There is no doubt in my mind she is one of the best GEN KSI has even seen. She always pushes her officers to do their best and always encourages other members. I haven't known her long but her energy and passion for WD is felt through all the members in Vanquish as well as the rest of the division.

Napster never lets anyone down with it comes to training or just hanging out with members. I've seen him move of the ranks when I came back into KSI, he is easy to talk to about any; KSI related or just personal issues. Napster has been working with a lot of the new POs in his squad to build up that officer core and still maintain his real life responsibilities. He is always giving back to his squad and community!

  5. 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.

  7. 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. You constantly see him joining different parties and just vibing out. He is always up beat and willing to play nearly any game and if he isnt playing he is just fun to hang with. He ensures everyone is enjoying themselves and is always willing to help

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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!

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.

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.

  13. 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. I have noticed him to be often active, interacting with many WD members, no matter the rank, new or old. He is always welcoming and always make others feel involved and invited. 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.

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.

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.

  15. 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.

Along with the multitude of other things he does around the community, he takes time to speak and play with various members around the community and makes himself available to handle any issue that arises. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - KSI Uppish 7 has done nothing but mentor me and help each squad in CS grow to their maximum potential here in KSI. This dude just received his promotion to Division Leader and it was a long time coming. He has turned out 2 new co-fo's and is looking to turn out more! CS would not be the success story it is without this guy's leadership and mentorship! General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Shatner 7 Link to forums account - @KSIShatner 7 Reasoning why the deserve this - KSI Shatner 7 has been instrumental in growing Wrath since they transferred from DM. He flipped what could have been considered a dying squad into a squad that looks like it could split in the near future with continued love and dedication! I am glad to be able to call this man a mentor and a friend as he has helped me in my early months of being a general more times than I can count. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sleepy Link to forums account - @Sleepy Reasoning why they deserve this - This dude is my right hand and I am so glad I got to bring him to Calamity during the split from Doom. He continues to show that he is performing on all cylinders at his capacity and is eager for more! I am still amazed that he is 10 years younger than me with the level of maturity he shows in important situations. His maturity has certainly evolved to a high leadership capability capacity. I cannot wait to see what this guy can do as a general! SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Anarchy Link to forums account - @KSI Anrchie Reasoning why they deserve this - KSI Anarchy has been excelling at his rank of SSGT and is ready to move up to LT.

  18. OS-1 for @KSI HEFNER, this guy, him and I go back to the days of Samurai, when he was rising in the ranks as I was Captain, he was a great officer during those times, took up roles when we were short on officers, he stepped up the best way he could. He understands the fundamentals of this community. He stuck through the hardships during the changing of KSI. After I left. We kept in touch every now and then. And he would tell me how things were going. And I knew that he was a dedicated member of KSI. He is amazing in gaming parties. He does his best to include everyone. And handles situations in a professional manner. Also, does his best to be level headed, and unbiased in situations. I am proud of where he is today in KSI, he surely deserves it.

  19. I have come witness @KSI HEFNEROS-1 award reason being is he has been pushing Fallen the right path and making sure the officers, potential officers, and the members are keeping in tact! I’m going to say this he truly doesn’t leave any member behind. By going into parties to going into casual chats and our own fallen squad chats. I been a LT for a while now and I have seen he just do a great job! When I was a captain in Samurai and seeing @KSI HEFNERpushing through I know he will go very far. Even though Samurai didn’t make it he still stepped up and tried to keep it going! Then once in Carnage did the same thing keep it going to the end! But when Fallen came for our super squad it was all hands on deck! Theirs so much love for this guy and he has helped me to become an officer again! This man truely deserves the award! P.S Happy Birthday @KSI HEFNER

