Popular Post KSI Starset 7 569 Posted November 16, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted November 16, 2020 Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI Airborne 7 - CDM Link to Forums Account: @KSI Airborne 7 Reasoning: Airborne has been a vital piece to all the departments since his promotion to Chief Department Manager. I can speak for what he has done for me and my department. He has been here my whole journey in AAP. When he promoted me to Department Head, it was clear that we’d always have a line of communication whenever I needed it. He was readily available for myself and the other department heads to help out when and where needed. He is always trying to think outside the box and is open to new ideas throughout the departments. Category: Director Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Link to Forums Account: @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning: I feel Swag’s best work this year was at Director. This man is the prime example of how a leader should be in the community. He’s faced some hardships during his time as Director, such as the former WD 7 Staff all dipping out at the same time and having to help rebuild the division from the ground up with leaders such as DC and Harley. Swag is very keen on ensuring everyone is accounted for and talked to, even goes out of his way to make time for members who want to talk and game. He also is big on education and making sure the leaders below him are trained efficiently and properly, setting up everyone below him for success. Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Rogue 7 Link to Forums Account: @KSI Rogue 7 Reasoning: I feel Rogue did his best work this year as a Division Leader. This man was the life-blood of SL. He ate, slept, and breathed that division. Always providing a positive and intuitive atmosphere for everyone in SL. He helped continue to grow SL into the powerhouse it is today. Rogue played a big part in pushing through education of materials to the Generals, Officers, and 7’s Staff to keep everyone informed and prepared for anything they may have to do or come across. He always made time for the members and was the Voice of Reason during the peace talks in with Hydra in SL, getting all the members input on the situation. That tradition has become a stable in SL, having the leaders utilize Discord for a town hall type of meeting. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DC 7 Link to Forums Account: @KSI DC 7 Reasoning: DC has had one hell of a year. He started off his journey in SL. His impact in SL was widely known. He was there for all of the members, he was actively helping the squads he was over with recruiting, all around helping push them towards the right direction. He was also instrumental in officer training and ensuring that any officer moving up the ranks was prepared and trained to the fullest extent. He took his experience and tools in SL to WD when they needed help. Since his arrival in WD, he has been actively pushing towards the improvement of the division. He is one of the key leaders in the community. Keep grinding man. Category: General Gamertag: KSI HARLEY 7 Link to Forums Account: @KSI Harleygirl Reasoning: Mama Harley, what is there not to say about her? She is an amazing leader who centers herself on the idea that her squad and division is a family. That family aspect truly pushes the influence that not only her but everyone is here for anyone. She was a great leader in DW before the merge and going in WD gave her the strength to keep pushing forward and strive for greatness. She is one of the sole reasons WD is still around today. I feel that as a General, she excelled the best. She was always on top on her of her duties, always readily available for anyone no matter the circumstance. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI BLITZ11 Link to Forums Account: @KSI Blitz11 Reasoning: I feel Blitz excelled the most in my eyes at the Captain rank this year. He was a Captain in Elysium DW before the merge and then Elysium SL. When he was a captain, he was instrumental in making the gamenight schedule every week and hosting workshops throughout the week for members that needed it. He was actively teaching lower ranking members how to recruit and sat in on a plethora of recruitments to make sure it was done correctly. He used his personality to his advantage when it came to inactive members, approaching them, messaging them, trying to get them back involved and informed. He was my right hand man in Elysium, when I was his General and then his Co-Founder. Category: Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI MrsBlitz Link to Forums Account: @KSI MRSBLITZ Reasoning: I feel MrsBlitz here did an amazing job at LT throughout the year. In this position, she was the master at Member Retention. She constantly was reaching out to members and getting gamenights and squad activities popping. She was also there to help put the other officers with recruiting and training. Category: Forums Staff Gamertag: KSI VENUM 7 Link to Forums Account: @VENUM 7 Reasoning: Chad 2 Bad aka Venum truly embodies the way of the Toxic Mod. He actively is watching the forums for any stuff that may go down, he sits in on every interview for new hires and is always available to help out when and where needed. He played in big part in revamping the Rejoin/Join area and building its staff with suitable Join Mods. If he swings the Ban Hammer, know it was for a reason. Category: Department Member Gamertag: Loyalty Paradox Link to Forums Account: @Loyalty Paradox Reasoning: I feel Killer aka Loyalty Paradox has done his best work in my eyes as a Department member, specifically in the AAP Department. Upon his arrival in the department, he was actively trying to learn more and do the best work he could. He asked me countless questions and used that to further his knowledge of the department. He was always clean with his work and never had any issues. When he was promoted to Senior Staff, he used the position to help the department and others. Anytime a question popped up in our chat, there he was answering it or providing input. I’m excited to see what his next move in AAP is, thank you for your hard work. Category: Member Gamertag: KSI xSpartan Link to Forums Account: @SPARTAN MAN1911 Reasoning: Spartan is the GOAT of all members in my eyes. He is the nicest person in the world and is always down to talk with you or play a game with you. Sit in a party with him for 5 minutes, I guarantee he’ll be on your Top 10 Best Friend’s list in KSI. He’s one of those members, when you look at a squad, who constantly brings a fun attitude and life to the squad and party. Spartan is one of my favorite people in the community, keep doing your thing and providing a positive influence.

KSI Tea 7 108 Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DC 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI DC 7 Reasons they deserve this award: DC not only being a Co-founder for SL and then leaving SL to go and help WD. He has also helped the News team and became the Head of education, and co-head of AAP. DC even now being sick, has put his all into his work in this community and continues to do so. His work and dedication is seen through out the community and is always someone that can be counted on. With several examples one being the other night while in a gaming lobby DC dropped everything to go help his division that was in need. With that he has won several awards for his acts and deeds as well as being someone you can count on for ever listening to for personals matters or to just to be a friend. He always strives for perfection in his squads and understands that with growth comes challenges. DC works hard to make everyone feel included, he welcomes all new ideas and helps implemented them in to his work. He does his help to help other like I stated previously he volunteered to go to WD to help them in need which many people know is hard coming to a division where no one truly knows you. He to this day has a positive attitude and continues to try to make WD the best it can be. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons they deserve this award: There is so much I can say about Uppish so where do I begin? When I first joined Uppish was a fresh gen only being in for a few months. Since then I have seen him grow and become the Head of the News team as well as a fresh Cofo for the New division CS. His positive outlook on life and KSI has been proven by his work. There is not a da that goes by that i dont see him actively recruiting, talking with members or helping the next generation of Officer staff. Even with many obstacles in his path he has been able to over come them with large strides and i cant be more proud to call him someone I look up to. When it comes to this past year the HELLBORN Squad, ( Now called Rebellion) has grown in to something more than just a squad. Its a family. Through his constant dedication i have seen RCTs come in and stay and become more part of the community which is something not a lot can say. Uppish while still in college is able to juggling his school work, his job and KSI and still come out on top. His achievements show how amazing he truly is, he has been nominated several times for General and Captain in the past for the OTMs, he is constantly working hard to grow his squad and community and its always giving back to that community through his works on AAP, nod the news team. He has helped so many individuals including myself and i know he will only continue to do so with his time in KSI. Deep down this man is someone to look out for and deservers to be recognized for his hard work and dedication to this community. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI JAK KNIFE 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI JAK KNIFE 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Jak is a an old man in this community. He joined over 5 years ago and his dedication to his community has been seen several times. This year jak has gone up and beyond what is required for a Captain. He has been there for his general and has helped him and guided him through this year. Jak is always in parties with people recruiting and being someone others can look toward for help might that be rcting, to become and officer and overall leadership. Jak has been able to help the Hellborn squad to grow and to gain and train new knowledgeable officer staff that have been able to help grow the community as a whole. Jak is a mentor to all those who want to learn more in this community. When I first joined back in 2015 he took me under his wing and got me to being a 1st captain several times ( now there are no numbers but i am sure you get the point). With work and being a single dad Jak spends as much time as he can with the community but still having fun. He has held so many members with gaming and being a friend to all. Jak is an amazing person and is an amazing role model to new officers who one day will be running the community when we have all retired. Category: Lieutenant Gamertag: KSIxJOKER Forums Account Link / @: @KSI J0KER DM Reasons they deserve this award: What can i say for joker? for being so young he has learned so much and has been an amazing addition to the KSI community. Joker has put his heart and soul in to learning for his higher ups and has dedicated his time to his community. I have seen him grow and move up the chain of command. If he makes a mistake he always learns from them and is never one to say he's right, he has learned from them and moves forward. In the beginning i could tell he would be nervous hosting Game nights or even speaking publicly however he has blossomed in to a fine young man and an amazing officer. I know him and Jak will split their current squad and he will become an amazing general one day. He has gone up and beyond what is asked of him and will continue to amaze me. Joke takes time getting to know each and every single member, when he is recruiting he makes the induvial feel at home and welcomes them that they become great assets to the squad! I as a member am proud of him and i hope he gets the recognition he so greatly deservers. Category: Staff- Sargent Gamertag: KSI Draconic Forums Account Link/ @: @KSI Draconic Reasons they deserve this award: Draco has always been a sweetheart and someone i have had the pleasure of knowing! He is always willing to listen to me and my lectures about the old days and listen to some of my old lady advice! he is always willing to help member's in games and has became very prolific in the the squad and through out the division. Draco ( now a captain himself but i cant do a muitli vote for that haha) Has learned from his higher ups and continues to learn from others around him. His game nights are always fun! he helps and accommodates all players and even tries to introduce new games so there is more variety through out the squad which is such a breath or fresh air. He continues to rct and does it with ease, his positivity and way with people and members makes those around him feed off his positive energy. I know he will continue to be an asset to this community and will be an amazing general himself on day. He deservers to be recognized for all his hard work!

