  2. Name: (Member-/-Squad-/-Division of the person you are nominating) KSI hatter87 Co Founder WI Link to Forums Account: http://www.ksiforums.org/user/13216-ksi-hatter87/ Award-/-Achievement: (The award you are nominating this person for) Die Hard and Mad Max Reason-/-Evidence: (Please give reasons to why this person is deserving of the award you are nominating them for) Since both are kinda the same thing I am going to just start by saying I have been around Shay (Hatter) since crysis she has progressed into a mad man both with squad level stuff and through becoming a co founder she has had to deal with people becoming power hungry and testing her patience she has lost her cool a couple of times but she always does it with a smile on her face when we as her officers saw no point in trying she kept us going but scared us with how mad she looked and acted she poured her heart into this squad we have now and I can see she was the best leader we had to keep us going when she kept going through the fire.

  4. I know the struggle lol I'm waiting to do much the same. LOL. So what we need here for your commited nomination is a witness to atest to a year of gold with a KSI Gamer Tag. The head hunters and sniper nomination can go hand in hand if it is the same team, if you are the team captain we need the leaders over seeing the team to verify your claims if the head hunters team is not a snipers based team we will need individual verification. So with that go! And spread the word lol. Good luck! [emoji14]

  5. Well I first got to know this guy when I was getting my squad Paradox on the forums and well this guy was on it quickly to help my members get back into forums accounts and getting them to where they need to be! As well he has joined Paradox and has done nothing but help as much as he can from helping with notes, name changes, workshops, helping people with getting live, game nights, solving of problems, and of course with the lovely forums, and to be honest so much more! Doc has been an amazing friend and an amazing mentor to myself and many others not just in Immortal Outlaws!(: Doc does nothing but help help and help and anyone who can do all that and have such a calm and level head, and keep trying to do more I honestly know Doctor deserves this award keep it up Doc! We all love you!! Love Always, #TeamNoShame

  6. I give my FULL witness of both awards to the nominated individual...a lot...like, REALLY a lot. I say this because I was literally recruited into KSI little over a week before hatter was recruited in, which is nearly "duo" years ago (see what I did there?) coming February, and time and time and time AND time again I have had dealings with hatter since we first met, even up until my last days of being her boss before I stepped down. First and foremost I'll start with an analogy before going into detail on how it will pertain to my descriptive explanation of my witness proposal. The norm of humans is to reside within an untouched picture or painting canvas. With this, these individuals are to compose a product within their own sanctity. When the product is done, it's usually within the same borders of the canvas. When one goes outside of the canvas, these kind of people are classified as either geniuses, bright and gifted, insane, rebels, or a combination of either of these few listed attributes. Of course any of it is up for constructive argument and debate but to put it, while seeing it, simply is that this is the general description. Hatter lies beyond the canvas borders and she does it flawlessly. Now back to subject at hand. To this day, since we both were first recruited into KSI, I do not see much of hatter as being insane or anything related to insane, just has a tough character attached to herself. Of course I can see how some people can look at her character differently than I do but just remember, we are all different and unique in our own way. Hatter has hers and it is definitely something to be admirably feared AND feared admirably. While I may have gone up the ranks faster than she because of my more calm and understanding character, this still posed situations and opportunities to lookout and teach those to be more tolerable people. Hatter was one of those people. To be honest, I have had more encounters with her that involved a problem or multiple problems than I can recall. But with all of those problems, WE were able to work it out, learn from it, and then use that knowledge to teach others from making the same mistake(s). The tough mind and bold personality of hers is definitely a double-edged sword. While it may rub things the wrong way (and it has very much at times), it also has the greatest potential to present oneself as a great teacher and leader (and it has shown itself very, very, VERY much all most all the time). And I can honestly say that appointing her to be a leader, especially a 7, was one of the best things I could have done to have by my side as a leader, a good friend, and most of all, someone I can call my sister (though we are not related by blood, just the level of respect and care I have for her). She’s definitely the type of person one should keep an eye on so she doesn’t cause any trouble but more carefully keep and hold onto in order to help each other make a beautiful "masterpiece.†I hope my explanation through a simplified version of the Iceberg Theory was not too confusing but I prefer to explain myself in a much more deeper understanding than the norm. Through this is the true understanding of walking through life where the earth beneath one’s feet is soft. With much warm regards, Chad M. KSI 30thMidget

  7. Doc is the epitome of what it means to be a leader he is knowledgeable, very fair tempered and all most always around when u need him, his advice is unmatched and welcomed by all members including some very high ranking members. I have already had lots of discussions with him on many subjects, I find his advice invaluable.Doc works around the clock to make sure people are happy and informed, I can't think of anyone more deserving than him. ..........go get em Doc !