  20. I am privileged to have the opportunity to witness on this nomination. Where do I begin.. turn back time to Samurai although I was not in WD I was aware of some of what was going on. As Hefner would come to me on occasion with questions whilst I was gen of Hydra seeking knowledge from wherever he could get it. Hefner is one of those few that are self driven not afraid to ask questions. He works hard to provide the best experience for his members. His dedication to his squad and officers is something to be admired. He helped take all the squads of WD to form Fallen then helped to direct the officers from each squad as they formed the core of officers for fallen and helped them come together as a unit. I have watched and assisted where needed as he trained his officers new potential officers and kept the members engaged throughout the transition. He did not let the size of the squad intimidate him he saw it as a challenge to over come. If you pay attention often Hefner is the quiet guy in the party listening to his members and helping them figure out what they need. I have watched him help new members form connections with the squad to become like family. Hefner is the example of what an officer in KSI should strive to be, his dedication, his strength and integrity the core values of this community are a part of who he is not what he does and there is a difference if you pay attention. His flexibility to roll with the punches and turn the punches into success is to be commended. I cannot think of anyone at this moment in time who I feel deserves an OS nomination more. So please @KSI HEFNERknow that we appreciate what you do every day I know the late nite hours you put in and that you set aside so much time for this community. Thank you for all you do, all that you will do in the future for so long as you will have us as a community we will gladly keep you as you are the heart of your squad without you I am sure Fallen would not be what it is today.

  21. Profile: https://www.ksiforums.org/profile/52184-ksi-wldmama7/ Nomination for Multiple Service and recognition awards: OS lvl 2-3 Reason: Frankly putting it, People don't realize just how much this woman bends over backwards trying to do her damm best to help KSI as a whole....not just her own division and members.....shes gotten several people thru some pretty rough times in their squads and supports people without them needing to ask, practically rebuilt ES from the ground up, has managed to get several people who had retired to be active and social (myself included) and when I say this i damm well mean it...I set my standards a hell of alot higher than most people do when it comes to nominating people for awards. So the fact I am acknowledging if somebody deserves these awards, so without bypassing filters when i say...the fact she hasnt been nominated for them is a God damm crime in itself....so get the posts flowing showing this woman just how many people shes gotten thru and how many times over the respect she deserves

  22. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Swag 77 KSI Chief of Staff Link to forums account - @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Swag and his pickles man. Regardless of that, Swag has always been an awesome person to hang around and talk to. Since just joining two months ago, I've seen swag in our party's or just checking up on his members whenever he can all around. He's a busy man and does his best for his crew, and I believe his time and efforts should be heard. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Rizz 7 CS Chief Knowledge Officer/ Acting CS Division Leader Link to forums account - @Rizz 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - I have only just begun talking and working with Rizz, and I can say what drive he has for this community. His notes span farther then my hand could even begin to type and I appreciate him for his wisdom and the time he takes for mentoring others. I wanted to personally thank him here for everything he has taught me so far and for everyone he has helped . He for sure deserves this award Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sub 7 Oblvion CS Link to forums account - @KSI Sub 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Sub ... his integrity and his direct involvement in all the he can, inspires me to do so much more and I thank him so much for getting me here. He has made sure I've been alright close to everyday I have met him. He checks in always and we even have to tell him to sometimes take a break and let us help! That's the outstanding ovation that I strive for and try to be. We need someone like him always. I appreciate him for all that he has done for every department and every member . Even as a Hall Of Fame KSI member this man deserves this award Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Nezuko Oblivion CS Link to forums account - @KSI Nezuko Reasoning why they deserve this - I can always go to Nez when I need a question answered , or a reference point, I've always seen Nez involved in whatever he can get his hands onto and his introduction to productions is a humble and welcome one . He deserves this award . Admins/Senior Mods/Department Heads/Senior Forums Staff Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIxAsuma 77 ES SGT Head of Productions ES Valkyrie Link to forums account - @KSIxAsuma 77 ^ I hope that stays that way Reasoning why they deserve this - We all know Asuma. While just getting started into productions, he brought me in with open arms and taught me things I've been dreaming of doing since I was a teenager. This man has stayed up countless hours for just us productions members to understand the software we are using, and I know is STILL looking for more ways for us members in productions to assist and learn. Ever since I met him I have been eager to learn more and more from him. He puts time and work into the people that really want to do this and I appreciate that . That is why he deserves this award.