KSI Zordon 112 Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Category: General Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Uppish 7 I have been in KSI over a year. During this year I have personally went threw trials and tribulations that were both in and out of my control. During a short absent period one person was always there to check in on me and assure me that threw it all I am still a member of a team and have a home in this virtual world. Anything you throw at this guy he takes it. Always striving to be the best, I have personally watched him achieve his short term goals. I am honored to call him a role model, a rock for those who are in need, and a smack of wisdom when you're off the line. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI JAK KNIFE 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI JAK KNIFE 7 Jak is a natural born leader with a laid back demeanor. Don't let that fool you, he has no problem keeping a lobby professional yet fun. This year and since i've known him he has always went out of his way to step in and step up when needed. If someone couldn't make it, Jak was there. I couldn't think of a better officer or Captain to have in my squad. What would we do without him!?

slay 22 Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Joe 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Joe 7 Reasons they deserve this award: This man knows no bounds. He is the most consistent and caring member of this community. Since I rejoined KSI in April, this man was there. Took a shot on me as he does with many other people in this community. I didn’t expect much when I rejoined, considering just being a member but Joe’s charisma and demeanor influenced me to do more in the community and so I did. In doing more, I got to know Joe and see how he operates to an extent. There have been many accomplishments, trials and tribulations that Joe has endured, including some of which, creating Sinister DM, mentoring and training, 7s, Generals, many Officers and Members. He is on socializing with as many members as he can, getting to know them and know how long it’s been since they’ve been around for personal reasons. He’s up until he has to go on his bagel runs in the mornings. He has also had to endure two squad folds since I’ve been in KSI, an event that happened because of many members leaving from those squads, including the former Divisional Leader. Even though he has not retained the title for a prolonged amount of time, he is the divisional leader DM has needed for a long time. Joe does everything he can to ensure that every member has the chance to receive a great experience in KSI. He does all that he can, his duties as a 7, assists the officers and myself, and plays with the members and ensures the transition of the remaining squads grow. He has recruited, promoted, and mentored more people than anyone i have met in KSI. Joe is an equal member and a great one at that. If anyone in KSI exemplifies the qualities of KSI, Knowledge Strength and Integrity, it’s Joe. Thank you for all you do and I hope I am able to continue working with you for a long time coming. You’re a great friend. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DntAsk 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI DntAsk 7 Reasons they deserve this award: She is one of the kindest souls I’ve had the pleasure of coming across in DM. Along with Joe, she’s had to endure many trials and tribulations in KSI and stood by Joe’s side and they got through them together, ensuring that DM’s legacy continues on and that it’s path to being a strong division continues as well. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Lilith 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Lilith 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Ladypad has been a General nearly the entire time I’ve been in DM. She has impressed me with her organization skills and consistency in relation to her role. She has stuck around during the past few months, and in times of chaos helped provide stability for her members, and assisting her leaders now colleagues. She communicates well with her members and officers, and being active on the forums as well. I hope to learn many more things from her in the future. Category: Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Ocean Power Forums Account Link / @KSI Ocean Power Reasons they deserve this award: A loyal friend and confidant, Ocean is such a caring member. He listens to your day, a great person to wind down your day and chat with. When Joe or I ever need to hop away for a few minutes after talking to a new member, Ocean engages with them, chats with them and sees who they are and how they are. I am thankful to have him in my squad and as a friend. DntAskImAwfl, KSI Joe 7 and LadyLilith6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

