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. This man is more than deserving to receive this award. #BBO4Lyfe Director: Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Words cannot even explain how much Swag is deserving of this award.

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.

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.

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 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.

Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI DC 77 Forums Account Link / @KSI DC 77 The Man, The Myth and the Legend. I’d put DC up against anyone in this community. DC had recruited me March 16th and in this short time of knowing him nothing but greatness has been shown. DC trained myself and many other officers throughout CS creating a powerhouse of recruiters in the division. He played a huge role in the squad split of doom. He recruited promoted and trained people beyond the point of burnout, and still kept going. He embodies the meaning of the S in KSI. Without DCs strength and perseverance through rough times I can 1000% say CS would not have some of the standards and staff in place it does. DC is one of the most humble and generous people I’ve met in KSI, I wouldn’t be in the position I am today without him. The man literally stepped down to give me a chance at LT. And thats only a few of the many things he’s done in the community. In conclusion, DC is THE GOAT. Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons they deserve this award:KSI Uppish 7 has always helped me with any issue that has come my way. He stays active with his members despite how busy he is and is always fun to be around. There have been a few times where I’ve just spoken with him about things going on in real life and he was always there to listen. He’s helped me with multiple situations whether it was KSI-related or not. There are a few reasons why Uppish deserves the award but to give a few ones that stick out to me. We can go to any event and I promise you will see Uppish’s name 10,000 times, Uppish is constantly pushing out the forum's challenge and hyping up the events every chance he could. Uppish plays a big part in why people in CS are as active as they are, whether it’s party hopping between every squad, showing up to officer and squad meetings, or even hosting game nights now and again. When you think of CS he’s one of the first people that comes to mind, he’s joyful while being a doody head at the same time. He’s there when you need him and is always on top of his game. And he does all this while working 12 hour shifts on the regular, “breaks are for sissy’s” is the man's motto. His work ethic shines in CS and there isn’t a reason he doesn’t deserve this. Uppish is extremely hands-on since he’s been DivLead with Calamity and every other squad here,while still managing the Division as a whole.. He’s always worked great with the officers in CS and he’s constantly learning new things and thinking of new ways to better the KSI experience for every member, officer and 7 here. Pushing us all to become better officers and to perfect our craft. His goofiness and drive haven’t changed much since he’s taken on his new role, he’s still jumping in parties, helping people with one on ones regardless of whether it’s training or just some advice. Overall Uppish is just the GOAT. Division Creator Divisional Leader OTM x2 Co-Founder OTM x2 General OTY Captain OTM Captain OTM Divisional x2 OS Level 1&2 Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI Grogu 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Grogu 7 Reasons they deserve this award:KSI Grogu 7 is easily one of the greats when it comes to the leaders in CS. He has helped guide me through many tough times whether it was keeping my head on straight while dealing with a struggling squad or even just day to day struggles of being an officer. He has played a major role in bringing calamity out of multiple rough patches. He has kept our officer core motivated even when it seems impossible and is extremely active in our day-to-day activities. He’s always joining random parties or helping organize officer goals for the week as well as delegation for a day to day process.He helps keep us in check when we need it while also building us up every chance he gets. Grogu is in it for the pure growth and betterment of this community. He is one of the most understanding people in KSI I’ve met. The man knows what he’s doing and his opinion on any matter is extremely valued by myself and many others. If he says he’s got you, he’s got you. He’s never one to disappoint and is without a doubt in the top tier amongst the KSI divisional 7s staff, Grogu makes everything his own and is extremely meticulous and wise while completing tasks or making decisions. He leaves his mark wherever he goes. Grogu was always there to help even when he was the Gen in Wrath, with advice or even just to chill out and think some things over. Since taking on CoFo he’s been one of the main leaders I go to and trust with anything. During my training as acting Gen Grogu helped guide me in the right direction by showing me how to set proper goals in place on a squad-based level, as well as communicating with my squad professionally while keeping it friendly. There isn’t a single reason he doesn’t deserve this award and I’m sure many others would agree. Co-Founder OTM x2 CS DHoF General DOTM General OTM OS Level 1 Helping Hand Trainer General Gamertag: KSI MercX Forums Account Link / @KSI MercX Since MercX has taken on the role of general he has played a huge role in squad to squad integration throughout the division, wether it’s training, gamenights or even just party hopping, MercX is there for it all. One of the best things about MercX that makes him a great leader is he keeps it 100% honest with his people. He stays true to the Knowledge Strength and Integrity name, He can handle anything on a squad level with ease and I know he’ll make a great CoFo soon. He is dedicated to his members and doesn’t let anything get in the way of his goal and has shown that time and time again this year. There isn’t a single reason this goofy redneck doesn’t deserve this award. General OTM General DOTM x2 OS Level 1 Novice Recruiter Pro Recruiter Captain Gamertag: KSI T StackG Forums Account Link / @KSI T StackG It’s hard to find a person in CS who doesn’t know who this man is. KSI T StackG is a huge asset to CS when it comes to retention, this man gets around like a fat kid to a ice cream truck! Stack has some of the best social skills in this community with out a doubt, the only man I know who can talk to a wall and somehow it’ll talk back. He’s played a huge role in the success of Wrath, as he’s huge on statistics and activity. I can speak on multiple times where he’s been party hopping while doing his document based work. He’s also great at training, he’s a very relatable teacher and puts things into perspective from a different stand point. I can 10000% say CS wouldn’t be nearly as fun without Stack. Keep it up brotha, the sky’s the limit! Member Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @KSI Swag 77 Mr.ClanOps himself, Swag has played a huge role in bringing me up along side DC. He’s been there when I was going through my worst and my best in clan ops this year, he’s always kept it 100% honest with me and never let rank get in the way. He talks to me as a person rather than a Captain and I appreciate that more than he could know. He’s constantly party hopping through the community and always fun to be around. He’s willing to teach and train anyone that comes his way, I came to him wanting to learn more about his rank and what it means to be COS and he was willing to take time away from his day to give me the run down on it even though I’m years away from ever getting there. He truly wants the best for this community and shows that day after day. It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t know who the man is, and it’s always for his insane ability in clan ops. Swag is, and always will be one of the greatest leaders clan ops could have. Thank you, not only for what you have done for me this year, but what you have done for the community as a whole.

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Swag 77 Link to forums account - @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - This dude is unbreakable! I cannot think of anyone more deserving of this award for March. Dude dealt with DM closing while still being an acting director, acting Div Leader, and an active Co-Founder in CS. He has had to handle more drama and bull Poop than anyone else because of his rank in the community, and he does so while smiling and laughing. He is always playing with members regardless of rank. He probably hangs out with at least 50 members a day. He is always party hopping and getting to know the members. The only time he is not party hopping is when he is in a meeting, and odds are he is in a meeting on discord and still in a party with members on xbox. It doesn't matter if he is watching tv or youtube he will still get on to talk to the members that want/need to talk to him. Dude is amazing and sets a solid foundation of what leadership is in this community. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Link to forums account - Reasoning why they deserve this - Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Harley 7 Link to forums account - @KSI HARLEY 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Harley is a fantastic leader. She has worked extremely hard to get WD back as strong as ever. Anarchy was able to split under her leadership and she has brought up two amazing co-founders and two generals. This month was a milestone and finally proved that WD is finally on the right track after all the crap that happened back in August of last year. She is always available for her members, and she is always hearing them out to make changes to benefit the squads and the division as a whole. She cares about her members and is always trying to teach them the proper foundation as well as continuously learning to make sure that she can provide the best experience for her members. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - He has made huge improvements as a Co-Founder in this last month. He has always done a great job at making sure things are going great in Rebellion. He is has consistently shown that he is starting to have a divisional level thinking and has opened his mindset. He is willing to learn and spread the knowledge to the members. He is now starting to be open to change, even if he might not agree with it. He has done a great job overseeing CS and now has the responsibility of not only guiding Rebellion but also Wrath. He is doing a fantastic job as a leader and he is doing a great job at holding his squads accountable and mentoring the officers within the squads all while doing a fantastic job at member retention. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Fenny Link to forums account - @Fennyishere Reasoning why the deserve this - Fenny is an amazing general. She has taken Doom and literally transformed it. She had to basically fire her entire officer staff and by the beginning of this month it was barebones. 2 captains (one on military LOA) 1 LT (who was demoted), and 2 SSGT (both left the community). She now has 2 CPTs (one still on military LOA), 3 LTs, and 4 SSGTs with about 7 potential officers. She is always working her ass off when it comes to getting things done in her squad. Even if she is not online, she is constantly communicating on discord. She sets goals for officers that she wishes for them to achieve. She is an amazing trainer and has trained up a fantastic officer corps that seems unstoppable. The squad has also grown about 20 members since the start of this month. She has given the squad a direction of growth and has raised the spirits and morale of all members within her squad. She has made moves that have completely transformed this squad and has strengthened the squad/division as a whole because of her decisions. She is never afraid to ask for advice and considers all of her officers opinions before making a decision; this characteristic of hers has strengthened the officer corps because the officers feel valued and feel like they are able to help make decisions. All of the members know and respect her. She is an absolutely amazing general that has got her squad in the right direction, which if things continue the way they are she will lead the squad to a split within no time (if this where to happen it would be the 2nd split to happen since I split Imperial on 12/10/2019). Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iChief Link to forums account - @Chieffy Reasoning why they deserve this - Chief is an amazing captain. He is always thinking ahead. He has plans for the squad and has no problem sharing his opinions to help the squad move forward. He does a fantastic job at member retention, and he is an excellent squad meeting host. He does not ever lose his composure, which is what is expected of people in the CPT rank. He is always in parties with members, hosting game nights/workshops/meetings, and making sure that the behind the scenes stuff is getting done. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why they deserve this - KSI Sinon is no doubt a leading force in Doom. He hosts several game nights/workshops every week so that all members are able to learn and have a great experience within the community. KSI Sinon is leading the CS recruiting challenge with 7 recruits (3 as a LT), he has trained quite a few potential officers that have become an officer, and now a few that are looking to move up. He honestly rivals me when it comes to getting stuff done. He is the first one to jump on a promotion. I have stated multiple times "Oh I need to get this done right quick", and he leaves the party and gets it done before I have a chance to finish what I'm doing and take care of what needed to be done. Dude is a legit powerhouse that everyone in Doom seems to know and respect. I know he will do great things in this community, but he is 2nd to none at the LT rank. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Bane 7 Link to forums account - @Bane 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Bane made me put my foot in my mouth. When he first came over to Doom he said he wanted to move back up into the officer corps. I told quite a few people it's one thing to say it, then it's another to prove yourself and do it. I had my doubts that he was actually going to put in the efforts for his promotion, and I am glad he proved me wrong. Bane has recruited, promoted, trained, hosted game nights, hosted workshops, and party hopped like no one else in Doom as a SSGT. Bane is a well known face throughout the squad, and everyone seems to get along with him. He mastered the SSGT rank and has now been promoted to LT because all of his hard work. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Link to forums account - @KSI Ish Reasoning why they deserve this - KSI Ish was an amazing SGT. He is now a SSGT. He attended every workshop about three times while he was a SGT, and he was recruiting at all times. If he wasn't recruiting he was being trained or hanging with members, which is exactly what you want to see in a SGT. His willingness to learn, his activity, and his ambition to make the squad better is why he deserves this award. Forum Staff (ADMIN/MODS/DEPARTMENT HEADS) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DropShot 7 Link to forums account - @Mr. DropShot Reasoning why they deserve this -Dude does not do a single thing without weeks of preparation. Some may say T&E just hosts an event and scheduling is easy; however, that is not true at all. Drop literally plans as much as possible to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch. He also takes members opinions into consideration when it comes to game types, so all members can be happy, which boosts attendance at the events. Also the Spring Break was amazingly ran and that is because his dedication to the community is unmatched. Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tinc Link to forums account - @KSI Tinc Reasoning why they deserve this - KSI Tinc is a powerhouse in the AAP department. Dude is on top of everything. Whether it is verifying topics or speaking his mind he definitely takes the lead in most things. It is awesome to see what he has done in this department. Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) -Kasurto Link to forums account - @Kasurto Reasoning why they deserve this - He has only been in KSI for a few weeks but this guy is legit. He got put on the EK team and party hops like no ones business. He is one of the strongest CPLs in the community he jumps in my party and other leaders' parties just to hang out, which is what this community was designed for in the first place.

GeneralGamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI FennyLink to forums account - @FennyishereReasoning why the deserve this - When I rejoined KSI back in December, Fenny has always been able to find the time in her hectic schedule to not only be an amazing role model, but also be a general that everyone aspires to be. Through all of her knowledge and experience, she has made herself a valuable tool that cannot be replaced. I know that whenever I have a question, I know Fenny is only a short message away. While we have been through some hardships, Fenny is never afraid of a challenge and she always rises to the top. She leads our squad with passion and is a great role model for all of her members. Even wile running the squad, Fenny finds the time to be a Senior Staff member in the AAP. Fenny is destined to do great things within KSI and I look forward to being there when she does. Thanks for being you Fenny. LTGamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI SinonLink to forums account - @KSI DilfReasoning why they deserve this - While Dilf has only been in case for a few months, he has definitely made his presence known. While doing a lot of work behind the scenes, he always finds the time to spend with members and make them feel right at home. With everything that is on Dilf's plate, he still finds the time to be active in our information team. As time goes forward, Dilf is going to be doing great things in KSI. I look forward to seeing what this man can accomplish. Keep at it brother!! SSGTGamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI IshLink to forums account - @KSI IshReasoning why they deserve this - Over the last month, Ish is always striving to be a better member. Through his attentiveness in the workshops to spending time with members, Ish doesn't cut corners and is always determined to getting the job done. While he just started climbing the ranks to becoming an officer, I am certain that Ish is going to be doing great things on his way up the ladder. Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Head of EducationGamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 7Link to forums account - @KSI DC 7Reasoning why they deserve this - This man is the prime example of efficiency. From the moment he get's on to the moment he get's off, DC is on a mission to get something accomplished. Over the last few weeks, DC has been fine tuning every single workshop that KSI has to offer. While it might be a daunting task to most, this is just another day for DC. As the head of Education, he is always finding ways to improve the QOL for all KSI Members with Workshops. DC, I am amazed with all that you have accomplished and I can't wait to see what the future has to offer.

Categories Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 7 Head of Education Link to forums account - @KSI DC 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Coach Crunk deserves this award. From what I can see, DC devotes all of his time and effort to Education. Continuing to further revamp the workshops, guides, and handbook, he has been responsible for training many new members of KSI. Recently I was in a party and people from other divisions were saying that DC has taught them something. DC continues to be a mentor to a lot of members even outside of his own division in clan ops. As Head of Education, Coach Crunk makes sure all members stay educated with the various workshops and guides he has created and revamped General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Fenny Doom CS Gen Link to forums account - @Fennyishere Reasoning why they deserve this - I met Fenny the day I interviewed her when she was rejoining KSI, and at first I’ll keep it real, she just seemed like someone who was gonna stick around and just play games, and maybe go to SGT, because in the beginning that's what she said she wanted to do. Boy oh boy was that wrong. Fenny is an amazing general that has shown the squad what a fearless leader is. It's been a while since I have been in a squad that is so close with each other, and Fenny is a huge reason why Doom is like this. Fenny uses a lot of her time solely for Doom, and on the side she is a Senior Staff member in AAP. She doesn’t shy away from doing recruitments, training, and hosting events within her squad. Fenny leads by example, and her motivation rubs off on a lot of people. Fenny is General of this month, and many months to come. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iChief Doom CS CPT Link to forums account - @Chieffy Reasoning why they deserve this - Chief has got to be one of the nicest people I’ve met so far in KSI, and I’ve been around this community for over 6 years. The term nice guys finish last is all a myth and this guy is proving it. Chief always comes into parties with a positive attitude, at the moment from what I can see, Chief is the perfect right hand man to Fenny in Doom, but also I can see he’s ready to take on his own obstacles. Through attending his workshops I see that Chief is the best role model to all new and older members of KSI. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon Doom CS LT Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why they deserve this - Whoa, this guy is amazing. Sinon has been one of the best up and coming officers that I have seen in a long time. Someone with his drive and his passion for the community for only recently coming in is amazing. He knew he wanted to be an officer right away, and he’s doing a really good job, and shows so much potential. He’s always on top of what needs to be done, like training new members, and recruiting. The guy hosts workshops, and is part of the Information dept and is working on the handbook. This guy is going to have a lot of KSI knowledge in the future. Keep it up Sinon!!!!!! SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Ish Doom CS SGT Link to forums account - @KSI Ish Reasoning why they deserve this - Ish has come into the community this month and is already making a name for himself. Right now Ish is in T&E, and he is a join mod. On top of these other activities, Ish is also a rising officer in Doom CS. Ish was promoted to SSGT recently due to his success at the SGT rank. I really think his work as a SGT needs to be recognized. He immediately knew he wanted to rank up, the guy recruited, attended game nights, and stayed active with the squad. This guy was attending many CEP workshops multiple times. Ish will become a very knowledgeable leader in this community. Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tinc AAP Link to forums account - @KSI Tinc Reasoning why they deserve this - Tinc was one of AAPs recent hires, and he has been great so far. Although he is new to the area, he is already very knowledgeable on a good amount of the awards, and things we do. He is clearly very motivated in this department. This guy for someone very new is already really confident in the area, by sometimes being the first person to verify awards. Also he’s not afraid to ask questions he's unsure of. Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI TheFiend Dynasty SL SGT Link to forums account - @KSI TheFiend Reasoning why they deserve this - Yo even though this guy isn’t in my squad or even division. I see what he’s doing. TheFiend is a guy everyone would want in their squad if they could. He has the drive that the community needs from members. TheFiend has ended up in my parties very frequently, and it’s always been a good time. This guy continues to ask questions all around the community. What else can I say except end it on a text he sent in the community discord server. KSI TheFiend said “So I'm trying to meet every single member of our Gaming Community.”

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 7 Head Of Education Link to forums account - @KSI DC 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Since DC has been the HoE he has worked hard to get new workshops and guides made for the community. From working with him in Education on different workshops I've seen him trying to merge different workshops together so the information in said workshop would all be consistent while removing any trivial information that isn't essential. He also is always writing new material that will help our other members understand the concepts more clearly. He even hosts workshops throughout all the divisions to make sure every squad has a chance to learn the new material. I can tell he puts his all in the workshops to improve upon the information already listed to help future leaders in the community. CPT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iChief Link to forums account - @Chieffy Reasoning why they deserve this - Ever since chief has come into the officer core and even with his promotion to CPT he has been able to stay on task and get Poop done (excuse my language). This man takes up every chance to learn that you give him. If you need something done like a promotion or a member needs an officer to help out he is there to assist and he is just a great energy to be around. I've definitely seen his leadership skills come up here and there and I believe he has great potential in the future, even with a busy work and social schedule chief is sure to be on time to any event you need him at or that he is hosting. He has done a great job at mentoring other officers in the squad and i can't wait to see what more he can do. Its a pleasure working as a team with him and the rest of his squad. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon (AKA Dilf) Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why they deserve this - Dilf and Chief are essentially two peas in a pod when it comes to their work ethic. This guy is either always in a party with member/s playing and having fun or just talking to his other officers to gain more insight. Dilf is on top of promotions and is always there to jump on an opportunity when it arises. There is always good energy and vibes when you join a party with him and is always down to just talk if you don't have the games he plays and vice versa. He NEVER shys down from an activity or a chance to recruit and help other members grow their knowledge. The potential is overflowing with this one. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Bane 7 Link to forums account - @Bane 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - I know he's gonna hate me for nominating him as a SSGT but god dammit he's a great Schuckin SSGT (pardon my language). Bane is the kind of man who no matter what party you go in he seems to either follow, or already be in there hanging with members. His man's work ethic is crazy, he is constantly posting in the discord trying to get members active and play with him. He makes it a task to get to know everyone in the squad and make sure everyone in the squad knows him. He has a lot of passion and drive for KSI and we are working with that. He is always down to train and help out potential officers which I like to see not to forget he's a party hopping god. If there are KSI parties open, he's not one to shy away from jumping in and making a few friends on the spot, that's just the kind of person he is. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Ish Link to forums account - @KSI Ish Reasoning why they deserve this - Ish has been one of those members that's activity has been consistent through out his time here in Doom. Whether it be in the discord chats or participation in the gamenights he is down to chat. He's been putting time into recruiting and I can tell he cares about the community and wants to see it grow which is a great quality to have in a member. Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tinc Link to forums account - @KSI Tinc Reasoning why they deserve this - Since Tinc has been hired in AAP I've seen nothing but initiative and activity from this man. He takes criticism well when it comes to making mistakes but is never afraid to keep trying to verify awards and replying to topics. He is always down to learn something and doesn't shy away from asking questions when unsure. I can't wait to see what more he can do in AAP.

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 7 HoE Link to forums account - @KSI DC 7 Reasoning why they deserve this -The man is a beast, he put all his time and energy into reforming the workshops and helping to build a strong leadership core within KSI. He’s a work-a-holic and an exceptional one at that! General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Fenny - GEN CS Doom Link to forums account - @Fennyishere Reasoning why the deserve this - Ever since joining KSI Fenny has always been an open leader. She values every single member in Doom and it truly shows. Doom wouldn’t be the amazing squad it currently is without Fenny. We’re a doomsday family! Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iChief - CPT CS Doom Link to forums account - @Chieffy Reasoning why they deserve this - Chief has been a big role model within Doom, he puts in the extra time to make sure members understand what’s being taught and always enjoys playing with others. This guy is an all around beast! LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon - LT CS Doom Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why they deserve this - Sinon has put A LOT of work into KSI since joining. The man is a powerhouse, he wants to do and does everything. If he doesn’t have the time? He finds the time. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Bane 7 - SSGT CS Doom Link to forums account - @Bane 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Bane has been amazing, he gets what he has to get done.