  23. Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Tea 7 CDM BoD Link to forums account - @KSI Tea 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Plain and simple Tea is freaking amazing. She’s also under valued throughout the community, which is seriously a damned shame. The amount of work that Tea puts into Departments to make sure EVERYTHING runs as smoothly as possible is ridiculous. This woman is EVERYWHERE. When issues arise, she fixes them, when we need something pushed out, she pushes them. When we have ideas, she makes them happen while expanding on it to make it 10 times better. Tea has got to be the absolute best CDM KSI has had since the Scotland era (IYKYK), hands down. Her amount of love for all of us brats is never ending, even if we irritate the ever loving hell out of her. She’s always here for the members, and for that, I will forever be grateful. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI StarFire, Abaddon/WD GEN Link to forums account - @KSI StarFire Reasoning why the deserve this - Not to sound ridiculous, but Star is Star studded. She is the epitome of what a General should be within the community. She is loving, caring, and dependable, while still being able to be a hardass. She’s always putting in the OT with her squad and staff. She’s conquered mountains and obstacles that have been thrown in her way when it comes to staff, or a lack thereof. Shes honestly why Abaddon works so blasted well. The time and effort she puts in, while being a full time college student, and a stay at home mom, is unreal. There’s never a moment that I have to worry about anything really dealing with her squad, because I know 99.999999999% of the time, she’s already got it handled. Did I mention she’s stupidly smart too? This woman can train with the best of them. She’s just all around, well, phenomenal. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xSmitty, Carnage/WD CPT Link to forums account - @KSI xSmitty Reasoning why they deserve this - Holy flippin bad mitten grandma where do I start? Smitty is why, when it comes to Carnage, this squad is still open. Plain and simple. His love for our members, and this community vies mine. He’s stubborn, hard headed, and doesn’t take no for an answer. And he loves a challenge…. (Who does this sound like?????) Smit rejoined KSI back in Jan of 23. Ever since, he’s been like Speed Racer within WD. He trains, he hosts stuff, he trains some more. He pulls morale to a high I havent seen in Carnage since before they came over here from SL and rebranded. He’s always thinking outside of the box too. We try to make WD a well rounded Division, to do that, you need to incorporate everyone, and he does just that. He reaches out to other squads and gets them involved in whatever shenanigans we have going on at that point in time. I could honestly write a small novella about why Smitty deserves this award, and much much more, but I’ll save the space for someone else to do it. Just know, he will be a force to be reckoned with within KSI. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI JaxyBoi, Vanquish/WD LT Link to forums account - @KSI JaxyBoi Reasoning why they deserve this - Jaxy is an amazement. To see where he came from to what he is now, and to know I had a huge hand in it, utterly amazes me. I have watched this man grow and flourish within the community, and have loved every waking minute of it. Jax loves his squad, and it shows in everything he does. He never backs down or says he doesn’t have time. He will ALWAYS make the time for these guys. He has a huge following of respect from his members, which is why he continues to drive and show a dedication that honestly brings a smile to my face. Jax is knowledgeable, and it shows in his training sessions. He’s got a wicked sense of humor, and can make the tightest lipped person smile on the gloomiest of days. He is a big reason why Vanquish still works well, and I’m hella proud of what he continues to do. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Rouge 77, Carnage/WD SSGT Link to forums account - @KSI Rogue 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Rogue, she's a special kind of staff member. To be honest, she didn't even want to really be on the staff. But alas, help was needed and she stepped up to the plate. Rogue is a quiet closed off kind of person. It takes a lot to break through that turtle tough style shell. She did it though! In the time she's been here, she's become an outgoing, loving person who just wants what's best for Carnage. Whether that be someone to hangout with on crappy Among Us, or we need a PO trained, she's right there. Rogue has been a hella good help with everyone, and keeps the staff together and on their toes. I love what she's done, and she absolutely has a bright future within WD. SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI BLITZ11, Carnage /WD SSGT Link to forums account - @KSI Blitz11 Reasoning why they deserve this - Man, Blitz is all over the place. Between Web and Clan Ops this man is NON-FREAKING-STOP. I swear he NEVER slows down. Even before he hit the staff, he was exceptionally helpful to Carnage. No matter the situation, Blitz is ALWAYS willing to help. He's working 60+ hours a week, STILL hosts gamenights, actively recruits, runs the join/rejoin section, and does whatever we need him to do. Honestly, I'm really happy he's back to what he does best, even if he's already got a full plate. He's an asset to the Carnage staff, and WD as a whole and absolutely deserves this award. Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Assualt1, Carnage/WD, SGT Link to forums account - @assaultman1 Reasoning why they deserve this - Oh man, Assault is such a sweetheart. Whenever he is on, he doesn't hesitate to jump into a party with any member. He's always cheery and outgoing, and definitely can bring a smile to your face. He doesn't mind hopping off whatever he's playing to come and hang out with the squad either, which is a fantastic trait to have. He's also exceptionally helpful to the staff. Primo example right here. During Spring Break we have the infamous Forums Challenge. This man was in the thick of it with the staff pulling members in the party jumping around to remind and take members through how to vote and post for everything. He obviously didn't have to do this, but his love for Carnage pushed him to go above and beyond to help and make sure that we got the votes. He is a huge asset to Carnage, and WD, and we are very thankful to have him. Admins/Senior Mods/Department Heads/Senior Forums Staff Gamertag (Rank - Area) - KSI Path 7, Discord Mod Link to forums account - @KSI Path 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - It's really hard to talk about a discord mod because people don't see what they really do for our community. Path is a huge asset to KSI, and does a whole lot of work behind the scenes. He's a General in WD, the LC Administrative guy, and a Senior Discord Mod, while also working full time, and being a father and husband. All of these things together doesn't stop him from being damned good at what he does. When it comes to the discord side of things, being a past IT guy in the military helps. He's RIDICULOUSLY smart with the program, and is always available.It Doesn't matter if he's in the middle of anything either, he's always at our beck and call. He's taken several of our servers to a new level and has some amazing ideas for future usage. I know that many people in KSI don't get to see the work that Path does like some of us do, but he is valuable in all aspects. Without him, I dare say many things wouldn't work correctly or at least get fixed as quickly as possible, insert the Annual Event server. Thank you for what you do around here Pathy.