KSI DaKeech 68 Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Category: Director Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: This man works harder than any person I've seen. This man went from founder all the way now to Sr. Director. He has been over WD for a bit and did amazing with what he was handed. Even over SL and now the brand new div CS, he will show great success over there and will keep making many great leaders to follow in his foot steps. Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Rogue 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Rogue 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Sense coming back to SL I've seen lots of improvements this leader has done. Within the first few days of being in SL he impressed me a lot and motivated me to rank back up. He is always in party's and games with thr members of SL and continues to do the same now as Director. He has trained many current 7's like KSI Slick 7, KSI N3WERA 7, and even KSI Kakashi 77. This man is the definition of KSI and what it stands for. Many current members of SL respect him and I've had the pleasure of watching go from Co-Founder all the way to Director and hopefully even higher. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI Slick 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Slick 7 Reasons they deserve this award: What is there not to say about Slick. Slick is one person who at one point in time was higher but now I have the pleasure of saying MR. Division Leader to him. He has saved 2 squads and has trained way to many leaders. Some people who he has trained was KSI NEWERA 7, KSI WuTang 7, and now GEN of Templar KSI Huntartt. He is always working to help others not downgrade them. His leadership skills and overall mindset is overall amazing. He is one person if you ask to play games will has zero problems actually inviting you and just playing games. Overall he is the leader SL and KSI deserves. Category: General Gamertag: KSIxAsuma 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSIxAsuma 77 Reasons they deserve this award: This man has made a great officer core and has done so much for SL. He he is not just the GEN of Prestige but also Co-Head of products. This man is someone that you can go and hang out with and just chat and chill and bunch of other stuff. He is lucky enough to say he is following the footsteps of Kakashi 77 and to be in the hall of fame in SL. I can't wait to see what him and his officers can do in the future. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI IrishEmu Forums Account Link / @: @KSI IrishEmu Reasons they deserve this award: Back when I was GEN over in Napalm WD this woundful leadee was a great right hand man and a great friend to me and all the members in the squad. He had his entire officer core leave while he was the only officer and even worse a SSGT, but he kept pushing on and soon after Abaddon merged into napalm and he was a powerhouse. He would do everything it seemed like and would lead the leaders below him and would always be on time for doing everything. Now to see him as a GEN is great and I see lots of potential in this young officer. Category: Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI C0untry Forums Account Link / @: @KSI C0untry Reasons they deserve this award: C0untry has lots of potential to be an amazing leader in the future. His mentoring skills are unreal and its kinda scary. He trained KSI zChoji who had just became an officer and the chemistry he bring between the three of us is unreal. I hope to see him take my spot as Captain in the future and wish for him to only go up from here. Category: SSGT Gamertag: KSIGAARA2405 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI GAARA2405 Reasons they deserve this award: Oh man gaara. He has been a huge help of being apart apart of this officer staff. His work ethic is um matched and is always looking to do something when there isn't anything to do. He reminds me on me from when I first joined KSI and started going up the ranks. With him I see nothing but greatness and potential. Category: SGT Gamertag: KSI zChoji Forums Account Link / @: @KSI zChoji Reasons they deserve this award: Oh my where do I start. Choji is one of my new officers I'm already scared of. While trying to become an officer this member was working day in and out trying to be promoted and when the day came the entire officer staff gave him a HUGE scare but over all ended up being a good thing. If I was to be promoted of step down in the future he is one i would have no problem taking my spot as CPT he he is only a SSGT. I can for sure see choji as a GEN in a year no doubt. Hope to have him as my officer for a long time. KSIxAsuma 77, KSI Slick 7 and KSI Rogue 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
KSI Tripped 55 Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI IrishEmu Forums Account Link / @: @KSI IrishEmu Reasons they deserve this award: Since I've joined KSI I felt he was very welcoming. Always open to join a party just to see what's up and how everyone's day is. It's very nice to have that in this community. It's awesome when there will be a game I feel he don't even like and he will join and play still. It's pretty dope! Category: co-founder Gamertag: KSI DC 7 Forums account link: @KSI DC 7 Reason they deserve this award: since I first joined his recruiting workshop just felt he did so well and helped me alot with recruiting ended up recruiting bout 15 people next two weeks after that and got promoted. He has alot of awsome awards as well and just truly deserves it I feel. Edited December 11, 2020 by KSI Tripped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
KSI Slick 7 91 Posted November 25, 2020 Report Share Posted November 25, 2020 Category: Director Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Swag is one of those guys who you truly just don’t get. This man is all over everything. Top to bottom left to right Swags on it. Swag has a way of teaching without you knowing your being taught. He works tirelessly for improvements and success. He never gives up and is always willing to help you no matter your stature in KSI. I’ve known swag for about a year now and he’s never stopped. He’s KSI’s energizer bunny realistically. He’s always on go and ready at any second for anything. He’s reliable and solid as they come. And a genuinely great leader and role model for the community. Category: Div Leader Gamertag: KSI Rogue 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Rogue 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Cofounder of the month now how many times? Okay all jokes aside, Ive worked along side Rogue for the majority of my KSI career. He was one guy that really stood out to me when I was a fresh aspiring officer who didn’t know jack and was eager to learn. Best of all, he wasn’t even in my squad. He’s been a tremendous influence in countless members, officers, and even 7s staff success. Saying he is passionate about this community is honestly diminishing because he’s beyond those definitions. The guy cares about everyone from the newest recruit to his guys and gals above him. He always strives for progress, success, and most of all fun. He’s a blast to be around, is always there for advice and guidance and is just someone who’s made mine and so many others experience with KSI one to remember. He was an outstanding Div Lead now presently a Director and he’s done it with the upmost respect, professionalism and integrity one can do it with. SL would not be what it is and will be with out his influence. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Newera 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI N3WERA 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Once upon a time, I handed the keys to my beloved squad to this guy and did so with confidence and ease. Newera isn’t just your average run of the mill KSI general. He’s got brass, charisma, and drive for perfection. Excuses can’t and will not get your anywhere with this man. This guy absolutely manhandled his squad but not in a terrorizing way. He was on top of everything, his omega, his clubs, his officers, the education, the retention, and most importantly the teamwork. Newera can sometimes rub you the wrong way if you don’t know him, but rest assured this guy simply means business. He’s a work first play later kindve guy and has mastered nearly any and all duties he’s ever had. He’s very knowledgable and works hard for those around him. He’s a great team leader and team mate to tackle tasks with and is always willing to go that extra mile. He’s been a pleasure to work with since the beginning and is someone I truly consider a friend. His jobs never done until every last card is counted and every last rock is turned. He’s detailed and organized and quite creative as well. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI WUTANG 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Wu Tang 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Allen aka WUTANG has been and always will be one of the hardest workers in the room. This guy works 60+hrs a week every week and still was always there for his squad. He volunteers for any extra work or duties with no hesitation time and time again. There is a reason he was neweras successor. He sharp, focused, and on point at any given time. But more importantly he’s kind spirited and cares for his members. He provides warzone dubs for those who can’t get them on there own like my self haha, but seriously he’s been an irreplaceable asset to his squad and now this division. He really works for this community and it’s members and I sincerely applaud him for that. Category: Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI xAthenax Forums Account Link / @: @KSI xATHENAx Reasons they deserve this award: Athena has been an all around STAND UP officer. Since becoming a Sgt she’s done amazing. Then as she became an officer she has excelled in every area. Training? A breeze. Game nights? Packed. Workshops? Effortlessly executed and interactive. Member retention? By the book. She’s efficient, skilled, and dialed in. She has zero issues executing her duties and is always gaming with members. She’s fun to be around and is always willing to learn new things. She really kicked butt and I’m excited to see where she goes next. She’s got that X factor we always keep an eye for and I have great faith she’ll go far. Category: SSGT Gamertag: KSI Dakeech Forums Account Link : @KSI DaKeech Reasons they deserve this award: When I first became acting gen of knights SL, I had one officer and a boat load of issues to fix. Then an old friend hit me up and said hey Uhm if you need help I’m here. So one thing led to another and in a Couple weeks we had 4 officers instead of 1. Recruits coming in, promotions. Being done and game nights rocking again. I thank dakeech for that. If there is work to be done he’s on it, if someone needs someone to talk to he’s there, he has great social skills and can often be the life of the party. He works hard on his tasks at hand and is dedicated to his cause like no other. He reminds me of my younger self quite a bit and I think with some time and effort he’ll really be an all star in the not so distant future. The guy just doesn’t stop delivering and I sincerely applaud him for that. KSI Rogue 7, KSI DaKeech, KSI Uppish 7 and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyalty Paradox 707 Posted November 26, 2020 Report Share Posted November 26, 2020 Category: Department Head Gamertag: KSI Starset 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Starset 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Starset has went absoSchuckinglutely above and beyond for this department, this man lives, breathes and Poops KSI. He has nurtured myself and every member of this department individually and made this department the powerhouse of KSI that it is today. I am a staff member of old and have been under a couple of leaders (shout out to Scotty!) But the activity level of Star is more than what the head should put in but never the less this guy throws himself at a role like an unsolicited drunk chic to a mumble rapper at an unlicensed house party. When he does eventually move away from this department and it is left in the hands of some poor soul with massive boots to fill I hope they can apply half of the dedication he has and continues to show.

The year of 2020 has seen Kakashii go from being a SGT all the way to the current LCC. That in itself should be enough. He is continually making the time to be with the members of the community to train the current and future leaders of the community. There was a time when Kakakshii felt that he would not be able to do what was needed to help the squad that he was over, but with determination, he was able to rebuild a squad that was struggling. Kakashii has taken his time to work with the leaders of the community on shaping the future of it. He has been involved with the peace talks with the Hydra Alliance and helping to mend that bond. The list goes on and on.

