems sometimes she offers advice and tells something personal that she’s gone through so they know that their not alone. Other times or I should say always she finds a way to encourage them and motivate people to do better be better. Whether it’s her talking in a party or through words on discord or the forums she’s always helping build people up and helping never tearing anyone down. As a matter of a fact I don’t think I’ve ever heard her say something bad about someone I’ve seen her disapprove of something someone has done and corrected them but never tear them down.

 

Category: SGT
Gamertag: KSI MeShell 7
Forums link: @KSI MeShell 7

Reasoning: Over the last year MeShell has held several different ranks in KSI and at each rank she really hasn't changed just the level of responsibility. The reason one of many why I’m nominating her for member of the year is because since I’ve known her she has always done what she can do to help out. When she wanted a transfer to DM for a fresh start I was excited to have her here because I had seen how she was with her fellow members in CD. I knew that if she brought that mentality to DM she would be an excellent addition to our DM family. When she transferred she didn't want rank due to IRL and had to concentrate on her studies and rightfully so. When she came into DM it was to a squad that was in the process of rebuilding activity was pretty much non existent. MeShell was instrumental in helping boost activity she would join official and unofficial game nights and she would be the life of the party. She always encourages people to play together and just have fun. On top of that she’s always chatting with members in discord asking how their day is going and just being an all around great person. There are several people that I can think of to nominate for member of the year but MeShell really has a way of standing out. She genuinely cares about her fellow members getting them involved in games even Roblox a game several people swore they would never play but she showed the fun in it and gets people to play together. People enjoy joining her party’s and hanging out and everyone respects her because she respects them.

Gamertag: KSI Joe 7
Forums link: @KSI Joe 7

Reasoning: Joe has always been there for his fellow members no matter who they are he always has a way with him that is warm and inviting. Whenever he meets someone new he’s always says “nice to meet you dude nice to have you in KSI” on top of that Joe always likes to get to know the members and asks their names if they are comfortable sharing it with him and I don’t know how he does it but he actually remembers all their names when they pop into a party. That is the type of guy Joe is he cares about people he has been seen as a bit of a father figure, counselor and mentor to many in DM. Joe doesn’t care who you are he will play with you and help out.

Reasons they deserve this award - I honestly dont know where to start, I dont think theres a single person in WD who hasnt heard of Folkstyle, Hes only been with us for a few months and has already proven his dedication to KSI, Folkstyle is apart of several departments and doesnt let this distract him from his squad or officer duties he hosts several gamenights and workshops a week basically never misses a meeting. In his short time here Folk has already become a forums master and is always willing to share his knowledge, hes helped me navigate my way through the forums on many occasions. folkstyle goes above and beyond for his squad and Its members daily, I feel he deserves this award and the recognition more than anyone else.

Folk I know your probably going to read this so thank you for all that you do.

Gamertag; KSI T1GER

Forums Account Link / @KSI T1GER 

Reasons they deserve this award - When I joined KSI Cyanide was nothing like it is today, no one played together or bothered to get to know one another, the only time you saw other members was meetings and they left the second it finished, the officers of the squad werent properly trained and no one really knew what they were doing. When tiger took over as Gen she worked for days trying to reach out to all of the members personally to get to know them all learn what games they play and ways to get them more involved in the community, (not being fully trained herself) Tiger also taught herself what officers are really supposed to be doing and started training the officers the right way (this helped the squad greatly) Cyanide today is growing rapidly with full officer staff members connecting with each other and on the verge of a split. this wouldn't be possible without the days and weeks of work tiger put in the beginning just to simply reach out to lost members. Tiger has made cyanide feel like a second family.

Reason - if you ever need a very detailed explanation for anything Ronin is 100% the person to go to!

Category: Senior Leader

Gamertag: KSI VeRiiTaS 7

Forums Account/Link:  @VeRiiTaS 7

VeRiiTaS is one of the Senior Leadership in KSI who has gone above and beyond. He treats everyone equally and was there personally and professionally during a hard time for me, that also led to me having to step down ultimately a second time, when I was on the DM 7 staff. I have personally witnessed him helping members during bad times, like with helping keeping them safe from attacks from blacklisted Gaming Communities, to helping them out with dire, life situations. VeRiiTa's advice and just him chilling, is always helpful to me and others. Its easy to take notice of that. Rita cares about KSI through and through, and I truly believe he deserves this award for his dedication and hard work that he puts into all of KSI.