  24. Gamertag: KSI Sub 7 Link to Forums Account: @KSI Sub 7 Award: Outstanding Service Lv 1 Reasoning: For the amount of time this member has been around the community even at an officer level I am surprised this has not been applied for up until me considdering the amount of work he puts in daily to ALL areas of KSI. This member has climbed the ranks withing clan ops to help build squads and stop them from going under so much so that he then div transfers to stop another squad going under much like the KSI version of Mary Poppins, he goes where needed and he has always proved himself invaluable. But I can only talk lightly on that, where I can offer a little more depth is in my department and this is where I have seen him really go above the call and EARN his stripes, even before I called him up to join the rank of senior AAP staff member he would be ultra active in the chats and making sure work was moving and if he didn't have the answer to something he would ensure he got the answer only to apply it to his ever growing guide to AAP. Sub has been within the department for a long time now and is known, when I say known I mean every single person who should know him KNOWS him and I'm sure when they hear that brash butchering of the Queens English accent enter parties they sigh because he is always around non stop- just joking but it's been a while since I see someone who dedicates this much of their time to KSI as he is always party hopping making sure members are active and hosting gamenights multiple times a week for his squad and squads and divs he isnt even part of. Sub has been my right hand for the department even while being part of other departments as well and since I have implemented certain things within this department Sub has ensured that they remain in place and the standard has been consistently enforced all the while making the department a fun place to be such as the buddy system with seniors delivering a standardised level of training across the board, now as CoHead he is shining more so as a leader and has earned that '7' that adorns his GT and every now and again having to post a 'dunce selfie' because he can be a twat lol. Like a well travelled person Sub also boasts a multitude of service and recognition awards on his forums profile that he has earned through hard work and dedication such as Influencer, People Magnet, Committed, Dedicated, T&E OTM & SGT OTM + many more (not as many as me as I have the mostest hahaha) Sub deserves this OS1 if not OS2 as well but I will provide witnesses. Many thanks AAP.