Slick has shown resilience as a Co-Founder in his duties and time he has spent with the members of his division. As Acting General, he worked very hard to get a squad that was struggling, back on its feet. He has been able to make an impact and mentor many people. He how now taken on the role of Division Leader in SL and is continuing to work hard to build this community stronger. This man deserves this award. Lieutenant: Gamertag: KSI xATHENAx Forums Account Link / @: @KSI xATHENAx Reasons they deserve this award: It has been a great thing to see how Athena has shined. She joined the community only a few months ago. Since day one, she was a superstar in the squad. She has continued to exceed expectations that have been set for her. Her time as a Lieutenant was amazing! She stepped up to the plate and got work done. At the time I had no CPTs and she stepped into her role and her and the other LT helped with doing Captain duties as well. Athena would and continues to spend time with the members of the squad and provide amazing concepts to help better the squad. I am grateful for her hard work and determination. #WhatSide?!?! #StrongSide!! SSGT: Gamertag: KSI KHOSEC Forums Account Link / @: @COD3SILVER Reasons they deserve this award: Where to begin? KHOSEC has worked very hard with his time as an officer. He has taken every changed thrown at him and taken it head-on. I do not believe that there is anything this man cannot accomplish when he puts his mind to it. #WhatSide?!?! #StrongSide!! Forums Staff (Mods, Senior Mods, Admins): Gamertag: KSI VENUM 7 Forums Account Link / @: @VENUM 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Venum has been a great asset to the Forums team. He is well versed and knowledgeable with being able to handle situations that arise and understanding the best course of action. Venum has worked hard to be there for the members that he oversees and makes sure that they are well equipped to help them with what needs to be done. Department Head: Gamertag: KSI MeShell 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI MeShell 7 Reasons they deserve this award: MeShell has worked tirelessly to make the productions team what it is today. She has taken the time to revamp how things are done within the department and it has done wonders. Shell has continued to work with the members of the team to be the most qualified and prepared for their tasks. Enough said, this woman is a superstar! Department Member: Gamertag: KSI Gosuko Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Gosuko Reasons they deserve this award: In the time that Gosuko has been in the productions department, he has been a rock star! He streams multiple times a week, engages with his fellow streamers, and brings up moral for the team. Gosuko takes the time to help out his fellow streamers when they have questions and has continued to work hard to be the best he can for the productions department. Even though he is at BMT for the military, I know that when he returns, he will be as solid as he was when he left. Member (Overall best member of the community for the year): Gamertag: KSI GHIDORAH Forums Account Link / @: @KSI HIDAN Reasons they deserve this award: Let us start with the first time that I met GHIDORAH over 6 months ago. When we first met, this guy was a chip of the ole block. He was the life of the party and understood how to have fun. He spent 5 months as an officer. During that time he was dealing with so many things in his personal life. This man has no quit in him and would not let things stop him from being the best that he could be. This man not just as an officer, but as a member as well took the time to break down barriers and be a friend to everyone that he came into contact with. It may seem like a difficult task, but GHIDORAH worked hard to help the members spread their wings and meet new people. He did not do any of this to make himself look better or because he was an officer. He did it because he understood his "Why". GHIDORAH's "Why" for being in this community, is to bring people together and make sure they are having a good time. Even when he personally was struggling and not having a great day, he would still put a smile in that voice and be there to cheer up the family(KSI). Thank you KSI GHIDORAH for all that you have done this year for the squad and this community! #IWouldLikeToMakeAStatment KSI Gosuko, VENM VII, KSI KHOSEC and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSI GAARA2405 15 Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) Category: Lietenant Gamertag: KSI xATHENAx Forums Account Link / @: @KSI xATHENAx Reasons they deserve this award: the reason I am nominating this person for this award is because they have been there for me when I needed help when I got promoted to SSGT. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place and she has stuck with me throughout my hardships, she is always super helpful and extremely kind to all. She is very thoughtful and full of information. She also has an answer to all of my questions and when she doesnt have the answer she refers me to someone that knows within a few minutes. As a captain she is very professional but definitely knows how to let her hair down (anyone that knows her knows what I mean by this). I personally think she deserves this award because of all of these reasons and more Edited December 3, 2020 by KSI GAARA2405 Wrong rank typed KSI ATH3NA 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is always willing to go out of his way too help any and all members of KSI. He puts so much heart and effort into making KSI the amazing community it is today. And on top of that he had made a new workshop which is a very educational workshop! He taught the Leadership 101 class and with his explanation on everything. I learned so much!!!