  8. Hatter DEFINITELY deserves this award. Without a doubt. Even when her life is busy as heck, she still takes the time to make sure her squad (and division) is doing ok and functioning like it should. Whether it's counseling, reprimanding a rogue member, or just spending time with us, she does it. Since Abaddon's split from Crysis, Hatter has had to deal with a LOT of crap coming from a lot of different directions. We've lost quite a few members since the split and some of them have hung around and tried to make Hatter (and the officer's) life hell. Building a squad from bare bones isn't the easiest task. She's somebow managed to hang in their AND bring Abaddon to a better place. Hatter's transition from General to CoFounder has been a very unique one. As a relatively small squad, it's taken a tremendous amount of initiative and work from the officers, led by Hatter, to shape Abaddon into what it is today. Now that she's a CoFounder, we don't see her much anymore on the gaming side of things. She's always there though. To counsel and answer questions if we need it. It's been really encouraging to see how fully she supports our new General and how she's handed over the reigns of Abaddon. In conclusion, l'll say this. I know for a fact that Abaddon wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for her efforts and her dedication.

  9. I think hatter deserves this award very much, she gotten insane in so many issues we have had in crysis and WI, but she always returns happy and cantstay mad forever from the start when she was captain and now to Cofounder, she has put more then anyone could ask for in helping in the sqaud and lots of times I would have thought she would have given up but she didn't she fought through the hard times of members harassing others and more even times when she lost her sanity she still kept going before crysis split and still now after crysis and formed abaddon she has taken care of all the issues their as well and she still didn't give up, she is one tough cookie and I'm happy to still have her in Wicked Intent from all that has happened