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) KSI Venum 7 Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) successful division. ES Link to forums account- @The ChadMin Reason why they deserve this- Venum has been mentoring hydra staff since before I joined KSI. Although at the time he jokingly called himself a retired 7 he really couldnt help himself. He has been the person I vent to when frustrated and whom I go to when I need advice in navigating the waters here in KSI. Its not easy learning the ins and outs here his help has been invaluable. He has helped advise the 7s staff when Gambit/Hex was unavailable and questions us to help us continue to develop and do better and be better. If you ask him for his WHY he is here its fairly easy he wants to make a difference and make this community better ...I would say you have succeeded in doing so. I am so very proud to not only be your friend but your mentee because of you I am still here when many times I came close to walking away. You help me to remember my why and where I started from. So thank you very much I could not have made it this far without you and the many other great leaders who have contributed their knowledge to me. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) --Director KSI Slick 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Slick 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Despite being in and out of our Division he keeps watch and gives input when necessary and encouragement when we appear to be losing steam. Our division has taken some knocks this month but is making strides towards being a very strong well run division and this could not be done with out the support of our Director. Even when he wasnt assigned to this division he always kept things positive and looking at the bigger picture type thinking which can be hard when you are working in the trenches its easy to get caught up in whats in front of you instead of how far you have come or the foundation that has been layed to ensure a successful division Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) -KSI Hex 77 ES Director Link to forums account - @KSI Hex 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Hex been with me through every step of my career here in KSI. He has watched me take my lumps and offered support and inspiration when needed. Even when in my moments of frustration or pain I lashed out he was still there and able to stay reasonable when I wanted to rage. Yes I have those moments lol. Hex has helped me look at the bigger picture and how to use the skills that I have learned in my everyday career and apply it to the business aspect of KSI. If anything there are many times when we are telling each other to take a break and breath and just enjoy gaming as sometimes it feels like every time we are on we are handling something going on. The leadership skills I now possess in many ways are in thanks to him as he helped me to find my voice in a way that isnt the bossy momma telling you what to do but the mom that gives advice and allows you to make the mistakes necessary to learn and grow. Between handling a busy division technically acting Gen and training a new 7 staff taking care of his wonderful family and working his ass off to support them he is either an angel in disguise or a crazy man I havent decided yet. Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Link to forums account - Reasoning why they deserve this - Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Link to forums account - Reasoning why they deserve this - General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Link to forums account - Reasoning why the deserve this - Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xKing77 Captain Hydra Link to forums account - @KSI xKing 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - King returned to KSI and has been on fire since. He has helped revive a squad that had become quiet. Helped to build one of the badest Officer cores I have ever seen and still finds time to mentor me and anyone else that has questions concerning policy procedure or just figuring out the next steps necessary to succeed. He is a wonderful friend and definitely deserves recognition not based on past but on what he is proving now.. that he still has what it takes and that he is here to stay to make this a better community. Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sassy LT Hydra Link to forums account - @KSI Sassy Reasoning why they deserve this - Despite having a rough home life that made continuing in KSi difficult she has been working her tail off ..and if you didnt know she just had a baby 5 weeks ago and is still doing an inspirational job as an officer. Sassy is a wonderful teacher she takes the time when giving workshops to ensure that the members understand the materials she is presenting. She inspires all who are around her with her sparkling personality miss sassifrass has helped develop a long list of POs who are trained well and ready to step up to the plate at any given time. I have a lot of respect for her as an upcoming leader mom and friend. For all these things and many more she deserves SSGT of the month!! SSGT KSI Oni SSGT Hydra Link to forums account - @KSI Oni Reasoning why they deserve this - Oni is a chill dude. He vibes in almost any enviroment and can adapt to almost anything. Oni went above and beyond when it came to workshops taking them a few times to make sure he understood the material. He is a beast at almost every game I have seen him try to play. He has made so many friends here in such a short time. His loyalty and work ethic is above par. I see him in parties all over with members from every squad in ES not just Hydra. He is a well rounded dude I can see him continuing to take the ranks by storm and rocket to the top. I cant wait to see what the future brings. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) -KSI Clock Hydra ES Sgt Link to forums account - @KSI CLOCK Reasoning why they deserve this - Clock is just a chill dude always down to game. He is also realistic with his ability to commit time. Despite having the ability to become a wonderful officer he has chosen to stay a SGT for now while he focuses on school and secure himself the best education possible and I totally can respect that. He is as important to this squad as some of the officers as he has built relationships with damn near everyone. For such a young man the way he conducts himself restores my faith in todays youth as it is not seen as often as it should be. He makes me proud to be a COFO and proud to have started from Hydra. Forum Staff (ADMIN/MODS/DEPARTMENT HEADS) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xLittio Link to forums account - @KSI xLittio Reasoning why they deserve this - For a while Littio was basically absent while dealing with RL however since becoming active again he has been a great help with alerting us about potential Apps as they become available and has been willing to answer questions our officers have in the join area. He has started enjoying his squad again joining parties and hanging out. He has been really efficient with getting apps completed so they can join their squads as quickly as possible. It is wonderful to see him flourishing again. Department Member KSI Subzero Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Subzero LT Hydra Link to forums account - @KSI SubZero Reasoning why they deserve this - Subzero is always willing to answer or find out the answers our officers have about AAP or T and E especially with the annual events such as spring break and spirit week he has been invaluable in answering questions and assisting us in finding the answers. He has also listened to ideas that our members and officers have and broght them to the LC. He is always willing to go above and beyone to assist his squad and division in these areas Member JigglyPanda Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - Jiggly Panda Hydra CPL Link to forums account - Reasoning why they deserve this - Jiggly Panda a newer member to his squad has become a wonderful asset.

Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Slick 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Slick 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - cause why not.... honestly though he works his butt off making sure things are done properly and helping out anyone that comes to him for guidance. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI ATH3NA 7 WD Link to forums account - @KSI ATH3NA 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - She has done amazing things ever since joining WD. She has come in strong from the start and has had a tremendous impact on the division making sure that things are getting done properly and efficiently. She has helped with the retraining of officers, helped with motivation and morale, and she has sparked life into the division by bringing positivity and joy even through the tough times of SL closing. She has been a huge help to the division and has already done a great job of getting to know all the members of the division. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI MamaTank Samurai WD Link to forums account - @KSI Mamatank Reasoning why the deserve this - KSI Mamatank has done an amazing job leading her squad. She has got her officers producing at a high level in every aspect of their duties. She is an excellent leader who is well known by everyone within her squad and division. She is well respected and has busted her butt recently to make sure that Samurai continues growing and thriving while allowing her officers to grow and develop their skills. She has trained officers and hopped in numerous to parties to make sure everyone feels valued and accommodated. She is a great problem solver and thinks about the bigger picture consistently before making decisions. She listens to everyone and is always there for her members. Everyone knows they can always go to her when they are in need, and she has always gone out of her way to make everyone feel welcome to KSI. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Eslin024 Carnage WD Link to forums account - @KSI Eslin024 Reasoning why they deserve this - Eslin is second to none when it comes to being a captain. She has basically been running Carnage WD since the squad has been created. She has recruited, promoted, transferred, trained, member retended, etc. She has done it all and she has done it well. She is open to feedback, and she constantly strives to get better. Her name is always in the stats page and she is constantly communicating with all of the members on discord and xbox while she is updating promotion lists, weekly schedules, etc. She is not afraid to speak her mind, but she is always willing to learn as well. She has never shyed away from a challenge and is always trying to prove herself that she is ready to be a leader that this community deserves. She has faced many struggles and strife, yet she refuses to give in. She could easily quit and say she had a good career, but she refuses to let it die there. She is the face of her squad and continues to improve on a daily basis. Although her home division closed, she has continued to keep a positive attitude while never giving up. Her squad has three officers and instead of throwing in the towel she has decided to put the burden on her back and carry her squad to success, which has constantly improved since being established in WD. I would argue that Eslin has done more this month than most have to do in three months combined and has done it with less help because of the lower number officer corp. Her hard work has not gone unnoticed by her squad and she definitely deserves recognition for the work she has accomplished throughout this month. She is definitely more than deserving of this award. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Nobe Vanquish WD Link to forums account - @KSI NoBe Reasoning why they deserve this- Nobe has gone above and beyond as a SSGT. Dude is a recruiting beast and has proved why he a force to be reckoned with in clan ops. He is always recruiting, playing with members, and communicating with people. He is always in the stats page. He is always open to constructive criticism, and continues to improve as an officer everyday. He is an amazing leader and is great with being there for members. There is nothing that he can't do, and it is clear that he will be able to work back up the ranks quickly with the effort that he continues to give on a daily basis.

Hey would love to see an autism award. As a parent that has a child that is autistic I think it would be a cool way to show support for autism. Should be an award for anyone in community who just wants to: show support, has a child/family member who is autistic, or works with people that have autism.

Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Link: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: I'll try and keep this short and sweet as best as possible, Swag is a living and walking legend among Clan Ops as a whole. This guy can be stern when needed I know first hand but he's genuinely a pretty selfless guy. He's devoted countless and I literally mean countless hours of overtime for months if not years in his KSI career. He's helped me hundreds times and I've witnessed him first handedly be the mentors to many great leaders within this community. He's a testament to what being a great leader is all about. Leading by example, with patience, believing in others, giving and taking accountability, respect, dignity, strength, and confidence. He's been and will continue to be a great icon in this community for god knows how long. This man eats sleeps and breaths KSI. He is friends with everyone, never really heard or scene a bad action from the guy, granted I've only been here 2 years and some change but still the guys always up beat, motivated, and hungry to take Clan Operations to new heights and is always willing to listen and hear out his director team and let them make calls on their own whether it be for learning purposes or he truly sees what they see. all in all Swag is a bang up guy who you can always count on for knowledge or direction or a good ol knee slapper joke lol. Category: Div Leader Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Link: @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Since taking his seat as Division leader this year Uppish has grown so much, not just into his position but his mentality and leadership over all. He's still that loud mouth in the back of the classroom don't get me wrong lol but his mentality has been on the up and up all year. He's always focused on not only the short terms goals for each squad of his Div but also months out as well. He's always planning and scheming something new and exiting. I've watched him work his keester off a lot this year even when not being over CS as their Director. He reminds me a lot of my self as a div lead honestly with his endless planning and executions of said plans, but in reality he makes no decisions with out continuously putting the members sake first. He's had to make some tough calls this year with demotions, fluff's, squad directions and the divisions direction and he didn't stall or quit once not even hesitate. He moves with a laid back chill vibe but he'll whip you into ship shape if you cross him or take advantage of his kind laid back vibe. Working with Uppish has been a great ride so far and I genuinely cannot wait to see where he takes CS in the near future! Category: Co Founder Gamertag: KSI Grogu 7 Forums Link: @KSI Grogu 7 Reasons they deserve this award: One of the hardest workers in the room day in and day out continuously. This man impresses me damn near every day making me just say wow this mans got it. He's got the rare X factor that is just so hard to find. He'll be the first one to tell ya how he feels about something completely unfiltered and raw. Which most times isn't for the faint of heart but it IS needed. Often sugar coating everything all the time leads to falsehoods and messy mishaps. If he sees something not being done or someone struggling he's the first to jump into action and get it all sorted. He works hand in hand with his Div Lead excelling in most challenges and struggles and never has excuses. Its been a honor getting to work and know him and see what he's about. I'm more than confident and in full belief he will make an outstanding Div Leader some day if he stays on the path he has been on. Category: General Gamertag: KSI MercX Forums Link: @KSI MercX Reasons they deserve this award: Another all star hailing out of CS. This guy has the beans quite literally. He's got grit, determination, drive, and ambition as far as the eye can see. It took me no time at all to meet this fella as he was first at the door knocking saying yo I'm Merc nice to meet ya type of deal. He's genuine and cares about his entire squad deeply. When he smells an issue brewing he's first on scene to stop the broil over. He's big in the proactive and preventative maintenance department which I love to see from todays Generals. He's built a pretty rock solid officer core and it truly shows with his squads activity and ACTIVE member base. Over all the guy just shines in multiple areas and I cant wait to see where he pushes himself next! Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI Sleepy Forums Link: @Sleepy Reasons they deserve this award: This guy is a champion captain to start this off this guy is every where in KSI not just Clan Ops. But in his Clan Ops factors the guy is awesome. Constantly working to be better, make his officers better and make his squad over all better and more active. I honestly dont think there is a person in his squad who does not know him quite well. Hes always inviting others to his party and party hopping as well. He plays loads of games as well which helps him be more fluent with the members as well. He's an avid history buff on KSI and its history and is always seeking to learn more and more. Sleepy no doubt will make a great General sooner than later and from the hours ive spent with him in parties to imply put it the guy has it, that 1 of 1 personality thats just personable on all levels, doesnt matter what your gamer friend "type" is you cant help but like the guy. I know or a fact this guy can go and do whatever he puts his mind to and id bet on that.

Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI DC 77 Forums Link: @KSI DC 77 Reasons why they deserve this award: DC was instrumental in helping Wrath adjust to the transfer to CS, making sure every officer and PO were properly trained to the way that CS operates, and up to the standards expected across all of CS. He helped grow Doom to the point of a split, recruited like an absolute madman, and earned himself several awards in the process such as: Squad Splitter, Squad Builder, as well as a nomination into the CS Hall of Fame. And that's just what he accomplished on a squad level this year. He and his team created some amazing new CEP workshops that have certainly helped the community for the better, and the Officer Academy has pushed successful training into the stratosphere community wide. Without DC, we wouldn't have quality leaders coming through the ranks today, or powerhouse recruiters like Sleepy, MercX and a plethora of others throughout KSI making their marks on the community. Awards: CS DHoF Bright Idea Squad Builder KSI Hall of Fame Triple Threat Die Hard Senior Leader of the Month Department Hall of Fame Category: Director Gamertag: KSI Slick 7 Forums Link: @KSI Slick 7 Reasons why the deserve this award: Since coming to oversee CS, Slick really hit the ground running with us. I can personally attest that the 7s meetings I've been involved in with him are extremely informative, and he takes the time to listen to any concerns or issues we may face. Even with as busy as his schedule can be, he takes the time to pop in and at least say hi, and asks if there's anything we need from him. If time allows, he'll hop into the Gens meeting, and he'll even make room for a game night if he's not dog tired from a long day at work. That speaks volumes to me, because even at his level, he's willing to get around to the people that make up the majority of this community. He's always the first to tell you that without the members, everything else goes out the window and doesn't matter. Awards: Director of the Month Divisional Hall of Fame Division Leader of the Month Leadership Mentor Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Link: @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons why they deserve this award: Uppish really came into 2021 with both arms swinging, ready to take on any and every challenge thrown his way. I've learned a lot from him regarding how to be a General transitioning to Co-Founder, and how to treat this role in order to continue being successful. You won't find a Div Lead that can truly say they know the vast majority of their members. Uppish can, because he makes the effort to get out in front of those who matter the most...the members. I've worked with him as a GEN in DM, under his guidance when he moved to CS as a Co-Founder, and now working with him as part of the 7s staff in CS with him leading the charge as Div Lead. Everything runs pretty seamlessly in CS, because we're able to work together, work with our officer staffs, and continue to ensure that the leaders coming up the ranks have the proper training and guidance to continue growing this community in a healthy direction. Awards: Division Leader of the Month x2 Co-Founder of the Month x2 Divisonal Hall of Fame x2 (DM and CS) Silver Outstanding Service (OS LVL 2) Category: General Gamertag: KSI MercX Forums Link: @KSI MercX Reasons why they deserve this award: Merc took what built together with Wrath, and really pushed it to new heights once I moved up to Co-Founder, and he took the helm as General. His squad continues to be a truly amazing example of how a squad should look and operate. He knows his people in and out, and runs the squad along with his officer staff with surgical precision. He can smell an issue from a mile away, and addresses it before it ever has time to fester or grow into a larger problem. His attention to detail is second to none, and I can think of no other person that deserves this award more than him. Awards: General of the Month General of the Month: Divisional x2 Pro Recruiter Novice Recruiter Outstanding Service LVL 1 Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI Sleepy Forums Link: @Sleepy Reasons why the deserve this award: Sleepy came out of the gate ready to learn anything and everything he possibly could, and continues to do so even now. Several times, Sleepy has found himself as Acting General of his squad, and he's risen to the occasion every single time. His recruiting abilities are otherworldly, but it makes sense given once of his mentors, DC. But that ability doesn't even begin to describe how seasoned and well versed Sleepy is in everything he finds himself involved with in KSI. Clan Ops, News, Education, Leadership Council, Graphics...he has the Midas touch! You would be hard pressed to find anyone throughout the entire community that hasn't heard his name at least once. People flock to him, and it's very easy to see why if you get the opportunity to spend some time around him. He has the hearts and minds of his squad, and I have no doubt he'll continue to do so throughout his journey in KSI. To name just a few of his accomplishments: Completed nearly all Security Checks for his squad on his own, completed nearly every single transfer to Calamity from Doom when Doom closed down, routinely brings in several recruits per week, routinely has 20+ member game nights, knocks out every promotion he can to ensure they don't go past due, and still finds time to train those around him. Now for the awards: Capped Out Approachable Pro Recruiter Captain of the Month: Divisional Philanthropist Squad Builder Outstanding Service Novice Recruiter Captain of the Month Squad Splitter Trainer Category: Member Gamertag: KSI T StackG Forums Link: @KSI T StackG Reasons why they deserve this award: It's hard to think of OTY nominations without mentioning Stack. We started this year off in a bit of a rough patch with the closure of DM, but things turned around when we moved to CS. Stack came back through the ranks with a new drive and desire to be the best member and leader he possibly could. His actions this year prove that. Stack is one of the driving forces behind the success of Wrath, and he serves as a one-two punch with Merc to make things happen. His attention to detail and dedication to his duties are a big part of what makes them as successful as they are. This man makes it his mission to get to know every single person in his squad, as well as others. You'll always find him making his rounds through parties to introduce himself, or having a fun game or two if he's able. You can glance at our Discord chat at any given time, and Stack will always be one of the prominent names you see conversing with everyone.

Sr Leader: KSI Swag 77 @KSI Swag 77 Mr. Pickles has been all over the community this year but his two biggest accomplishments are easily how well CS & ES are doing compared to when he first engaged with them. CS has grown to hover between 280-300 members since June/July and that's in no small part due to the groundwork Swag laid down and the policies that were implemented in CS. ES was way down on its luck when Swag first stepped in, a few months later ES completely turned around and won Fall Classic. Swag's ability to generate positive momentum in a Division is top tier & shows on every level of a Division when he works. As always, I'm looking forward to seeing what's next. Keep it up homie! Awards: Senior Leader OTM (x3) June 2021, April 2021, Jan 2021. Die Hard KSI Hall of Fame Division Creator 2021 Donor Director: KSI Slick 7 @KSI Slick 7 Slick has taught me a lot about how be able to step back and trust the leaders below you. It's shown in CS as I've watched those same leaders grow, mature, and evolve since we've started working together. Slick is a unseen but crucial part of how CS operates. His advice has always been helpful and worked out well. Now if only he'd expand his gametypes.. Awards: Director OTM Oct 2021 SL DHoF Division Leader OTM Jan 2021 Leadership Mentor Co-Founder: KSI Grogu 7 @KSI Grogu 7 Not many people can say they earned an OTM for the very first month as a certain rank, let alone as Co-Founder. KSI Grogu 7, aka Shatner, is one of the select few who can make that claim. He undoubtedly is a fundamental necessity for CS. As the Division Leader of CS, I'm 1 person and can only do so much. Shatner is my right hand in CS, we work like peanut butter & jelly to help the squads of CS to flourish and grow. In his time as a Co-Founder, I've come to count on him more and more. He's the type of go-to guy that I wish we could clone so every Division would benefit from his experience and KSI expertise. Shatner has been a critical part of guiding the leaders of Rebellion, Wrath, & Calamity to expand and grow in knowledge and leadership skills as they seek to improve their squads. As a General, Shatner built Wrath into the golden example of what a squad could & should be. A powerhouse of sustainable growth, high quality leadership, & active members that are kind & welcoming. Since he has become a Co-Founder Shatner has begun to implement those virtues & ideals across the Division. CS has benefited greatly from his hard work and dedication. Quite simply, the maximum impact one individual can make on a division is epitomized in the one and only, Shatner. Awards: Co-Founder OTM (x2) Jul 2021 & Oct 2021.

MercX has taken Wrath to new heights since becoming its General. He's built his officer staff into the stuff KSI Leadership dreams about every night. Wrath has set the CS record for most recruits in a 7-day span at 15. Not as 1 or 2 officers, but as an entire team the officers & POs worked together to make that number happen. Since July 15th, Wrath has had an impressive 66 recruits. This is how Merc has been able to grow his squad and find new officers to fill his staff with. Merc's done a phenomenal job leading Wrath to sustainable, long-term greatness as a squad. Don't stop now big fella! Awards: Gen OTM Jul 2021 Gen DOTM (x2) Aug 2021, Nov 2021 OS Level 1 2021 Donor Novice Recruiter Pro Recruiter Helping Hand Captain: KSI Sleepy @Sleepy What a bum! For real though he is. But Sleepy is also a bum-bastic Captain! Backpacking his squad for months as his fellow officers struggled from time management or (at times) lackluster work ethic. Sleepy has kept Calamity above water and moving forward. He's got the beginnings of a great officer core and all that's left is to build that comradery and chemistry that can only come with time. Sleepy always leads his squad by example and has become a stat sheeter who is second-to-none. Let me break down the stats for y'all. Since joining KSI in March 2021, Sleepy has performed 73 promotions, 42 transfers (primarily from that squad split he was a crucial part of), 65 recruits, 184 total stat chat posts, nearly 50 security checks, trained over a dozen POs or officers and been Acting General for about 3 months, despite only being a Captain for almost 7 months. He's donated $100s of dollars to fellow members in multiple squads & across Divisional lines. Sleepy became a well known figure & leader throughout the community as he joined & flourished in multiple departments/areas of the community. Sleepy is a member of News, LC, Education, and Graphics on top of being a reckoning force in Clan Ops. His work ethic, time management, and thirst for knowledge is first rate. Every once in a while there are leaders who show the drive, intelligence, work ethic, and innate ability to make it all the way to the top. Only time will tell if Sleepy will, but you'll be hard pressed to find anyone who thinks he can't make it happen.

Groudon, as he more commonly known, has been on the forefront of training officers for his squad. Three of those people have made SSGT and another to Lieutenant, with two POs who are eager to do the same. All of them have been exceptionally trained and surprisingly knowledgeable about KSI overall & their specific duties as officers. His top tier training skills have been a critical key to helping his squad build out their officer core and continue their streak (hehe.. get it!?) of excellence.

Despite being centuries old in KSI-years, everyone's favorite 4th SGT has been a fantastic member this year. He's helped old friends rejoin and make new homes in KSI. Pastries has helped host & cohost gamenights usually Halo or Golf w/ Friends and introduced fun new gamemodes to keep things fresh and exciting. He always helps to build the hype for annual events, participating in nearly every single event for the entire year! A CS party is never truly complete without Pastries there to liven the mood and make moth jokes (old people jokes ig..?) He's branched out and made friends with members across squad and divisional lines, introducing his squad to new ideas and ways of thinking. Pastries was also a welcomed addition to KSI's 10th anniversary podcast in September! A great friend and an phenomenal asset to KSI, Pastries is and forever shall be a KSI OG. Awards: Member OTM Oct 2021 Dedicated Devoted Weekend Warfare Winner Member: KSI T StackG @KSI T StackG The only person I know who can talk an endless amount of trash while getting crushed in a game, and only make sense for about 20% of it. Frankly we're fairly convinced Stack has invented a new version of English. Despite his occasional incoherent verbal diarrhea, Stack is one of the most beloved and cherished members of CS. A machine of an officer, it was a tough call where to put him for an OTY nomination. But easily a top flight member who's always down to game with anyone. He's organized Division-wide gamenights, been a great hype man for annual events, and been invaluable benefit to his squad. Stack has never truly sought power or higher ranks in KSI but is arguably more deserving of them than anyone else I know. This guy is a one man powerhouse of positivity, good vibes, & motivation that is unmatched throughout this community. If you have to pick a guy to build a squad from the ground up, Stack is your go-to guy.