Eli, aka, Gruntier, has been a stellar person, ever since I met him, back when he first joined KSI. He always knows how to show people the fun, especially with his one liners. I had the pleasure of working with Eli this past year once again, and even more so the pleasure of seeing him come into his own as an amazing Division Leader. He is quiet and humble, but will get right to business, making tough decisions, when he has to. He cares a ton for DM, as well as all of KSI. He shows all the members the fun, no matter what. Eli never complains, and even if something is going on in his personal life, he'll put that aside for any fellow KSI member, regardless of rank. We've seen the ups and downs of things together. Somehow, Eli always knows how to take a positive and turn it into a negative. He has made DM into a family oriented Division that people feel is a safe haven, like their home. Myself, and many others, are very Thankful for that.

Dragons is very well respected and has done a lot for DM this past year. I remember his furst run as a Co-Founder. He hasn't changed since, which is a great thing. He is very Professional. Always making sure to punish in private, and promote in public. Witnessed him doing both, and he does it with such Professionalism and charisma. He took on the cap of web ops over this past year, among taking on a lot with clan ops. He helped fix up an entire squad when he transferred. Thanks to him, it's still alive and flourishing under his leadership. Dragons is a fountain of knowledge, always willing to pass it down to others. He is passionate and dedicated to KSI, through and through. He'll play anything to please the members and branches out to all of the squads in DM, not just the one's that he's over.

This category is hard to choose, for me especially, as some know how highly I feel the General rank is held. Not this time. ROMEO is one of the best Generals I have seen in my 6+ years here in KSI. His skills are a force to be reckoned with. ROMEO practically ran his squad solo at one point in time. He slowly built it up to be one of the best squads I've ever seen in DM. When I stepped down, the second time from the DM 7 staff, I surprisingly chose to go to Venom, because of how ROMEO built this squad up, after he made it from a squad split. He recruited, trained, promoted people and growth in his squad, while successfully having amazing member retention. Everyone is always hanging around Venom, as it's infectious, and he turned it into a primarily Destiny 2 squad that every Destiny player wants to be a part of. He makes everyone in his squad feel important. He leads by example. He is a man of utmost respect that not only helps his members out with anything and everything KSI related, but also anything non KSI related. Everyone feels comfortable going to him, as he's non judgmental towards anything, and will even pull an all nighter to help anyone out. He has branched out to do this with all the members in DM now, but trained up some amazing officers and taught his entire squad how to respect one another. A very rare trait to see. Even at work, he'll jump on the Xbox app to check on how things are going. Not to mention, he's been acting Gen twice over his squad now, and once over another squad in DM, always happy to be there to help. ROMEO deserves this award and has all the aspects every General in all of KSI should be.

First off, I must say I never met such an amazing, warm hearted soul such as Pam, aka, DntAsk. She is an amazing and aspiring person. She does it all. People from the Board of Directors have taken notice of her, with good reason. They see the kindness and genuineness that this woman upholds. She is nice to everyone, no matter what. I've never seen someone go out if their way like her, as she jumps on to see if game nights are running smoothly, jumps on when it's inopportune for her, if she sees someone needs a Promotion, putting her own self aside. She hosts weekly open game nights, to ensure everyone in her squad is having fun. She gets to know every member, and spends time with some struggling, whether it be KSI related or in real life, truly offering and trying her best to help them, any way she can. Pam is so respected in her perspective squad and all of DM. She helped me once, and had me tearing up, all in a good way, during some really hard times. This woman exceeds officer expectations. She mentors others to be the best they can, especially when they first take on rank/responsibility. People respect her to an outstanding extent, with good reason. She even buys games she wouldn't normally play, just to play and get to know members in the squad. She even does her own "Member of the Week Spotlight", where she asks a member every week a series of questions about themselves, so they could be known throughout the squad, posting it in the squad chat server. She makes people feel special when promoting them to PVT, CPL, and SGT. She is a true gem that DM is lucky to have. On top of that, she is super active on the forums, always posting encouraging things and participating in stuff. She thrives to learn more and more. I can't wait to see what the future holds for her here in KSI, as it will for sure be a bright one.