  11. I'd like to witness for Master Recruiter, helping hand, and OS LVL 2. Granted this has only been open for 3 days, I'm pretty surprised this hasn't flooded up. Please allow me to fill in some gaps and explain why this individual is worthy of OS lvl 2. KSI Azrael 7 was recruited back September of 2011. To not make this into a mirror KSI History thread for Az, I'll focus more on 2014. Should the staff desire more information on Az's cumulative accomplishments please feel free to ask. I'll start with OS lvl 2 statement... As several people have mentioned, Azrael was once Division Leader of Forced Induction. What many don't recall or weren't around for, Az was also among the founding members of this division as well. Coming from Demise DL, when the division split he was brought over along with KSI Veilsix 7 to build up this solid division. Due to family issues and moving cross country, KSI Veilsix 7 ended up leaving KSI which left Az to fill in the gap as the only 7 in a fresh new division right off of a split. Talk about taking on a challenge, this guy was a fairly new 7 as is and then to take on running a division just 2-3 months later is tough....real tough. Reaching the highest rank one can achieve within a division, Az stepped away from KSI for a much needed break, a vacation we could all use at some point. When Az returned, he was like the old him on crack. The dude was rejuvenated with a serious motivation to prove himself once again. It started with him just wanting to come and help out in Velocity. He trained others how the leadership roles vary from rank to rank but explained how leadership in general has an underlying constant - taking care of your people. Regardless of the rank, Az makes himself available to any and all members (particularly on XBL) to answer questions, be their guide, knock out COD elite wars and any issues there may be. But Az wasn't satisfied with just sitting back and pitching in here and there. Upon being placed into Lotus, a failing squad at the time, by divisional leadership, He kicked it into overdrive by showing FI members how the flub Poop is done around here. Dude busted his ass to bring Lotus FI from 8 no Poop members to 80+, approaching a split in less than 2 months, 60 of which he personally recruited and 4 of which are officers right now (KSINBPxMOVIE, KSI Vonix, KSI Plooger, and I just don't have the time to find the other dude sry). As he was doing all this, he was showing others how the Poop is done and having others recruit as well. He rolled up his sleeves and took the hands on approach to really cultivate this squad into a solid cornerstone of Forced Induction. As a Co-Founder again in FI, he hasn't lost a bit of that motivation and momentum that got him there for the second time. Mind you, this is a feat in itself - to go from division leader and redo everything to claim the Cofo title again. It's a taxing experience to redo all that made him division leader in the first place. He's the 7 you don't have to worry about. Put him in place and he's on autopilot. Everything you expect a 7 to maintain, he does. He goes to squad meetings still. He's currently mentoring 3 generals across 2 divisions among other members. He's still an active part of FI's "Welcoming Committee" which gets a hold of new members and recruits to give more information about KSI to, game with, and put them into contact with more FI folks and KSI departments. When needed or requested, he attends the weekly division leader meetings in place of KSI Shinobi 7 ( Division Leader, FI) and/or KSI Sm0oth 7 (Founder, FI). Please note, for those of you unaware of this, only the senior most ranked 7 must attend the division leader meetings, however, should circumstances arise, they are to designate someone to attend in their absence. This is nothing new to Azrael, and he's more than capable of delivering the accurate information the Directors and Seniors require on demand at a moments notice. His delivery isn't only because he's experienced, but because he is intertwined with much of what is going on in FI and is THERE when things happen, game nights are hosted, meetings are taking place, promotions occur. He's THERE during the FI divisional meeting where FI 7s and Gens and officers get together and talk about what's going on and what needs to happen (and how to take over the world #pinkyandthebrain). In the spirit of giving back, rewarding, and keeping things interesting, Azrael has dropped over $100 out of pocket for name changes to deserving individuals via tournaments and some on the spot for those looking to commit and move up ranks under his tutelage. However, counting for his entire time in KSI, I can estimate personally he's come up off of about ~$300 since 2011 in MSP cards for others (~$100 in 2014 alone). The cofo rank can be particularly murky rank in regards to what needs to be done on a regular basis (for those not properly trained). However, for upper leadership, we all recognize how crucial it is to have a cofo locked on as well as ranks below them. That's just what this guy is, once again. Azrael's drive has inspired those around him to pick up the pace and actively contribute as well. I can't tell you how vital it is to have 7s do Poop other than manage and he's doing just that. Under his leadership, others have also received recognition in the form of complimentary comments in posts, pm's, and some even via forum awards. Az's leadership style of "do as I do" has spread like wildfire across the division and many have taken it to heart. I guess you can consider this a positive collateral effect of leading by doing, or indirect mentorship? Idk... however you want to put this into context, it's working and working well. So what do we have here? A highly active KSI veteran who has made waves before, came back, and is doing it all over again. Pulling bills out of his pocket to facilitate the growing numbers of name changes which ultimately adds competitiveness to officer ranks and other leadership positions. However, the most invaluable commodity is not money or a few kind words here or there. It's one's time. You can't take back time you've devoted to something or someone. You can't get reimbursed for it. Once spent, it's gone. And he's put in some serious quality time with the new FI and everyone is reaping the benefits of his activity. There's much more cumulatively this member has done over the course of almost 4 years of KSI service as I've pointed out. However, this information is what I have amassed over 2014. I'm still surprised he doesn't have this already from anything he's done in previous years. Granted the above should be sufficient statement for all three awards, I'd like to break down witness testimony to ensure these are divided and accounted for properly. Master Recruiter: - I can personally attest to this one without a doubt. Him and I both along with a core group of others banded together to recruit our asses off to recover from FI's early hit of mass fluff removal. Back in late 2012/early 2013 FI cut ties to all fluff. Literally all of it. We picked up on it via meeting attendance & squad tag inactivity and decided to send notices then remove. In that time, even with replacing members who have come and gone, he's easily recruited and assisted in well over 100 recruits. I've been there for the biggest portion of his recruits during this time just as he was usually present during mine. Consider it a dynamic duo of recruiting at the time. If anyone remembers KSI McClaytone (no longer in KSI) who was easily one of the most prominent recruiters this community has had in recent years, you'd understand just how many recruits we mustered together as a team. Helping Hand: - There's not much to say for this one unfortunately. KSI Oraclex7 created was is known as "Coporal's Showdown" and we've continued the tradition since its inception. Az has personally contributed and hosted many of these events himself. As mentioned earlier, he's also given some name changes out for those he believed would remain committed and continue up the ranks. These conversations are always fun to be part of. The appreciation members have for receiving something like this never gets old to see. It's fulfilling in its own right. *Side note, Az has contributed ~$200 to members out of pocket before his hiatus and ~$100 since he's been a Cofo. For those of you who recall his financial struggle early 2014, he's managed to overcome that obstacle in life and still find away to make this happen for FI members. Yeh... he's a lifer and will contribute as long as he can. That concludes my witness statement. Once again, should the AAP staff desire any additional information regarding this post, please let me know. Cheers