While running AAP he's stepped up in his squad and hosted or cohosted several fun gamenights without being asked to. Paradox wanted to help his (at the time) struggling squad and did so. That level of dedication to all aspects of KSI can be difficult to find, but I'm glad to count Paradox as one of the few who still have it.

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 77 [Chief of Knowledge] Link to forums account - @KSI DC 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - I believe DC is well deserving of this months Senior Leader OTM, due to knowledge and involvement he has had with members this past month, from what I have noticed. DC has a hosted a very well informative workshop within WD this month, leaving Offiers and Members who have attended with new acquired knowledge, as well as involving us into better expressing our knowledge and opinion. Learning more about eachother and the influence we believe leaders have. DC is well informed, hence the CoK lol, but doesn't turn his back on members wishing to learn more or involve themselves more. He is a great leader and a great example an officer looks up to to improve their knowledge within the community. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI ATH3NA 7 [SL - CoFounder] Link to forums account - @KSI ATH3NA 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - I've only encountered her once due to our different divisions. The reasoning I would like to nominate her is given the Gamenight I have attended with her attendance, I have noticed how welcoming and enthusiastic she is towards new members, whether from her own division or another. She seems to always be open in meeting new individuals and always offers others a chance to shine. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI N8iv 406 [GEN - WD/Vanquish] Link to forums account - @KSI N8iV 406 Reasoning why the deserve this - Just like the nominee above, I would like to nominate N8iv due to his welcoming demeanor.

Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI LEGION [CPT - WD/Vanquish] Link to forums account - @KSI LEGION Reasoning why they deserve this - LEGION is a kindhearted individual who always goes above and beyond to make fellow members feel involved, welcomed and invited. Whenever I join his party, there is always a positive atmosphere. LEGION has personally bought me a game that the party was playing so I can join them. Though the game was on special, the deed itself shouldn't go unnotice as the principle behind just shows the lengths he would go to make members feel involved and doesn't miss the opportunity to give them the chance to meet and game with new members. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tripped [LT - WD/Samurai] Link to forums account - @KSI Tripped Reasoning why they deserve this - I believe Tripped best suits the description of a OTM member due to his overachieving work ethic. Tripped is a hardworking individual who has stood out the most within my time here in Samurai. He is outgoing and has put much time and effort into this squad to help turn it around and revitalize it. Tripped has been involved with new members and POs going above and beyond the task of an officer and not shying away by stepping up to the plate when needed. Tripped has been increasing his activity and has been a vital pillar to our squad. I cannot wait to see him grow within the community. He has hosted many gamenights and workshops to ensure members have a chance to be involved and aid several POs with their requirements. Tripped has stepped up so much, and I feel as though the growth of the squad has especially been due to Tripped's efforts. Thanks again for the time you put within the squad, it will never go unnoticed! SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xLycan [SGT - WD/Samurai] Link to forums account - @KSI xLycan Reasoning why they deserve this - Due to xLycan's previous trail within KSI, moving up to the rank of General, Lycan's knowledge never seeses to amaze and aid fellow members. xLycan has been involved and active within Squad activites, and has been much help in aiding and mentoring fellow members/POs who are seeking his knowledge and help. Forum Staff (ADMIN/MODS/DEPARTMENT HEADS)Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Food 7 [Head of Information]Link to forums account - @Food 7Reasoning why they deserve this - Food 7 has been really open to new ideas and never pushes any ideas away. He is very welcoming to new ideas and isn't afraid to involve himself into the development of the idea that was brought up. He is very knowledgeable and a great leader, who enjoys involving himself as well as supporting ideas that aren't his own, as long as it's for the benefit of the community. He has aided me with one of our current projects. I can't wait to work alongside him with more projects that can benefit KSI as a whole, as well as adapting our work for all members to benefit from. Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Kakashii 77 [Design Artist - Chief Technology Officer] Link to forums account - @Kakashii 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Kakashii has much dedication and involvement within the Graphics Department and never seems to amaze members with his talents as a GFX artist. Kakashii has always gone above and beyond within whatever task has been placed within his hands. No matter if it's Department, Clan Ops or Web Ops related, Kakashii is always dependable and key pillar that holds KSI together.

Has came out to a few Templar game night to make his presence known in the community. He has put effort into ensuring that the servers are properly taken care of for the community along with interacting with every member possible. Makes member's feel welcomed and relaxed around his presence and is an example to the rest of us. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI ATH3NA 7 - Co-Founder of Sovereign Legacy Link to forums account - @KSI ATH3NA 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - There is too much to say when it comes to athena but to make things sort and sweet is; she makes her presence known everywhere. She overworks all her responsibilities in terms of putting in everything she has to ONLY see the benefit in others that are part of this division and community. SL is her family but she puts KSI above all. She truly cares for the development of ALL leaders in this community and self development of each person. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Lucifer - SSGT in Sovereign Legacy - Templar Link to forums account - @KSI_Lucifer Reasoning why they deserve this - Personally Lucifer joined with an overall positive and motivated attitude to get the squad rolling. He comes in day to day to help do what is needed. This squad has completely turned thanks to the efforts of him putting in his part. It is a pleasure to work beside him and build up this squadron. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSISparkyFly - SSGT in Sovereign Legacy - Templar Link to forums account - @KSISparky Fly Reasoning why they deserve this - Sparky has been a "spark" to the squadron itself. He has shown that putting your mind and focus to it with a busy schedule pays off. He has been a KEY member to develop and build this squad to where it is right now. That is what get sparky to recently get promoted this week to SSGT. I think out of all SGTs that served so well sparky is up there in terms of his input to this community. Department Head of the Month Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIxAsuma 77 - Head of Productions Link to forums account - @KSIxAsuma 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - lets just say he is one of the department members in media who much standout in insuring that this brand gets advertised out there. We see how much time he puts in ensuring the top platy of the month videos and clips are created and is a very welcoming individual. Cares about growth and development of the community in general.

So.. I'm not up to date on what all Stack has done recently. But, when I was around and he was coming up the ranks. This guy was a force to be reckoned with. If it wasn't for his hard work and dedication, his squad probably would have been worse for wear. So I can say with Confidence that if that is the mentality that he is still rocking with, then NOBODY deserves this award more.

Not sure if I'm able to witness but if my time as a former KSI leader I can think of many people who would qualify for this award. Amongst them would be KSI Rogue 7. He has given blood sweat and tears into KSI admist personal life trouble, work related issues, heck even pandemic related issues and you will always see this man work. As his former leader I witnessed him do amazing things when others in similar situations would dial it back and step down, he instead soldiers on and works harder . Granted I have been out for a few months but his current rank is further evident that he continues to strive and be a leader. He is KSI incarnated and I wouldn't be surprised if he makes CEO one day if thats what he wants. So if you asking me if he qualifies for Die Hard, I think the description of the award is basically describing him fully. Lastly speak to any person who isn't in KSI anymore about Rogue and they will tell you exactly what I told you.

Category: Senior Leader (Board Of Directors, Senior Directors): Gamertag: KSI Kakashii 77 Forums Account Link / @: @Kakashii 77 Reasons they deserve this award: I truly believe that this member has gone above and beyond his duties as head of LC. KSI accomplished a milestone in the peace talks with Hydra and He was there to deal with all the positives and negatives of talks between the BoD, LC members, and Hydra. I believe he was a true example of professionalism as he conducted LC meetings with this extremely hard and controversial subject. He stayed on task and kept to the subject at hand. He also has conducted interviews for new LC members at 3 am in order to get to every applicant. Im not sure how he accomplished running the meetings, monitoring the chat during meetings and taking notes but he did that for a few months. And to do all of that on top of the sensitive material handled in the meetings is really unbelievable to me as just a note taker. He is always available to answer any questions or needs I have and honestly I am very excited to be able to nominate him for OTY considering he was an intricate part of helping get the peace talks started, and continuing in a positive direction. Thank you KSI Kakashi 77 for doing everything you do out of concern for this community. Category: Director Gamertag: KSI xKing 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI xKing 77 Reasons they deserve this award: It amazes me how much King has already done for DM. He is always available day or night and he has already experienced full force the curse of DM, no sleep lol. He is active in all the chats, from encouraging the officers to meeting and greeting members. He is trying new game types in order to be active in gamenight's and individual parties. The total upheaval of our division didn't scare him one bit. He rolled up his sleeves and began working right beside the leaders in DM to repair and heal the remaining squads. He helped us from our first 7's meeting by setting new goals to learning basics over again.. King has shined as an example of what this community is all about, family and team work. Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Joe 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Joe 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Honestly, this man is a powerhouse. He will never ever realize the amount of members he has a positive influence on. He has grown in many ways this year. He has come into his own about standing up for himself and others. He has definitely been in the trenches for KSI in trying to maintain a safe and fun gaming community for all the members in DM. Even as a div lead he is out there recruiting and then spending hours getting the new recruit connected and involved. His work ethic is such that at one point this year he wore three hats, div lead, acting cofo, and acting General all at the same time. He gets tired but is always ready to jump in and help in any situation. He remains professional and always sees things from his point of view but also from the other members point of view. He never uses his rank for power or self benefit. He always sees it as more ways to help others. DM would never have made it this year without him. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Lilith 7 Forums Account Link / @KSI Lilith 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Amanda has dealt with so much since she decided to step up and be an officer. As a general she never allowed anyone to sway her from her duties. She always took the time to keep close eye on details and never shied away from her squad becoming the best it could be. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI T StackG Forums Account Link / @KSI T StackG Reason T Stack has been a tremendous breath of fresh air since he was recruited. He first stepped up to be an officer to help his General out but that quickly turned to also wanting to help each member have their best KSI experience. He took on every promotion, every recruitment and every gamenight with a smile and never complained. He reached out to all the members and many times I've seen him in chat telling someone that he didn't have a game but would get it in order to play with them. He is everyday putting positive qoutes in the chats and trying to get hype going with questions and/or polls. He is truly going to prove to be a young powerhouse in this division. Category: SGT Gamertag: KSI Ocean Power Forums Account Link / @KSI Ocean Power Reasons they deserve this award: Ocean is a very unique and awesome member of the DM family. He has gone above and beyond to help out any member however young or old, good gamer or bad. He is very aware of every individual and "gets a feeling" when they need a personal message or talk. He lives the code of KSI on a daily basis minute by minute and no matter what happens or the problems that come up he is positive, patient and up beat through all of them. He is willing to help in any way possible and is even willing to get "the stink eye from his wife for being on too late taking care of others. We love you Ocean. Category: MEMBER Gamertag: KSIxRoyal Forums Account Link / @KSIxRoyal Reasons they deserve this award: So this member is a true hero in DM. He has the patience that most all us leaders would love to have. He can be in a party and even though he cruises through gaming he always slows down and picks members up and teaches them or carries them. Even if its hours in a raid. I have never heard him speak a negative word about anyone and he always gos with the flow and just continues on to the end no matter what challenge in RL he may be dealing with. He supports the newest recruit to the oldest leader. Rank means nothing to him because he is friendly and that's everyone equal.

Category: Senior Leader (CEO) Gamertag: KSI xKing77 Forums Account Link: @KSI xKing 77 Reasons they deserve this award: King has been a very crucial part in helping rebuild DM since DM took a major hit back in late September. 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.

Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 CS Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Uppish has been extremely involved in Calamity recently, working with myself to help better the squad in whatever way he can. Even if it’s just small things like making the weekly goals a little bit easier on the eyes, he’s involved with the officers on a day-day basis and is always thinking of something new or a fun new way to mess with Nezuko. He’s been extremely understanding with me and my current situation in life and has done nothing but support me through this little rough patch. I appreciate what you’ve done for me homie, keep it up ya BBQ Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Shatner 7 CS Link to forums account - @KSI Shatner7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Shatner is just the GOAT. Literally. Mans spent about an hour on the phone with me trying to fix my internet so I could properly connect and actually play games. He figured out what my ISP couldn’t lol, and that’s only 1 thing he’s done for me this month. Honestly I’ve lost count, but some of the ones I’d like to recognize are the times when he stepped in if I needed this month. Shatner has been there for me for anything I needed, if I wanted to take a day off he had me. If it was an hour, day or week it didn’t matter. He has helped me realize it’s fine to ask for help, cause sometimes we all need it. Shatner embodies the KSI meaning and shows his passion for the community in everything he does daily, not only has he done things for my squad but every squad in this division. Keep it up homie, I appreciate you and the hard work that you put in daily. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI T StackG Link to forums account - @KSI T StackG Reasoning why the deserve this - First off, Stack is terrible at gangbeasts. Simple as that. But you know what he’s great at ? Being a leader in the community. Stack works a 3rd shift schedule and still somehow finds a way to do KSI. He doesn’t change the time he’s hosts his gamenights to fit his schedule and doesn’t let real life and his work schedule get in the way. I’ve learned a lot from Stack but the one that will stick with me is it’s okay to take a day to yourself. I remember I was stressing out about something earlier in the day and he shot me a message checking in on me and just telling me to give myself a day off. It showed that he cares about the people around him, and honestly I’m thankful for that day and the friendship I’ve built with him. Appreciate you brotha. P.S. I know ya momma Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Nezuko Link to forums account - @KSI Nezuko Reasoning why they deserve this - Mr.Politics himself. Nez has been a fantastic CPT since the minute I promoted him. He’s on top of current issues within the squad and is always trying to fix them or make improvements. He’s a statchat stuffer and you can find him all over Calamity, in the chats, Xbox bios and member parties. He’s truly everywhere in this squad and I’m very proud of him and how he handles himself. Nez isn’t one to sleep on, and I’ll die on that hill. Keep it up Mr.Politics, I don’t know what id do with out ya.

Senior Leader (Board Of Directors, Senior Directors): Director: KSI Slick 7 Ive only met this man a few times in parties but by far the most active Director in my personal opinion. He is one of the only directors to actually join game nights and interact with the members. He’s a very chill laid back guy who remembers people and gets personal with his members. @KSI Slick 7 Division Leader: KSI Uppish 7 This man has always had the benefit of this community in mind when it comes to the work he puts into the squads. He’s always there when you need him. I’ve had question after question and suggestions and this man has probably gotten annoyed with me a few times but yet he still answers and follows through to the best of his ability. @KSI Uppish 7 Co-Founder: KSI Grogu 7 Ive known him since day one of being in KSI as he knows how to spot potential. when he does he will tell yu and not only tell yu that yu hav potential but guide yu. He won’t just hold your hand and give yu the answers, he will tell yu the tools yu hav and to make sure to think before assessing. This man has made my experience in this community a marvelous time and I’m sure he will continue to do the same for others. His work ethic speaks volumes. @KSI Grogu 7 General: KSI MercX unfortunately he is the only one to be able to be nominated lol I’m just kidding. He is constantly thinking and devising new ways to improve squad activity as well as openly communicating with the officer staff he has in place. He’s come a long way in a short period of time and knows how to handle many problems when they occur. He has been a mentor to me during my time as acting gen, giving me tips and pointers to help me improve. He continues to be a top notch power house and is the driving force of wrath. @KSI MercX Captain: KSI Sleepy even though this man is in a different squad he constantly tries to keep the squads connected and act as a singular division. This man has become an education mentor and has taught multiple people. He is a well of knowledge and will one day become an outstanding General. He’s the most personable Captain to the people and I feel like once he gets going, there’s no stopping him. Lieutenant: KSI StreakX both of these guys I have seen grow from little PVTs to superb LTs. I’ve trained both of these fellows and it brings me pride to nominate these two for this award for the amount of training they have done since they’ve become an officer to the connections they make to the members themselves. They have shown they are hungry and will chew any challenge yu give them to bits. Bravo guys, you make me proud! @KSI StreakX SSGT: KSI Walrus As stated above for the resin but can’t hav two nominations for the same rank. My reasoning still stays the same but I feel Walrus shocked all of us when he became an officer and was on fire. He still is to this day, with keeping up with the squad, to training, down to the recruiting itself. Keep on striving brother! @KSI_Walrus SGT: KSI An Rinn the passion this guy had for the community and the members is a god sent and drove him to want to become an officer. Unfortunately the stresses of real life took a toll and he could no longer keep his rank and stepped down.. but that does not define who this person is, or wat he stood for. He is very caring for the members and is always sure to ask questions and made everyone feel comfortable around him. He would make sure to congratulate others on their promotions and even go out of his way to hop in their party if they were in one, just to tell them they’re an amazing person and keep up the good work. @KSI An Rinn CPL: VaporX he hasn’t been here long but more active than most CPLs I see, definitely someone I can see going somewhere if they choose to change their GT @VaporX Forums Staff (Mods, Senior Mods, Admins): Department Head: Department Member: Member (Overall best member of the community for the year):

Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: Swag is easily one of the hardest working members in KSI. Dude has done full division officer training. Over more than one div. From the moment wrath came to CS. Dude has been there to help anyway he can. Comes to hangout not only for business but just to play as a member. Swag is always great to be in a party with. Officer wise, swag gives great POV advice and leadership. Literally can come to him with any idea. He sets you up for success. Swag is what I expect from a Senior leader. Chill to hangout with but also knows when it's time to get work done. Senior Leader OTM (x3) June 2021, April 2021, Jan 2021. Die Hard KSI Hall of Fame Division Creator 2021 Donor Category: Div Lead Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Uppish as a CS div lead has been nothing short of great experience. Every meeting uppish hosts is always informative and organized giving a clear game plan for division progression. Uppish is always easy to talk to and available to answer any question or just for advice. He is able to be friends while still managing the level of respect he has earned as div lead. He still continues to make it a point to meet each new recruit at some point in their KSI journey. With the goals set for where uppish wants to lead CS. He never shies away to get his hands dirty. Is action cofo over more than one squad when needed. Keeps up on his officer staff's progression and even provides a different way of thinking. Setting the standard high of where he expects his leaders to be. Uppish pushes for you to be the best you can be. Setting goals for officers that highlight members abilities or even creates them. Always looking at situations from more than just one perspective. He weighs his options based on logic and opinions of the people around him. Just that alone. Him deserving of being Div lead of the year. But let's mention his achievements. Dude is a lengthy award list, the few to mention Awards Division Leader OTM (x2) Jul 2021, Oct 2021 Co-Founder OTM (x2) Mar 2021, Apr 2021 CS DHoF OS Level 2 Turned down 2 successful OS Level 3 noms due to recognizing various flaws in the nomination process. Division Creator Double Trouble Weekend Warfare Winner Weekend Warfare Champ Server Booster 2021 Donor Category: Cofo Gamertag: KSI Grogu 7 Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Grogu 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Grogu, aka Shatner, has always been a hard worker and a person everyone gravitates towards for advice. We first met when he was transferred to Wrath as a SSGT. Shatner has been reliable go-to guy right from the start. As a previous General, he knew exactly what to do and how to execute. Having him as a CPT was incredible, anything I would ask of him got done immediately. When it was just him and I running Wrath, the man was nothing short of a monster. Even with all the problems we faced, Shatner stuck it out despite the odds against him. He is a huge reason Wrath is still here. His leadership naturally permeated throughout Wrath and inspired others to imitate him & strive to out-do him. Shatner's ability to multitask effectively, never flinching or slowing down while setting the highest standards for Wrath. He trained a great officer core before being promoted up to Co-founder, where he's been a brilliant leader and masterful mentor. In his time as a CS Co-founder, Shatner has taken his skills to the big time. Showing the Div what they should strive to become. With clearing recruits, Shatner will have multiple recruits cleared within a short time. I've still been giving new recruits the run down and he will let me know they've been cleared. Anytime there's an issue either within the squad or within the division. Shatner has handled it with an open mind, solid problem solving skills, and fair judgment. His ability to train officers while solving issues has been on full display as CS has faced adversity the past few months. It's truly a quality of a remarkable leader. Guiding officers to figure out solutions by teaching them how to break down situations step-by-step has been amazing. It's helped officers & members alike solve issues throughout CS on their own before they have the chance to escalate to his level. Shatner also relays information well and makes sure it's understood. He puts things in perspective when being brought up issues members have. Shatner is a huge reason why CS is what it is today. Awards: Co-Founder OTM (x2) Jul 2021 & Oct 2021. CS DHoF Gen OTM Apr 2021 Gen DOTM May 2021 OS Level 1 Charity Gifter Helping Hand Novice Recruiter Trainer 2021 Donor Category: Gen Gamertag: KSI MercX Forums Account Link / @: @KSI MercX Reasons they deserve this award: Merc has always been a person that stood out from the moment he joined and still is. Man is an amazing recruiter, consistent at his duties and always goes out his way for members. While being a part of other departments, merc still remained consistent with his presence as gen in wrath. From taking lead in building the officer staff to being a great member. Merc sets his officers up for success by allowing each officer to train their replacement, giving a hand when needed. Following up making sure procedures are done correctly. Following through with dealing with any problems members have for a final say. Working together with his officer staff. He sets a great example of how a gen should operate. Running wrath as a unit.

He has easily recruited the majority of people in his squad. Sleepy is well known in CS as the face of calamity for all the hard work he has done from training officers and getting recruits. To being a great member, being a fun person to be around. While being in multiple departments(Clan Ops, News, Education, Leadership Council, Graphics), he still keeps up with his officer duties. When doom split he led the way for the procedure. Being on top of getting with most of the members for the transfer. He has proven himself to be a valuable asset to not only calamity but to CS. He has people from different divisions coming to him for advice.

Man is always up for training potential officers. Constantly doing something officer related without showing any sign of slowing down. He sets a great example of how to take lead in helping build an officer staff. When is not training he is playing with members and/or recruiting. Even with dealing with hard times. He still continued to keep in presence known in KSI LT DOTM Nov 2021 LT OTM Oct 2021 SSGT DOTM Aug 2021 Category: Staff Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Walrus Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Walrus Reasons they deserve this award: From the day I recruited this man. Due was all for KSI. He lunged at the opportunity to give back and has hit the ground running. Man is exactly what you would want in an ambitious officer. From getting recruits to being on top of promotions. To flawlessly get done any tasks handed out to him. Not only is he a great worker. But an awesome person. Walrus people skills are top tier. Sets a great example of how you would expect members to be. The little time he has been in KSI. Walrus has made his presence known. Not many people would say “who?” when being asked if they know who he is. His game nights are always fun. Professionalism on point. He definitely deserves this award Category: Sergeant Gamertag: KSI Aether Forums Account Link / @: @God of Snacks Reasons they deserve this award: Aether is subconsciously the role model KSI member you need in every squad. Any questions new members have, he either has the answer or knows who to direct them to. Looks out for other members and is always down to play with anyone. He has help gotten a lot of members recruited and has helped identify the ones that are bad. He is one of the most qualified SGT’s to be an officer.