This guy is a role model SGT and SSGT as well, making him the perfect candidate. He came into KSI trying to put up a tough shell. Didn't take long too see through his "tough" exterior. He is an upstanding guy, always jumping into any party, showing the members of DM what having fun and gaming is all about. He helps people in games, and even by listening and offering advice in real life situations. MetalPlains is always inviting others to parties too, making them feel Welcome. He attends many game nights, even if he doesn't have the game. Recently, he's been trying his best to learn what it takes to be a great officer, no matter what. He listens to constructive criticism, and tries to better himself from it. He truly cares about KSI and bonds with people to just be their friend and be there for them. We are all thankful to him, for that and much more.

Michelle, known to some better as MeShell, is such an asset to all of DM. She is super sweet nice, and infectious, especially her personality. People love being around her, understandably so. She even infected DM with a love for ROBLOX, myself included, as she knows how to get a party of people playing and having fun like no other. Michelle stuck it out as long as she could in her old Division. She came in and bought all she learned and experience to a great squad that many in DM call home, as it's basically like the flagship squad. She rose up to General again, very deserving of it. She compromises everything any member in KSI should be, and more. She spreads all her fun and awesomeness around the DM Discord server and the squad she is currently over. We are all happy and lucky to have her here. She has gained so much respect here, very quickly at that too.

Reasons they deserve this award:

When i joined KSI, Gary was the division leader of DW. I believe he deserves this without a shadow of a doubt as when he was div leader he made sure that he made time for all his members both professionally and socially, he’s always positive and is forever making light of bad situations and even though he is no longer of DW anymore he still makes himself available for advice and guidance. He handles all issues tactfully and respectfully and is very approachable. He has great leadership qualities and i believe that because of that he is where he is today.

He really is the true definition of caring and compassionate. He handles issues immediately and always looks at the bigger picture exploring all outlooks rather than taking the easy option. He is a born leader and mentor, treating everyone as equals rather than numbers. Havoc is full of nothing but positivity giving you the assurance and motivation you need when you’re full of self doubt.

He is entertaining, funny and free spirited. These are all qualities that make him the great leader that he is, because despite all of this, he is a team player. he is all about equal opportunities and working together to achieve together. Recently becoming General of Samurai, Bane has shown great leadership skills by communicating effectively with our squad. He takes the time to listen to the needs and ideas of the members giving everybody equal opportunities to voice their opinions and suggestions. He’s not afraid to act a little silly and joke around but he always steps up and takes his role seriously handling issues in a professional manner. He is always positive and fair and that is why i believe he deserves this OTY nomination.

Reasons they deserve this award - Grunt is the most respectable man in KSI I have ever met. He always has a light attitude about everything, but when something needs done, he knows how to speak softly and carry a big stick. Through out this division you will never hear a bad word spoken about him and thats not because hes never had to piss someone off, but because everyone knows when its time for business, he gets it done. Ive witnessed several accounts of him going day after day of gettting on, but staying at the home screen just so he can hear out situations, even the ones that he doesnt even need to bother himself with. This man always has an ideal to make a bad situation, into something the members can agree on. He is the kind of leader who will listen and hear out everything before taking any kind of action. He has had the back of every one of us fellow 7s in DM and has helped us all understand what it means to be a respected leader.

Reasons they deserve this award - I had a hard choice trying to decide if I should put him for co-fo or gen, mainly because he is/has been great at both. I chose to put him for gen because while he was general this year, he really took off with being the kind of leader he is today. Throughout all of DM, you will never find a person as loved by his squad as Romeo. He has a family and works 50+ hrs a week, but always found time to get with every member of his squad and organize all of the squad activities. The squad, VENOM, has really taken the helm of DM and become the "rock squad" of this division. This was all because of the dedication Romeo put to it and has instilled in the officers of that squad. Romeo is not just the best gen i have seen this year, but the best gen I have ever seen.

He may not be the biggest recruiter, nor the best shooter, but it will be hard to find another member who cares about the "little people" as much as he does. Everything he has done, has not been for himself, but for the betterment of his squad and division. Infact, I remember earlier this year how hard it was to even get him to want to be an officer, but when he saw his fellow squad mates struggling, that was what made the decision to step up and be an officer.

Joe has really shown all of us in DM what it means to be apart of this online family and stick up for the ones we care about. Even when he stepped down earlier this year, members still knew/know, if you go to joe, it will be fixed. It can be irritating at times how people will go to joe before they even go to an officer, but that is just to show the level of commitment to DM he has and how loved by his peers he truly is.

The first time I met him he was very welcoming and offered great advise, he has always been a person i could rely on in a time of need, or just for friendly advise.