KSI Uppish 7 525 Posted December 5, 2020 Report Share Posted December 5, 2020 Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DC 7 @KSI DC 7 DC and I have been friends for over a year now. We have often had clashing opinions and ideas, especially over hot button issues and many heated conversations transpired from that. But we always kept cool heads and had a civil conversation. That's approach DC takes to everything he does in KSI. He uses that big brain of his to think of several different solutions and picks the best one to move forward with. Crunk is also one of the most selfless leaders in KSI. He literally SWITCHED DIVISIONS just to help WD from spiraling and potentially having to close. He's smart, creative, and great at explaining his point of view in different ways so people can understand why he thinks the way he does. Crunk is someone every person should watch as he continues to rise through the ranks and impact KSI more and more. Captain Gamertag: KSI JAK KNIFE 7 @KSI JAK KNIFE 7 Jak, my old friend, I'd be lost without you. This man is literally the GOAT. I give a lot of people extremely high praise, but none more so than Jak. Whenever I feel like pulling my hair out because someone is driving me bonkers, I go to Jak. As a 5-year KSI member, he's seen a little bit of everything and how to handle it. Jak has been a consistent voice of logic and reason even when I want to go nuclear. There aren't enough words in the English language to describe the amount of respect I personally have for KSI JAK KNIFE 7. That being said, Jak has been a Captain for TEN AND A HALF MONTHS THIS YEAR. I'd send the Omegas screenshot but I hear there's a rule against that. But Jak was promoted to Captain on October 29,2019 and was promoted to General on November 18, 2020. During that time he became the primary engine that drove Hellborn forward. The man recruited, trained, and promoted like a machine without ever being asked. Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI Draconic @KSI Draconic KSI Draconic, better known as Draco, was an EXCEPTIONAL Lieutenant this year. As a Lieutenant he was completing the duties of a Captain without me, his General, ever having to even ask. Draco goes off on recruiting, promotions, security checks, gamenights, and retention while balancing a hectic family life and a full slate of college classes. I honestly don't know how he does it. As Hellborn split into CS and became Rebellion he kicked into top gear. Draco single handedly reached out to, and transferred, the majority of members of Hellborn into Rebellion. And he always asks questions and search out answers whenever he has them. Whether he's just double checking something he forgot or wants to learn something completely new, Draco has always had plenty of questions. The members like his calm and even-keeled nature and are always getting help from him in games. He's helped tons of members make millions in GTA and even joined the GSM Team so he can keep up-to-date on the GTA weekly updates. He always shares what's happening and was the first to hear about the new DLC coming out for GTA in a couple weeks. Nowadays, Draco is a TOP tier Captain but he really shone through this year as a Lieutenant and he's still kicking butt everyday! Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Zordish @KSI Zordon Zordon, Zordish, or Zordbish. Whatever you call him he's always around even he's not. Even when his Xbox got stolen he was hanging out on the Xbox App and Discord. Zordon is super fun to hangout with in parties and constantly trying to help members in various games. Even is he isn't the best at them. It is always a pleasure to chillax with Zordon. Member Gamertag: KSIxJ0KER @KSIxJ0KER One of these days I will finally convince this guy to take the "0" out his GT and make it a "O." But mild annoyances aside. Joker has a Captain in Hellborn since February. The problem is that he got stuck behind Jak Knife, who's been the most outstanding Captain in KSI this year by a country mile (in my not-at-all biased opinion lol). But don't count Joker out of the running, because he knows his stuff and is always ready to rock! Joker, as a member and officer, has recruited, trained, and promoted like a boss. He also took the lead in training his now fellow Captain, KSI Draconic. Joker has been, and still is, an invaluable member of Hellborn and Rebellion for well over a full year. Joker is smart and always on top of his work. Diligently performing his duties and engaging members on a daily basis. He's even bought other members other games as well as a headset. His kindness and generosity is well known too. He's learned so, so much as an officer and been through the muck in both irl and KSI a few times this year. Despite the setbacks, he always returned stronger than ever and pushed even more to better his squad. There are very few people like Joker in KSI and I'm extremely proud to call him my friend. Keep up the fantastic work brother. Department Member Gamertag: DrinkyourDamTea @DrinkYourDamTea Tea, or Janelle, has been phenomenal in News this year. Everytime an article needed to get written, an interview needed to be conducted, or an annual event needed to be recapped, Janelle was on top of it with no questions asked. She's recently started taking on more responsibility as an editor too. Training new writers and editing articles to make them better. And she's getting pretty good at it too. I'm looking forward to watching her continue to grow and evolve as a member of News! KSI Zordon and KSI Tea 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 3 2 5 2 2 2 2 2
KSI Bearded1 30 Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Division Leader: KSI Rogue 7 @KSI Rogue 7 Reasons: Rogue has been an inspirational leader since I joined KSI. With all the his Div Lead duties he still finds time to game with members and attend game nights and workshops to support the officers of SL. He has been there whenever I needed help and led an amazing Lead 101 class. I have learned so much about being a leader from Rogue, not just from the class, but by seeing how he conducts himself within KSI. His dedication to KSI is contagious. General: KSIxAsuma 77 @KSIxAsuma 77 Reasons: Asuma has built an awesome officer core that I am honored to be apart of. He has the most active squad in our division and his leadership is a big part of why. He has been able to find the balance of going to school and still finding time to fulfill his officer duties and work on member retention! He does a great job of ensuring everyone gets to talk during the squad meetings which helps with getting people acquainted with one another. Lieutenant: KSI xATHENAx @KSI xATHENAx Reasons: ATHENA has shown me so much of what is means to be an effective officer within KSI. She goes out of her way to ensure people who want to be trained get trained and getting anything that needs to be done gets done. She has done an excellent job growing our squad(PRESTIGE) and member retention. She loves what she does and challenges others to always do more. Her excitement for KSI duties is contagious. SSGT: KSI KHOSEC @COD3SILVER Reasons: I’ve known KHOSEC within KSI and before he was in KSI. Seeing his dedication to KSI convinced me to join because it seemed like a fun group to become apart of. Since joining I’ve been trained by him and this man runs incredibly engaging workshops, and always ensures those he plays with are having a good time. He has filled every duty he has been asked and always goes a step beyond. An excellent example of an officer.

Fennyishere 87 Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 OTY NOMS Director Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Swag has done so much for the community as director this past year its insane, he not only does the things he needs to as a Director but also goes beyond to improve the community and make sure the people in it are cared for. While in SL he was always in parties with members dealing with situations and making sure all the members are having a good time. If you sit down to hear Swag go over a workshop or even just ask him a question to help he will always have an answer. You can tell that Swag dedicates himself to maintaining everything he's over and strives to make it better then it was before, not just maintaining. I don't understand how this man has time to breathe with helping shape CS into what it is today while tackling other divisions as well. Swag has really stepped in and helped the CS transfer go over as smooth as a babies booty even though he'd probably prefer to say a pickle haha CoFo Gamertag: KSI DC 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI DC 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Even though DC isn't currently in my squad/ division i can't overlook what he has done for Elysium/Doom in the past year. Elysiums leadership was a bit shaky after the transferred but DC made sure Elysium was on the path to success and growth. He mentored me as a LT/CPT and helped to shape my mindset to look at the whole squad and analyze the bigger picture of what needs to be done. During his time in SL I can also say that DC was all over that division helping out various squads with recruiting, mentoring, etc. Because of his mentoring, it set up Elysium for success under the leadership of Weeaboo and myself. Now he has turned his focus to education however you can't overlook what he's done for SL as a CoFo this past year. Outside of SL he is also one of the most caring leaders i've seen in KSI. Homie literally switched divisions so that a division didn't close and will literally drop what he is doing to help out a member even if they aren't in the division he's in. Throughout everything that's happened this year he focused on what was best for the division and the whole of KSI and THATS why he deserves this award Department Head Gamertag: KSI Starset 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Starset 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Throughout all the bs that has went on with the awards system, starset has always stayed on top of deadlines, and has been killin it as AAP head. Before the forums update he helped pass the new award Human Billboard created (i believe) which was an awesome addition to the awards you can get. After the forums update there was a LOT of unawarded posts and Starset worked day and night to have to get up to date as quick as he can so the AAP section can go back to running smoothly. Through everything that has happened starset has stayed resilient and not let himself get overwhelmed.

Chief Operating Officer VENM VII 571 Posted December 9, 2020 Chief Operating Officer Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Category: Department Head Gamertag: KSI Starset 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Starset 7 Reasons they deserve this award: I’ve been around AAP for a hot minute seen lots of phenomenal heads such as Riiot and Airborne and now Starset. Starset is that type of leader that pushes you to better yourself will give opportunities to progress in the department time after time even though I turn it down lol. But throughout the year AAP is and has been that department that shined like a diamond consistently and he is responsible for this but as well as the staff and when the awards was broken he was still giving the staff motivation to remain patient cause we all knew the system would be back up and it was lol and he and the cohead zoomed through it all to get everyone awarded within 24 hours all in all he might be a TTFB but he’s our TTFB Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI xKing 77 Forums Account Link / @ @KSI xKing 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Often times we are presented with challenges that may appear daunting at first and often seem hopeless at times but it takes strength to persevere and throughout this year and that is what King has done this year and the years before and will do in the years to come he has this aura to him I’ve told him many times it’s the Midas Touch everything he has been involved in directly goes from fools gold to the highest grade you can get lol and when he got the CEO promotion I knew everything was gonna be alright and it has been phenomenal ever since the community is growing the members are happy it’s like KSI is turning into one big happy family again a lot of people had their hand in it but honestly the biggest hand is Kings Category Captain Gamertag KSI Blitz11 Account @KSI Blitz11 Reasoning Often times soft spoken but the definition of Captain or Capatain of The Year when he was initially rerecruited he was unsure of becoming an officer but when the time was right he stepped up and it was definitely at the perfect moment climbing the ranks making his voice being heard he was running his squad as a LT but he shined as Captain constantly working his ass off to make sure Elysium stayed afloat constantly getting with the members helping the officers just essentially being the true leader of that squad and it was that hard work that paid off that got him his general promotion Blitz has what you call Grit. Category Lieutenant Gamertag KSI MrsBlitz Account @KSI MRSBLITZ Reasoning The hardest working LT in the game is a title I used to describe this nominee never turned down a member in need whether it was KSI Advice or Real Life advice she made the time for anybody no matter the time each task that was designated to her she accomplished no questions asked MrsBlitz is that kind of officer that you only see once in a blue moon her dedication and respect for the rank and the members alike is something that is admirable.