Director @KSI Slick 7 - Director CS/SL Slick has been awesome this month helping the CS 7s Staff and officer cores grow as a whole. We've been able to keep making continuous improvements across the Division and Slick played no small part in that process. We don't say it often enough but I appreciate you fam Co-Founder @KSI Grogu 7 CS Co-Founder Shatner (aka Grogu the GrogMan) is seriously the only reason I can stay a relatively sane individual in KSI. My right & left hand CS, this guy does it all. We're almost always in lockstep and thinking the same thing without even trying to. He's a fantastic CoFo and a phenomenal leader. I always tell the people around me to keep an "If I get hit by a bus.." plan. Thankfully, as long as Shatner is around that plan is safe and secure. Cheers bud, don't go anywhere.. please General @KSI MercX - Wrath CS General Merc runs a tight ship and by god it's a really friggin' good one. He's got a squad that I'd bet on against any other is KSI. 2 phenomenal CPT's, 2 spectacular LT's, 3 SSGTs that have been crushing it and a backpack FULL of good looking POs. Merc has been building a high octane officer core for months and they have balled out this month. 15 RECRUITS IN 8 DAYS!! Wrath has been on a tear and Merc has piloted this ship like master. Kudos Merc! Keep it up! Captain @KSI Kat - Rebellion CS Captain When Jak went on LoA bc of Hurricane Ida, Kat seamlessly stepped into the role of Acting General. Under her tutelage, Rebellion made steady progress with POs, activity, growth, and creating better habits. It was a lot to ask of her and Kat answered the call without hesitation. Kat's exceptional leadership and problem solving abilities are a big part of the reason Rebellion is doing well right now. Keep up the good work Kat! Hard work always pays off. LT @KSI-Groudon - Wrath CS LT Groudon has been KILLING IT this month with training officers & POs. He has shown some serious game with his training skills, Groudon has put in a lot of work with all 3 of the newest SSGTs in Wrath and it shows. Their enthusiasm, intuition, & work ethic is no joke. That all starts with the attitude of the people who train them to be officers, which is where Groudon shines. Take a bow and a lap my friend. Your hard work has not gone unnoticed. Member @KSI Pastries 7 - Rebellion CS, (4th) SGT Well SGT Donut, someone should give you some credit. Cuz a party with Pastries in it rarely has a dull moment. He's always bringing the fun and jokes no matter which of CS's 3 squads he's with, or even with members outside of CS. Pastries has been a great resource to introduce newer members to multiple squads and broaden their KSI horizons. He's always down for a good time and to play some games. Pastries was also a huge help with Turkey Bowl and generating votes for CS to take a the #1 spot in the Forums Poll. KSI's oldest member still has a few tricks up his sleeve. Dept Member KSI @Bane 7 - AAP Bane has been a big help with AAP this month and making sure that everything gets done. He's always following up and a triple checking that everything was completed on time or ahead of schedule. What a legend.

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DC 77, Chief Knowledge Officer Link to forums account - @KSI DC 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - This man is everywhere! From Clan Ops, AAP, Education, LC, his board position...I'm still in awe of how he does it all, but he does. He continues to show just how much he cares about this community each and every day, and we're all better for it as a result. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Slick 7, Director CS Link to forums account - @KSI Slick 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - So Ol' Slick is no longer the FNG, as he's been around us for a bit now. The man is a workhorse, I can tell ya that much. 60+ hours a week AND he still has time for KSI. I mean, he'll jump in a 7s and Gens meeting while he's driving home from a long day, and still have enthusiasm for the topics at hand, and it's honestly contagious. I really appreciate how he levels with us and helps us work through situations as they arise, and I look forward to continuing to work together throughout our KSI careers. Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - I lost a bet, so here we are. Kidding! Uppish is an absolute pleasure to work with. Yes, I said Uppish lol. He's not only a great friend, but an amazing superior/co-worker. When it's time to handle business, it gets handled, and when it's time to goof off, there's plenty of good times to be had. He continues to shine as a Div Lead, role model, mentor and confidant to everyone in CS. This past month is no exception. Coming off of any annual event can be a bit slow, but with Uppish at the helm, everything made it back up to speed in no time. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Fenny 77 Link to forums account - @Fennyishere Reasoning why they deserve this - Fenny is really great at being the comedic relief that everyone needs, but I feel she sells herself short sometimes. Her IRL responsibilities are pretty gnarly between college and everything else, but she still shows up ready to work and handle business. She cares about this community, this division, and leaves a lasting impression on anyone that has the pleasure to interact with her. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI MercX Link to forums account - @KSI MercX Reasoning why they deserve this - Merc is the man, hands down. I wish all officers in KSI could sit in on one of his officer meetings, and listen to how efficient, detailed, and structured that it's ran. There's a reason Wrath is as amazing as it is, and this man is it. He's at the helm, leading from the front, taking charge and building up those around him. It brings me great pleasure to know that one day I'll be out of a job, because he's so gosh dang awesome at his. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI KingdomX Link to forums account - @KSI KingdomX Reasoning why they deserve this - It's been a real treat watching this guy climb up the ranks. You'd never know that he was shy when he first came into KSI lol. Now look at ya! He's a powerhouse in his own right, and becomes better and better every day. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Infid3l Link to forums account - @KSI Infid3l Reasoning why they deserve this - Infid3l really came back strong this month, and it's great to see. Between recruits, training, mentoring...he's an absolute beast! He's really proving that he's capable of being a great CPT and even more. Keep it up! SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Walrus Link to forums account - @KSI Walrus Reasoning why they deserve this - Walrus has really been thriving as a new officer, and shines through a perfect example of what you're looking for when moving up a SGT into the officer ranks. He does his job and then some, and I'm looking forward to how far he'll climb throughout his career within KSI.

Senior Leader: Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Kakashii 77Link to forums account - @Kakashii 77Reasoning why they deserve this - Being the former CSO of the community, I personally can understand and account for the amount of work it takes to organize the leadership council, communicate with members, fulfill an active board position, and still be constantly looking for new ways to improve the community and ensure longevity in the process...and I only did a tenth of what this man does lol. Kakashii's ability to provoke thought amongst members, lead several different directives simultaneously, and still be a highly requested graphics artist on top of this is absolutely ridiculous in itself before you realize he adds into this a 60 hour work week. KSI could not have chosen a better member to fulfill this position and use it properly and I just wanted to thank you personally in a public space for your dedication and work ethic. #AnbuBaby Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xKing 77Link to forums account - @KSI xKing 77Reasoning why they deserve this - King constantly likes to put himself down and say that he doesn't do enough or "disappears" often. Id like to take a minute to let him know that that is false and he does more than he will ever know. Hydra has recently been on the second wave of its glow up and this wouldn't at all be possible if not for all of the behind the scenes work King has done for this squad while we continue to grow. His presence is constantly felt, our members are ecstatic when he jumps in the party, he is constantly there when I need anything to ensure Hydras growth or happiness and he is swift to offer advice that is not only helpful, but needed. It'll be a sad day when he returns to just bein CEO of the community but in the meantime all of Hydra is appreciating his commitment and dedication to our happiness and success so thank you homie. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIMommaBear (CPT - ES/Hydra)Link to forums account - @KSIMommaBearReasoning why they deserve this - I cant find the words to properly convey my appreciation and pride in having this young lady as the Captain of my squad. Mommabear is just that, a momma bear not just for her family but for our entire squad. She is always the first person saying good morning in the chats, she is always the first person with the welcome message for new members, and always the first pair of open arms people run to when they have a bad day. She is a beacon of light and love for this squad and its no wonder why when she hops online, there is no room in her parties as people just flock to her. She has come such a long way in her KSI career and continues to impress with her knowledge, drive, and passion to make HYdra the best squad in the community. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Bane 7 (LT - ES/Hydra)Link to forums account - @Bane 7Reasoning why they deserve this - When I first found out that Bane would be transferring into the same squad I was rejoining a couple months back, my first thought was "Ah s***" because I knew I would be in for a lot of headaches...but even more fun lol. Bane is easily one of the goofiest comedy based members Ive ever encountered in KSI but watching him use that to make members smile, to make their days better, and to get everyone riled up is a blessing. He truly is a man of the people and even while goofing off, is constantly observant of the people around him and their needs. When he decides to get serious, he utilizes his 5+ years of community experience to navigate and solve any issues that arise and is a constant resource for the members of Hydra when they have questions. He is outrageously generous, frequently doing raffles and give aways for the members of Hydra just to make people feel good and generate activity. Im proud to call him a great officer and a great friend as well. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Jewels (LT - ES/Hydra)Link to forums account - @KSI JewelsReasoning why they deserve this - When I think about Jewels entrance and impact on Hydra it be equivalent to throwing a bench player in whose unheard of thinking that theyd do their job and thats it, and they end up blowing out the game and starting the day after. Jewels came into Hydra quietly but after she got comfortable instantly transformed into a monster officer. Her keen eye in making sure the stats were cleaned up, appearing at anytime to make sure promotions were being completed, constantly asking questions, and always looking for ways to improve the squad. She has a very easy calming spirit that drew our members to her quickly and she is excelling at everything she puts her mind to. She has been a phenomenal addition to to Hydra and our officer staff. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Evanbop (SGT - ES/Hydra)Link to forums account - @KSI EvanbopReasoning why they deserve this - Its not too often that you find that rare gem of a recruit that comes in and is absolutely thirsty for KSI knowledge, driven to get involved, is an amazing person, and truly understands the most important part of what it takes to be an officer. This young man never seems to be out of statements that amaze me and demonstrate his level of maturity and leve;-headedness. He is a shining example that you dont need to be an officer to create happiness and drive a squad forward and its an honor to watch him complete his PO training knowing that Ill have the fortune of being his General. Proud of you Evan, keep working Hard!

Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Swag 77 (BoD/COS) Link to forums account - @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Swag's involvement in the community this past month is the most activity and energy i've seen in a leader ESPECIALLY being on the board in my one and a half year in this community. From dealing with community wide issues to helping divisions in need to even giving advice to CPTs and squad leadership this man does it all. Though I can only say so much from my experience I have seen swag kept the energy and momentum in the divisions he is over. I'm excited to see the future of KSI with his leadership. His advice is always top tier and has a Just Do It attitude that about KSI Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 (CS/DIV LEADER) Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Uppish has really become more openminded and involved in his division in this past month and its been fun and interesting to see his attitude about leadership change. Even if he isn't over that squad he is still watching over to help double check 'things and make sure things are running smoothly. I'm excited to see how his leadership will shape CS in the future General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why the deserve this - It has been amazing to see how quickly this man has adapted to the role of General in this past month alone. In the beginning of the split he was thrown a group of members with a few trouble maker members that threw him into some situation that he handled with properly and swiftly. He's come a long way from the RCT i knew him as, and his leadership skills have benefited the division with the success of his new squad along with the teamwork of his officer core Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iChief Link to forums account - @Chieffy Reasoning why they deserve this - Over the past month chief's activity in the squad has increased a lot and has been more consistent in trying to meet all the members in the squad as well as attending meetings. He shows his passion for his squad in everything he does and keeps it 100% real LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Kanao 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Kanao 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Over the last month Kanao has gone above and beyond her role of a LT. Even with being a newly transferred member in Doom she didn't lose her motivation and picked up where she last off in her clan ops career. From spending time with members to hosting workshops and even trying to be an ear for members in distress she has done it all. I hope to see her motivation and drive continue in her future endeavors. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI iqz Link to forums account - @KSI iqz Reasoning why they deserve this - I love seeing the drive this member has when it comes to wanting to do officer duties and recruit. He is always seeking new knowledge whether it be from old leaders to new. I hope to see that drive continue as he goes up the clan ops ladder, and become a jack of all trades. Forum Staff (ADMIN/MODS/DEPARTMENT HEADS) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Venum 7 Link to forums account - @Chad 2 Badd Reasoning why they deserve this - Even though this member may be in a clan ops squad he still takes any time he can get to give notes on anything new that may be happening on the forums. He is active in problem solving and I can tell he cares a lot about this community through his work ethic. If I ever have a problem he is quick to respond and is always open to suggestions Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tripped Link to forums account - @KSI Tripped Reasoning why they deserve this - I love seeing this member's activity on forums as well as discord. Never is afraid to ask questions or even bring up suggestions. He is consistent in his efforts in Dept. ops and i hope to see that drive continue.