Reasons they deserve this award - Ahhhh M3NTALIST aka vinnie to those who know him, now Vinnie is by far the greatest up and coming leader I have seen in my 4 years in this amazing community, we have all heard the saying "take the bull by the horns", well vinnie made that saying a reality by truly earning every promotion he has had within his short career in KSI and the reason I believe he deserves COFO OTY is simple and that is his no nonsense attitude and work ethic, he has singlehandedly settled disputes, mentored multiple officers and future leaders stayed awake until 3 in the morning to ensue=re people have certified workshops completed, constantly helps members with KSI advice or even guiding them on games that they have just started playing. he has assisted multiple members with games and name changes and above all he knows what he is capable of. if vinnie doesn't have the knowledge to resolve something he will either get someone who does or he will gain the knowledge needed to do so. (example: there was a time as a general he never fully understood his role. so in turn he took an LOA not just for personal reasons but in the entire time he was on LOA he searched and scoured the forums for the knowledge to fulfil his role as General. upon his return he was motivated more than ever and took his squad from 42 members and a stretched officer staff up to 70 members with a full officer staff and everyone trained fully). and it is these reasons I believe he deserves this OTY.

Reasons they deserve this award - Now BOOGS deserves this award for a few reasons firstly is his first time as a captain, he spent countless hours in the day to day running of the squad, recruiting multiple people in, training even more to ensure that everyone was welcomed, hosting squad meetings, workshops, gamenights and mentoring those below him this in turn took a lot of the pressure away from his general as he was shouldering the burden by his own volition and his commitment was second to none. Now with this he earned his promotion to general but it was short lived as his real life took a turn and he had to step down from the position, he had sat as a Sargeant for quite some time before making the commitment to move back up the ranks and in turn he has put the effort in once again no less than his first time round and has returned to the rank of captain and has again taken the time to mentor, train and encourage members to show the dedication he has to this amazing community

Reasons they deserve this award - Mr Samurai is one of those officers that you come across very rarely, he is a very approachable in every aspect of the word, he will give everyone the time of day whether he has an issue with you or not as his main aim is to ensure everyone is enjoying themselves and is as knowledgeable as possible, he even stays awake until 2/3 in the morning to host gamenights and workshops to make sure everyone in his squad feels involved and part of the family, his constant dedication to his duties has recently earned him his promotion to captain and this is why I believe he deserves this award

Reasons they deserve this award - Str8 is a one in a million officer, he had been in KSI a hot minute before becoming truly active and it wasn’t until recently that he made the leap of becoming an officer, he is currently sat at a lieutenant and the motivation this guy has to progress himself and his squad is unbelievable, he is always seeking advice and knowledge to better the squad and he completes his duties efficiently and effectively without any prompts or being asked, he has recruited more than his fair share of people into his squad and is constantly looking to get more people involved and included and I can see this member being a future division leader maybe even higher, I believe that he has yet to show his true potential and this is why he deserves this award

 I don’t know if I can even say all of which this man has done. In simple terms he has been someone that goes above and beyond in all he does, if he has to learn something he tries to get it down asap so that he can be of help to Athena grow and become the successful squad it has become.  He always is asking what he can do not just to improve himself but the squad.  I can see this man becoming a amazing General one day.

Reasons they deserve this award - even though she has become general only recently she had done a phenomenal job as Cruelty's general and I think shes has done everything she can to help out not only the officers with their duties but is also working really hard to get the current member and new ones as comfortable as possible and making sure they are happy. I only joined DM like a few months ago and she was over in hellborn then she transferred to Cruelty, during that time she has worked really hard top move up the ranks and become gen. not only is she a great leader she is also a great person to be around, I donk know what it is but I feel like she has this type of arura that just draws people to her and that's why she can relate to people so well. overall I'm proud that she is my general and I dont know who else is more deserving than her to receive this award.

Reasons they deserve this award - I only have known Romeo for only a little while but during my time I believe he has done a great job and our co-founder and he works just as hard as the members if not harder than them. and that's what I admire about him, even thou he's a leader in DM he dose some of the dirty work like the rest of the members and that's something that goes a long way. he's always on top of the officers if they are slacking and he sets a example of what a officer should look like.