KSI HARLEY 7 98 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Category: Senior Director Gamertag: KSI TexAngel 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI TexAngel 77 Reasons they deserve this award: TexAngel most definitely deserves this award, because she came to WD to try and help us save our division in a time of crisis. She didn’t have to do this she chose to. When she came to WD I was a very young very green cofounder. I told her in our first meeting that I was just there and because I was new I didn’t feel like I had much of a voice. She very politely made it clear that I most definitely did have a voice. She has made it known to me multiple times that once I found my voice I haven’t shut up. She has also taught me more about being a cofounder and a better leader than I ever thought I could be. I have earned her respect as a leader and she truly makes me proud to part of KSI every day. I know that when she says she will get this division across the finish line with our support I truly believe that she will. She is truly a great person and leader that everyone can learn from. She wears a lot of different hats and takes every one of them seriously, and she wears each one with pride. So thank you for everything you have taught and will teach me Tex, I follow you with pride. Category:Cofounder Gamertag:KSI DC 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI DC 7 Reasons they deserve this award: DC deserves this award because he chose to come and help rebuild WD. He came over here help show WD what they were made of. He is passionate about what he does in KSI. He’s a true leader that an abundance of people including myself look up to. He’s a cofounder a teacher a mentor who wants the future of KSI to be bigger and brighter and better than ever. I as well as many of the current leaders in KSI have learned a lot from DC, and I’m sure we will continue to learn from him as the HEAD OF EDUCATION. Category:General Gamertag: KSI Boootz Forums Account Link / @Boootz Reasons they deserve this award: Boootz deserves this award because she’s a great general and a great leader. She wears several hats and has the respect of her squad as well as the Web Ops Department and the Education department too. She’s knows what needs to be done to run a successful squad and she proves it every day. She has goals set for her squad and herself and I fully believe she’ll attain them. From splitting her squad to becoming a cofounder and higher to start. Thank you Boootz for all your hard work and help in turning this division around and helping us prosper. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSIxSWAG Forums Account Link / @KSIxSWAG Reasons they deserve this award: SWAG has been working really hard every since I have known him he has been striving to do his best and to learn he’s always asking questions and always makes he does things right. He has earned the respect of his squad and officers and strives to make himself a better leader every day. Category:Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI BLITZ11 Forums Account Link / @KSI Blitz11 Reasons they deserve this award: He’s been doing a great job as long as I have known him working his way up through the ranks to actually being a CPT now but he’s was a very strong LT. He made it over a couple of hurdles to be where he is. As a former Gen he kn the ins and outs of running a squad and does everything he can to help his Gen run a successful squad. Category: SGT Gamertag: KSI Tripped Forums Account Link / @KSI Tripped Reasons they deserve this award: Tripped has really stepped up in the past couple of months he’s brought in 5 recruits in the past couple of weeks and was recently promoted to SSGT. He wants to learn as much as he can about being a good officer and an even better leader. He’s excited to be an officer and looking forward to how far he can go. I’m excited about his future in KSI. Category: Member Gamertag:KSI xSpartan Forums Account Link / @SPARTAN MAN1911 Reasons they deserve this award: Spartan is one of the best people I know. He’s fun, he’s funny, he’s got an amazing laugh. He always in every meeting he can get to. He’s always got his members back. He wants nothing more than to make people happy. It would mean the absolute world to him and his Mom and Dad, who take care of him. They would be so very proud of him as would his squad and his division.

KSIxMitsuki 4 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 General: @KSI Huntartt Reason: I’ve been in KSI for around 5 months now and met a lot of KSI members and one of the many amazing people that stood out to me was huntartt, she’s one of the nicest and most kindhearted person I’ve ever met. She is always checking up on people and making sure there doing okay, always lending out a helping hand to anyone in need as well. she is an awesome person to game with or even just sit in party chat with, always a fun time. But apart of all that she’s also willing to take charge where its needed, one of the things that stands out to me most is that she’s not just a leader she’s a good role model too, instead of telling people to go do stuff shell go out with them and help them do it too. LT: @KSI xATHENAx Reason: Ever since Athena joined our squad she’s been working her butt off and helping things get changed for the better, since her arrival our squad grew massively in members. Her game nights are always consistent with being fun and having a crowd. She’s always an outgoing person as well doing things that need to be done rather waiting around for someone else to do it, she’s also another person who’s always asking everyone how they are and making sure there good, making KSI feel more like a family then it is a gaming community, a few examples of this are when she’s not playing the same games as you shell hop into the party’s just to say hi and how you’re doing, she’s always the first person to introduce herself to anyone new or even if they’ve just never met before, she's climbing the ranks working her way up super fast and I believe she will continue to get higher as time goes on.

KSI Barb 7 109 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Senior Leader: KSI TexAngel 7@KSI TexAngel 77 Tex has been crucial to the work we are doing to bring ES back from the brink. She made the hard decisions and constantly encouraging us to communicate and be the leaders she knew we could be. When we messed up she would admonish and correct us but always with the intent to make us better leaders. She set the Division up to succeed, because it was more important that we were on the right path than we had symptoms of being on the right path. So the growth was slow and steady but it came because of her leadership as director and senior director over ES Division Leader: KSI Shadow007@KSI Shadow007 Shadow is a quiet leader, who will lay down the law when necessary, and listens to the other leaders in the div. He was instrumental in melding leaders from 3 divisions together to help form "the New ES". He lets the leaders run with their strengths and also encourages them to step out in areas they are not comfortable in. He has on more than one occasion call me out as his "memory" in div leaders meetings. That no only build me up in my own eyes but also gave me a good rep among other leaders. To me that is one of the most important thing a leader does is bolster the confidence of those around them. Co-Founder: KSI Death 77@KSI DEATH 77 DEATH never let our division forget how important it is to recruit, recruit, recruit. It's been a long haul to change our wishy washy attitude about recruiting to where, now, every one in ES knows this is important to whatever goals we have. I am not sure we would have gotten here without him constantly pushing it at 7s meetings and gens meetings. We might have gotten there eventually but his presence never let us forget it and it is one of the reasons ES has has the growth it now enjoys. General: Captain: KSI Nightgunner@KSI NightGunner For a guy who didn't want t o be an officer again, Nightgunner has shown himself to be a consistent officer presence in his squad. He supports his Gen, knows his members and can tell me anything I want to know about the squad. He has a no nonsense attitude that his squad members and officers respect him for. CPL DemonicDragon00@DemonicDragon00 IN the past year demonic has been deployed to both South Korea and now Germany, but he has never failed to get with members of the community and hang out. He has been one of the most consistent members playing and communicating with the division.