Pulling from a previous post i made - The man has accomplished so much during his time here in KSI. I watched this man grow from the wee little Sgt in Knights, to a powerhouse recruiter, absolutely stunned me at how good he was at recruiting. I watched him climb the ranks as an officer, always staying on top of his duties, never missing a beat. I had the privalege to work beside him as a fellow CoFo in SL. DC is the kinda guy who will always have your back and will always be there for you. Fast forward to the present, and this man has made it all the way to Head of Education! Hes using all his skills hes learned to project that onto the members coming up in the next generation. He pours his heart and sould into Education for KSI. KSI is prospering thanks to member like KSI DC 7. ------------------ on a side note, the man walked into uncharted waters as the Head of Education. Its not an easy job for anyone to take on. But time and time again, DC has shown us we chose the right man for the job. His perseverance, ingenuity, and commitment to the members of KSI is top tier. Even with all of this going on he still is boots on the ground in CS as an officer. Not very many of us are as Die Hard as DC. Without a doubt in my mind, he deserves this award. My hats off to you sir.

Gamertag: KSI DC 7 forums: @KSI DC 7 award: OS3 evidence: Since I've joined KSI about 5 months ago DC has put his heart and soul into KSI. His dedicated hasn't been solely focused on himself or his division but KSI as a whole. This man, goes into other divisions helps train potential officers, officers and recruit new members. DC doesn't care if you're the lowest ranking member or the highest ranking member, he makes time and effort to hang out with you. DC has been in KSI for over a little of a year and half now. His Accomplishments, he was Co-Founder of SL then business transferred to WD to help in a time of need. He's also Head of Education, LC Ambassador, Senior Staff in News, and Former APP Co-Head.

Gamertag: KSI BLITZ11 Link to Forums: @KSI Blitz11 Award: Outstanding Service Lvl 1 Reason/Evidence: I have known Blitz since he rejoined awhile back. He started off in Elysium DW while I was the Co-Founder over the squad. He was always a go-getter. Needed something done? He was the first to take charge and do it. Blitz busted his ass and worked his way all the way up to CPT, in DW. While a CPT, he was one of the most influential people in the squad. He was always in parties with members when he was available and showed up to almost every gamenight and meeting. He was always prepared and ready to lead by example. When DW merged into SL and WD, Elysium went to SL. In SL, we had a dropoff of members due to the transfer. But Blitz was a key in getting those members back and into the new squad club and squad tag. He helped pave the way for the rest of the officer’s in the staff, his hard work and effort warranted his soon General promotion. Throughout his time in KSI, he has been a member of AAP and the Join Staff. In AAP, he was always readily available to post on nominations and help the newer staff members learn. He was a leader here, although the rank wasn’t there. In the Join Area, he hit the ground running. He ran many applications and ran them nearly flawless. Pushing him to his promotion to Senior Join Mod. After excelling in making the Join Area a more cohesive and efficient unit, he was then promoted to Forums Moderator. As a Forums Moderator, Blitz has been overseeing the Join Area and has been very hands on with the Join Mods and Senior Join Mods to ensure the area runs smoothly. He is willing to help out when and where needed, which is a great leadership trait to have. Blitz is a bright spot in this Community and utilizes all of his assets to ensure that he is leading by example and providing a safe and positive gaming environment here. Keep doing your thing man.

If anyone were to deserve this award DC is the man. To start off with my experience in SL, Elysium transferred over from DW and when DC became our CoFo and raising up the ranks he was a great mentor to me as a SSGT/LT helping me learn a lot of the skills which I definitely benefited from when becoming gen. If he wasn't in a party mentoring or training someone he was usually recruiting or gaming with members making sure everyone was being reached and this is as a CoFo. DC was and still is a powerhouse recruiter, I feel as though he doesn't know moderation because when he recruits you can see him pulling whole 4-5 man lobbies IN LESS THAN AN HOUR. DC would go out of his way to help squad growth and member retain even if he didn't have to do it just because he wanted to make sure the squad was prospering. Of course things came up and DC business transferred to keep WD stay float and make sure it wouldn't shut down. DC doesn't just think on a division or squad level, but on a community wide level and that's what makes him so deserving of this award. While being a CoFo in Clan Ops he was also pursuing a position in Education as the new Head. He is always working on a new guide or workshop that will benefit the whole community and not to forget training up the new generation of mentors and assistants. He use to also be the Co-Head of AAP, stepping in and helping the award all the awards once the awards system finally fixed itself back in late 2020 and not to mention him being super helpful when it comes to answering questions about the awards system or just about anything KSI related. You can go to DC with the stupidest questions and he wouldn't judge you but will instead teach you everything you need to know about the topic in question. He's a great mentor and an even better leader and that's why i can say he deserves this award.

DC.. I've honestly never heard of the guy sorry. But on a real note, DC is a very hard working individual. When he first transferred over to WD was when I really got to know him. He is passionate about this community and is pretty much willing to do anything he can to keep things a float. I really got to work with DC when I was on the hunt for a new Education Head. We talked almost everyday about Education, what we wanted to see done, the direction it was gonna go in, the potential Information team we wanted to add in and so much more. He's a guy that I put all my faith in and he didn't disappoint. He took Education and added so much to it, built the info team and has great mentors. The vision that this man has for Edu in 2021 is gonna be epic and I'm glad I get to work along side him on his journey. Can definitely say if DC keeps working at his pace and doing whats needed for the community this man is future Hall of Famer and for sure gonna go down as one of the greats. Thank you for all you do.

I GUESS I'll witness for DC.... :p DC is a member who without a doubt has been die hard for this community. I remember hearing rumblings of an awesome new SGT that was recruited into my squad. And BOOM we had one of the best recruiters KSI has ever seen. Through his time climbing the ranks DC has always poured his heart and soul into everything he does. Recruiting, training, mentoring, and promoting, he can be trusted with taking care of it all. His recent adventures as the HOE (head of education) of KSI, has really allowed to DC to spread his wings, and spread his passion and knowledge onto so many other KSI members. He hit the ground running with education, tackling a whole mess of issues with KSI's education program. As for his presence in the LC, DC regularly meets with me to discuss future plans and goals for KSI, and is very outspoken at our bi-weekly meetings. He is an absolute pleasure to have on my team. keep on, keepin on DC.

I can witness for KSI DC 7. When I was part of productions team (about 3/4ths of the way through 2020) I was streaming an event for KSI. Depression was hitting me real hard that week so I wasn’t myself during the stream. DC 7 ended up joining the stream and completely turned the stream around. He started talking about the match that was happening, kept asking my opinion and got me to talk even when I was in a low place!! It’s stuff like this that you never forget!! I agree with everyone else. KSI DC 7 deserves this award!!

I’ve known DCrunk for sometime now. And I can witness to his remarkable outstanding service he’s provided KSI with. Dc was a stand up general in SL in which even though I wasn’t in his squad I knew of him as a dude who would help anyone at any time. As he grew and became a cofounder he soon was placed over my squad Templar. He was super hands on which some didn’t take well but he truly only meant the best and had the best intent in helping and mentoring making sure every officer knew their duties inside and out and made sure everyone was proficient in there duties as well. Dc was always down to help in anyway possible. He soon left SL a few months later to help out another Div. since then DC has never stopped. He is now Head of education on top of many other responsibilities he has. I’ve had the pleasure and honor of working with this guy many many times in my tenure of KSI. The guys accomplished many milestones in KSI and is ALWAYS looking for ways to improve things from the ground up. He’s always pushing for a better and brighter tomorrow for the community as a whole as well. He deserves OS3 with out a doubt.

He took me under his wing and showed me what it was like to be a good leader. He pushed me to do better, to get past my insecurities and do what needed to be done to have a successful squad.

It seemed as if she popped up out of thin air already sprinting towards the top. This is when I think she made the biggest impact and why she has so many people who are willing to follow her lead. She is very personable and party hops regularly to keep up with everyone. She has done so much for KSI and deserves recognition for her accomplishments. SSGT: Gamertag: KSI Aaronson Forums Account Link / @: @KSI Aaronson Reasons they deserve this award: Aaronson is an amazing officer, as a SSGT he plowed through his duties and has had amazing determination to do well for Templar. He has continued member retention within the squad and many members appreciate his efforts to help recruits and new people to KSI.

Senior leader Kakashii 77 @Kakashii 77 Throughout this whole year this man has literally done so much for the community he previously stepped down from co founder then went up the chain of command again to become a gen of prestige and later co founder to soon become and develop the leadership council as we know it today he is constantly improving this community in anyway he can never seen anyone put as much blood and sweat into KSI as this man does he truest loves this community and is always looking for ways to improve it with any way he can .

Even transferred divisions to help out another division this man is by far great Gen KSI Newera @KSI N3WERA 7 what to say about Newera from the time I met him he has always looked for improving the officers and KSI as a whole he always held his officers to a higher standard and that’s something I’ve always appreciated as a gen this man has stepped up the game for other gens and overall has inspired me when I become a gen LT Athena @KSI xATHENAx Athena as soon as she joined she has been the power house of prestige I recruited her and taught we her how to recruit and ever since she has recruited a lot done game nights all the time does workshops often and even is basically running the squad she has skyrocketed in the little time she has been in.

Category: Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Joe 7 Forums Account Link @KSI Joe 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Joe has been a powerhouse this year, and part of the glue that binds DM together. This year has certainly been one for the record books with the amount of ups and downs, and twists and turns. Joe never allowed that to get the best of him, at least not in front of any of us. He's taken his position as Division Leader and ran with it. The ship very well could've sank this year, and DM wouldn't exist, but Joe took the helm and guided us in the right direction. Morale has increased tenfold, recruits are coming in left and right, member retention has been fantastic, and for the first time in a good long while there's transparency between the squads, members and officers alike. The man is a miracle worker, and deserves a KSI sainthood if you ask me lol. I'm kidding, Joe...kinda. Seriously though, Joe is phenomenal at anything he does, and being a Division Leader is no exception. Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI DntAsk 7 Forums Account Link @KSI DntAsk 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Speaking of sainthood, I'm pretty this awesome lady already is one. She certainly has the patience of one lol. Pam is another part of the glue that binds DM together. She is on top of everything. Her attention to detail, ability to retain members, actively listen to what's going on, and be there as a mentor to everyone in DM is really second to none. It's like she and Joe are cut from the same cloth, and DM won the jackpot of awesomeness with both of them. Category: General Gamertag: KSI Lilith 7 Forums Account Link @KSI Lilith 7 Reasons they deserve this award: Lilith is a true pleasure to work with. She's always happy to be around members, and her attention to everything related to a squad is pretty amazing to witness. She has everything down to a T, and things just go smooth. As general, she was very effective at retaining members, bringing in fresh recruits, and staying on top of daily tasks such as promotions. When her squad basically doubled overnight, she didn't let it shake her. She's always calm, cool, and collected. That being said, her promotion to DM's newest Co-Founder made all the sense in the world. Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI T StackG Forums Account Link @KSI T StackG Reasons they deserve this award: This man right here is sus. I'm kidding! Stack is an absolute beast. Just check the stat chats lol. Recruiting, promoting, member retention, being there as a friend and mentor...there's nothing he can't do, and he doesn't allow room for complacency. If you're messing up, he'll be the first one to tell you, but he'll also guide you on how to fix it. He's a firm believer that we grow stronger together, and will never leave a person behind if he can help it. He may be tough, but he's also fair, and that makes for a great leader.