Reasons they deserve this award-when I first joined productions skarz was a co-head and teaching or helping the new members getting used to the environment. I joined a couple months after leaving T&E and was immediately welcomed with open arms, and skarz told me that if I had any questions about the department I could just dm him or send him a msg on xbox. not long after I joined I started to stream a bit more and starting to enjoy every part of streaming. and he had a lot of impact over how I would do my streams, he would also make a few suggestions on how I could improve my streams in the future. he was a big help with improving every stream I have done is the past and future, and when he became head of productions I was really happy for him because he really deserved it and I feel like he worked really hard to get that promotion, I could not be happier to work for a guy like skarz and I look forward to see what he has planned for productions in the future.

Reasons they deserve this award - T1ger deserves this award because since I have joined KSI she has been nonstop making sure the squad stays up to date and on top of their duties. She is always helping others throughout the squad whether it be a small situation or something big like a split. T1ger pulls the whole squad together and shows appreciation to all the members. She cares about the opinion and cares about squad mates having people to play with. Not only is she a great general but also a good person. She is easy to talk to and respects everyone. Overall Cyanide is lucky to have a general like T1ger who is devoted as her.

Reasons they deserve this award - Ever since I have joined I have seen folkstyle going above and beyond in all areas but he definetly excels at being a captain. With his open door policy and willingness to help others, he has taught me a lot. From common advice to his workshops I have enjoyed how he approaches situations. He logically thinks them out and thinks of the best outcome as a whole. He’s always helping others within the squad, hosting great workshops, and be active across the board.

Reasons they deserve this award - What else is there to say but he’s a jack of all trades. Recruiting, training, promoting, and being a active squad mate are all subjects that he really shines in. He recruits many members, helps train or promote many of them and he has his game nights with pulling all the members together. He’s a excellent member and has participated in almost everything. He helps grow the squad and bring it together.

Reason they deserve this award:

KSI BlazeCoMay has been in KSI just as long as I have if not a little longer. When I first joined KSI she was one of the first people I met and when I met her she greeted me with excitement and was inclusive. Even after being in KSI for a while she continued to greet me with that excitement and continued to be inclusive when it came to parties and playing games. She is this way to all people in the squad especially the new recruits. Greeting them with that excitement and making sure that she hangs out with them. BlazeCoMy does not only greet people with excitement but she also is very active. She makes a good effort to show up to all gamenights no matter what the game is. She also invites people in the squad to parties or joins them on a regular basis just to see if they want to play something or hangout.

KSI MeShell 7 has only been my squads General for a few months but in those few months, she has gone above and beyond to get our squad back on track. MeShell makes sure that the officers have eveything they need in order to help run squad activities and keep people engaged with the squad. She will even go out on recruiting nights with her officers to help us try and bring new recruits into our squad. Not only does she do everything she can to make sure officers have everything and to keep the squad running, but she also finds time to interact with the squad and she does this a lot. She attends almost every gamenight and she will invite people to parties or join parties throughout the day just to see how people are doing and if she does not see them on Xbox she will send a message in the squad chat on discord. She is a very dedicated General when it comes to KSI.

Reason why they deserve this award:

KSI Kratos18 was the very first person I met from KSI and he welcomed me to this community. Kratos I quickly learned was a person who cared about this community and the people in it and it showed. He always invites members no matter if they from a different squad or not to a party just to see how they are doing. If he noticed someone was having a bad day he would always ask if they were alright and if they wanted to talk about. He was a very easy person to come to when you wanted to talk. Kratos also always attended peoples gamenights and urged others to join in as well, he still does this. When it came to his officer duties Kratos was very passionate about what he did and he loved doing it. One thing that stands out to me the most is that Kratos is not a quitter. Even after multiple setbacks, he continued to be an officer in KSI which I personally think shows his perseverance. Kratos is both an officer and person that I personally look up to and I know others do as well.

Romeo has been there since I first joined and has just been a giant help for me ever since I decided I wanted to be a an officer and helped me out with stuff and I just love the way he runs things because if some one has a problem with something or someone he’ll just pull them into a party and just talk about it until the situation gets resolved or what ever it is and helps people understand things easily. And when I’m hosting game nights he’ll hop into the party making sure everything is going smoothly. He just dose an amazing job at running things.

Ok joe has been there for me since the day I joined he started off as my general / co-founder when I was in Cruelty I he was just so welcoming when I first joined and that’s one of the things I loved about him. When I told him I wanted to be an officer he was the most helpful supportive person about. He was there just about every single day teaching me giving me tips and just went out of his way to help me. And he just knew on days when I was having a rough day he ask me what’s wrong and he’s just the kind of person you can talk to about things. He goes out of his way to help people constantly. And I just really appreciate it.