He's been there every step of the way, helping guide the 7 and officer staff in all the squads to pure success. King has been a solid rock foundation as DM's acting Director, pushing through for us and being there whenever needed. He answers within minutes and helps out with anything. It's refreshing for all of us in DM to finally have contact with upper leadership in KSI, and DM is really lucky to have a hard worker like King with us. He not only is helping and making things great again in DM, but helping KSI out as a whole. This member is outstanding, through and through. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DntAsk 7 Forums Account Link: @KSI DntAsk 7 Reasons they deserve this award: DntAsk, better known as Pam to most, has been one of the best leaders I've ever had the pleasure in working with during my entire time here in KSI. When so many other people would have just given up, she stood her ground and fought through a very tough time here in DM, and shined like a true champion through it. Her in real life experience with counseling helps us all out in DM, and in KSI too. Everyone in KSI knows who DntAsk is. From her ways of doing member retention and helping members out in and out of KSI situations, her mere presence is so important to DM. She is currently holding up a squad with limited officers and just doing amazing with it. She is the rock in DM that likes to try to remain invisible, but members know how important and wonderful she truly is. DM wouldn't be where it's at right now if not for this incredible, selfless woman with a pure heart of gold. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Lilith 7 Forums Account Link: @KSI Lilith 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Lilith, also known as Amanda has really done wonders for DM and especially Wrath this year. When things got tough in there and Wrath basically lost a it's officers and General, she stepped up and saved Wrath. From training up new officers, to recruiting and promoting new members, Lilith has done wonders for Wrath, which is now flourishing with an amazing well trained General, Thanks to her. Lilith has a great presence throughout all of DM, as many people flock to her and enjoy playing and hanging out in parties with her. She is an amazing asset now to the 7 staff and DM overall. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI T StackG Forums Account Link: @KSI T StackG Reasons they deserve this award: Stack is one of the most solid Captains DM has seen in quite some time. He is/was literally the backbone of Wrath. He is an extremely hard worker and cares about the members very much so. Stack recruits, trains and promotes members daily. He is currently doing amazing as a new General in Wrath, which you wouldn't know if you came across him. He always is on top of everything. If someone has a question, he'll answer them within minutes. If he doesn't know the answer, he'll seek it out immediately. He's always wanting to improve and better himself. He loves learning as much KSI knowledge as he can, and uses it to help out his perspective squad on a daily basis. Stack is kind, warm and compassionate. I'm looking forward to seeing all he will do in the new year. Category: Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Ocean Power Forums Account Link: @KSI Ocean Power Reasons they deserve this award: Ocean is the epitome of what every Sergeant in KSI should be. He attends all game nights and squad meetings that he can. He has a warm heart and helps out members like an unofficial counselor within all the squads. He is basically like an officer without being an officer. He stays online with some members just to talk to them and help them through difficult times, even staying on longer than he should. Sometimes we have to remind him that his family needs his attention too. He truly cares and loves to play anything with anyone. He is Welcoming and friendly to any new member he meets. Ocean is a member that all leaders could truly learn from. Category: Member Gamertag: KSIxRoyal Forums Account Link: @KSIxRoyal Reasons they deserve this award: Royal is truly one of the most outstanding members in all of DM. He was previously an officer this past year, mainly stepping up with his busy schedule to help out his perspective squad, just because they needed it. He had to step down, but did an amazing job as an officer, and does just as an amazing job as a member. He helps people in games so much, taking hours at a time when he's available, to show newer players what to do. He is patient, kind and makes each and every member he comes across feel important. He knows at the end of the day it's just a game, and prefers to surround himself with good company, than just getting the task at hand done in any game. He's persistent and tries his hardest to help out, even in other situations that are KSI related. He is truly an amazing and awesome member that many other members flock to, because of his friendly and positive demeanor.

Squeek 7 114 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Category: Senior Director Gamertag: KSI TexAngel 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI TexAngel 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Tex has been in this community almost as long as I have however when the future looked bleak, she never left or stopped helping others to continuously build up this community even when it was only half a brick at a time. She has devoted her time and efforts into members and leaders alike and regardless of the impacts her personal life took, she never abandoned the community or members within. She worked hard with whatever tools and strength she could find to suck it up and make it work. She makes time to be around for officer or gen promotions, she games with members outside of her responsibilities and keeps the bond with them, and she is always aware of what's going on in the divisions she is over. A great leader, mentor, and member of KSI this community recognizes her as an asset and key player in the atmosphere of KSI. Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Shadow007 Forums Account Link / @KSI Shadow007 Reasons they deserve this award: Shadow is very professional however still allows his personality to show in everything that he does. The way he articulates the ideals of the community astounds me. He has mastered what most struggle with and that is knowing which role to play at what time. He is knowledgeable and can answer most of your questions before you get a chance to ask them. Shadow did a fantastic job of coming to ES with no idea of what Div Lead meant and took the bull by the horns and ran ES well. He made time to still plays with the members and be there if anyone needed a question answered when their co-founders were unavailable. You can always reach him if it is important or just to say hello. He thrives in Clan Ops and he is passionate about his roles in Web Ops. I am proud of the leader he has become and excited to see the many things he achieves on his way to the Board. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI Barb 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Barb 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Barb has been a soldier in this battle of change in KSI. In the beginning of the year, she made her way back to Gen of Succubus after dealing with many hardships that would have made anyone quit. Now, she has become our co-founder and has made the position her own. Barb took the ground running and not only implemented and enforced the changes put in place by her Div Lead, she was always available to help anyone in need and made sure they understood who was in their chain of command and how to properly handle issues accordingly. Barb has promoted squad activity, boosted the morale of those below her, and has been a helper to anyone who needed it. She has brought new ideas and ways of looking at things to the community and is the definition of a dedicated member here to serve others around her. Furthermore, she is an active Information Head and on the LLC and her only thought is how to improve KSI, make it more efficient, while still understanding that members and leaders should have fun with it.

KSI KHOSEC 42 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Rogue 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Rogue 7 Reasons: Rogue is an extremely inspirational and multi-faceted leader. No matter his position he kills it. As a Div lead Rogue has shown tremendous leadership, fortitude and the passion to teach others. He leads everyone below him, even a week old member can be impacted by this mans wisdom. I personally have learned a ton about how to be an effective leader from him. He conducts himself as a leader in everything that he does, and His passion for our community impacts everyone around him. Category: Lieutenant Gamertag: KSI xATHENAx Forums Account Link / @KSI xATHENAx Reasons: Athena is a leader that can engage anyone. She leads others to become the best leaders themselves, even if they aren't in our officer core. Whether she is out hunting for new members, retaining new members or engaging the Officer Core and 7's Staff, she continually leads and makes an impact on those around her. I am truly confident that Athena will play a large role in the future face of KSI and especially that of SL. Her determination, leadership, excitement and engagement will continue to impact our community well beyond her Lieutenant days. Category: Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Bearded1 Forums Account Link / @FearTheBeard253 Reasons: Bearded1 has shown what it means to be an amazing Sergeant and what it looks like to be the future leadership of our community.

Popular Post KSI Rogue 7 121 Posted December 14, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 KSI 2020 Of The Year Award Nominations Senior Leader (Board Of Directors, Senior Directors): Gamertag: KSI TexAngel 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI TexAngel 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Since becoming a Senior Director she has been all over the place. Voice for Clan Ops and yet still on the battlefield helping revamp and lead divisions. Taking over so many hats due to a diminished Director team and still chugging forward. The level of stress that Senior Leadership experiences can make anyone want to run the other way. Her resilience has stood still through it all. Truly one of the best Senior leaders we have. Director: Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Swag has truly excelled in his position as a Director. He has been helping SO many divisions since his promotion. He never backs down from a challenge and is always willing and wanting to meet new members and play with anyone. His fun goofy Uncle vibe makes others smile and laugh. He has made positive changes to the community due to his leadership. Without Swag’s mentorship, there would not be as many incredible leaders here in KSI. ALL HAIL THE PICKLE KING! Co-Founder: Gamertag: KSI Slick 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Slick 7 Reasons they deserve this award: 2020 has been the evolution year of KSI Slick 7. His successful progression up the ranks were a sight to see. So much unlocked potential building. I saw this “X factor” like none other in this man. Before he even made a name for himself in his squad, I had this deep pit in my stomach and I can remember vividly telling my fellow 7s, “This is the guy, this is the future leadership in KSI”. Sure enough he became a much deserved CoFounder. During his time as a CoFo, Slick has never backed down from a challenge to big or small. He is a logistical beast, on point in every situation, level-headed and extremely professional. He was acting General in Knights SL twice and each time he rebuilt and trained the officer corps, he grew the squad, keep it healthy and gave it his all. He wanted to give it one last hoorah and he generated a hell of an active and healthy squad. He is always on his tasks and is a beam of light in SL. Slick is highly respected in SL and his mentorship has built up 2 more CoFos and a General in Templar since they were CPTs and LTs. He plays with anyone and everyone, gives his super useful and wise counsel, and truly treats others as brothers and sisters. This guy can not only lead the horse to water, but he can also damn near make him drink too due to his positive and uplifting nature. From his incredible analogies that bring a comedic yet clear understanding, to his drive to better the community and create amazing leaders. I am extremely proud to have been and still be in his presence each day. The sky is the limit with this man. General: Gamertag: KSI N3WERA 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI N3WERA 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Out of every General I have experienced; being a General came naturally to N3WERA. There was NOTHING that this man didn’t do. He was always on time with Gen Check Ins, meeting notes, Omega, etc. Always training, always recruiting, and continued to build a badass and STRONG powerhouse squad. Templar needed NO micromanagement. It was a well oiled and fully running machine. N3WERA helped build one of SL’s strongest officer corps. You tell him “Hey I’d love to see 5 recruit this week” He would be like bet and he’d get his team to crank out more than you ever asked for. Templar was about 120 members strong at one point. The largest squad in 1.5 years of SL’s history. Logistically – God Tier. Potential – Unmatched. Loyal Friend – Like none other. Captain: Gamertag: KSI WuTang 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Wu Tang 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Super Captain simple as that. Even with this man’s crazy 50+ hour work schedule he did not miss a single beat. He was always learning, always training, always growing into the A-MAIZE-ING leader he is today. True definition of Time Management as well. Heavy hitter in recruiting consistently and on point with every aspect a Captain does and then some. It was a no brainer that KSI WuTang 7 (formerly known as KSI WVUA11en) would be the upcoming leadership not only in his squad but in this division as well. This guy plays with anyone and will help any member catch a WarZone win. He is always there for the members and has an eagerness to do all he can for KSI. Lieutenant: Gamertag: KSI xATHENAx Forums Account Link / @: @KSI xATHENAx Reasons they deserve this award: Throughout my time in KSI, I have seen many Lieutenants. Some have come in, done well, and gone. Some have succeeded and become Gens and 7s. But… There is no one like KSI xATHENAx. The Mega Officer. I first met Athena when she was a CPL and I talked to her about the possibility of changing her name to reflect KSI. With her sort of on the fence about it, I challenged her to a night of 1v1 Gunfight to claim a $10 gift card for a name change. This is where I first experienced her positive and friendly demeanor. Even though it was close, she whooped my butt and claimed the name change. From that moment on, I encouraged her about possibly becoming an officer one day. Even though she was hesitant at first, eventually her colors and light started to shine as a SGT and she became an officer shortly afterward. As a lieutenant there was nothing that she could not do. Prestige was okay but just plateauing. Just kind of there. Not much really happening but not dead, just more or less stagnant and continuing. Now enters Athena. Suddenly this young woman revitalizes the squad in every area. No one matches her member retention, party-busting gamenights sometimes twice in a day with new members. She is welcoming to every member and her name has definitely been heard throughout the other divisions. Members from all over have gamed with her or been a part of her Gunfight gamenights. Everyone always has a great time, and they feel included. She is the squad’s head recruiter meaning she can knock out weekly squad goals herself alone not including helping others learn to do recruiting. Because of her influence, she is the face of Prestige. With that, a few incredible individuals have been directly mentored by her. KSI KHOSEC, KSI Bearded1, KSI Shrimp not including the longest potential officer list I have seen in forever. She has successfully trained many officers and even officers in other squads during her workshops. Honestly, she not only revitalized her squad but the division as a whole. She is a sponge for more knowledge, she consistently reaches out to me and the other leaders for growth advice and is continuously trying to learn as much as she can to become a good, fair, and successful leader in KSI. She attended my LEAD101s and her responses were spot on. The notes she was taking proves the incredible student she is. Her communication amongst fellow officers is above any other LT. She became a part of the Leadership Council and is involved in so much. To put it plainly, KSI xATHENAx was CoFounder-capable as an LT. I know that is a huge stretch, but it is beyond truth. I have seen her more successful as an officer and LT when it comes to squad engagement, upholding example leadership, member retention, training, learning, squad management, officer delegation, event hosting etc then most Generals and even 7s Staff I have encountered in 2020. If she continues down this path she is on, I only imagine the wonders that she will create. She had far outreached the expectations, responsibilities, and duties as a LT 100 times over. As I stated in the beginning, there are many amazing Lieutenants in KSI and many are deserving of recognition for their various achievements. But when I think of Lieutenant of the YEAR for 2020, her name resounds 1 million miles left, right, up, down, and everywhere in between. Her achievements and work ethic speak volumes about her leadership and time as a LT but there is one more I want to point out. She is a great friend to all. She is there for everyone. In good times and in bad she can be called upon. She is an example of what it means to be a family in KSI. I could not be prouder of her and foresee greatness surrounding her name. SSGT: Gamertag: KSI KHOSEC Forums Account Link / @: @COD3SILVER Reasons they deserve this award: KSI KHOSEC is part of the next generation of leadership. He has a positive and friendly attitude, he trains others as if he has been doing it for years and makes workshops personable. Recruited and mentored by KSI xATHENAx, so the quality of this man is above reproof. As a SSGT he was tackling any challenge that came his way. He is always down to learn more and even asks the hard questions that most others would miss. I can’t wait to see his leadership dynamic continue. SGT: Gamertag: KSI Sasuke08 Forums Account Link / @: @Sasuke08 Reasons they deserve this award: KSI Sasuke08 is one of the most well rounded and knowledgeable SGTs I know. From his officer experience to his continual aide to almost anyone, he is the SGT Of The Year for 2020. Due to his expertise and dedication to keep training others, he is the SL Training Officer for the division. He is always around and even though he has a 13-hour time difference since he is stationed in Japan, you can still see him partaking in so much with all the members. He is a great trainer, funny, welcoming, and friendly to all. You see him in almost every major gamenight across the division and is out there most of the time doing better member retention than officers by 10 fold. No matter what his circumstances are, he still remains a strong SGT in SL. He also was awarded SL Hall of Fame this year. That alone should tell you his dedication to the community, his knowledge and experience, and his abilities. Department Head: Gamertag: KSI Starset 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Starset 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Starset has been an amazing Department Head in AAP. He is accepting of everyone, know his way around everything and due to his overall experience as a Forums Mod, former CoFounder and a Department Head, he has to be one of the most well rounded heads currently. He is always open to suggestions and helps a lot with different questions. Even when AAP was down, he was doing all he could to get a fix and push AAP to the next level. I’m excited to see what plans are in store for AAP. Department Member: Gamertag: Loyalty Paradox Forums Account Link / @: @Loyalty Paradox Reasons they deserve this award: This man right here is ON POINT. He constantly encourages AAP involvement amongst the staff and he reaches out to members to help them obtain new awards. He is pushing announcements throughout the division, answers any questions about the Department and has been great at driving conversation and communication in AAP. Most recently became a Co-Head for his passion and dedication to the department. Forums Staff (Mods, Senior Mods, Admins): Gamertag: KSI DropShot 7 Forums Account Link / @: @Mr. DropShot Reasons they deserve this award: Extremely helpful anytime I've ever needed anything Forums based. From access requests, to profile and account issues, helping me create my forums group etc. He is always there and quite punctual too. Quick to respond and handle topics very efficiently. Thank you to all other Senior Leaders, 7s, Generals, Officers, Web Ops and Dept Ops staff. Each one of you continue to pave the way for the future of KSI.