  25. Witness- I have known Sub since before I joined KSI. He is an integral part of the reason I decided to Join this wonderful community. When I considered becoming an officer he was available and answered my questions with patience and understanding. Sub knows his stuff and what he didnt know how to answer he found out the answer. Sub helped to train me in the begining and helped guide me when I had ideas to help our squad. Quite honestly if it wasnt for him I am not sure if I would have continued as an officer in the begining as I seemed to end up dealing with drama situations despite trying to avoid them. His dedication to this community as whole is above and beyond whats expected. KSI means more to him than just a community KSI has become apart of his family. @KSI Sub 7 I was so proud of you when I saw you had finally earned your 7. Sub lives and breathes our core values he has been through the ups and downs of Clan ops and almost every department we have in our community and has been assest to everyone he encounters. Well done @KSI Sub 7 Well done indeed

  26. Dropping vote to witness: Since coming over to CS, Sub has always been a guy that members can count on being there for them. Pointing them in the right direction, hanging out and gaming, and doing whatever it takes to find the answers to their questions when he doesn't have it right off hand. He's on top of his game with retention and integrating with members, even if they're not in his own squad. He's well known throughout the Division, as well as the community, and truly exemplifies what we stand for. Without people like Sub, this community wouldn't continue to make the strides that it does in working towards positive growth. It's an honor and privilege to work with him, and see the efforts he puts in every single day!

His first month as a cofo. Dude has been doing a great job. From always being in parties for anyone to come chat with him. To providing info. He has adapted to being a cofo well. Given the first month is typically the make it or break it time for adapting to new duties. Nyquil has been like cast iron Settling down in place. Being a part of multiple departments.

  29. Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Swag 77 COS/WD Carnage Acting GEN Link to forums account - @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Swag, I can say so much about this pickle loving person and cheesing smelling ass. Jokes aside, I have a lot of respect for Swag, this man is so involved with this community it is unreal. My squad, Carnage we have no GEN, well Poop all of WD has no 7s Staff. Swag has come to help not just Carnage but all of WD, I've always known Swag. Ive heard of all the things he has done in the past but have never seen it. Once he come into my squad and made a huge change, he provided support to the officer core, giving advice when needed and pushing us to be our best. He has been pasting his knowledge down to us and making us better as leaders and people. I couldn't be happier to call him my GEN and the COS of KSI. All of the good he has being doing for Carnage has shown me why he does deserve COS and one of the most active people in KSI. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7 WD Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Here we go again with this man, Uppish has become one of our foundations within WD. He has come into to this divisions and has been doing nothing but helping this Division to be the best! He was over my squad at one point, but has only ever done good for Carnage but also all of WD. Uppish has brought in many different ideas from CS or even just helping us bring new or even better ideas to help WD! General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Starfire WD Abaddon Link to forums account - @KSI StarFire Reasoning why the deserve this - Well there is not much I can say personally about this person but the things I have seem this power women do, it always amazes me! Starfire has recently become the GEN of Abaddon with the recent split but she is always pushing for the best! She is active with her members and the rest of the community, she always makes time for her members by hosting workshops and gamenights. This wonderful lady has a very busy real life, with doing school and taking care of a kid. Starfire always makes times to help her officer core or even her members! She does a lot of good for this community already and I believe she can make a difference in KSI Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Baxsaa WD Abaddon Link to forums account - @Baxsaa Reasoning why they deserve this - Wow, this man is nothing much a well oil machine when it comes to his squad! I know he is not in my squad but Baxsaa is in my division and I never hear nothing less but good things about him. He never just talks about what he will do and sit back and not do it. His actions always shows how much work he actually puts into the squad, if an officer needs training he is there. If a member needs him, he's there. Doing the split he has shown actually how much work he does put in for the squad even though there is a lot in his real life. All the work he has done in the past and what he is currently doing has proven why he deserves his rank. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sasuke08 WD Vanquish Link to forums account - @Sasuke08 Reasoning why they deserve this - Geez, I could say so much about him. He one of many people that have taught me on how to be an officer in the first place. Sasuke and I were in SL together when I first come into KSI. He even had own special role "SL training officer," this man was a beast in training. Even though he was in the military but he still tried his best to help everyone. He has been up and down the ranks multiple times within SL and now he is back in the ranks. Now he is better then ever! His actions shows much work he puts in to Vanquish. I've seen his work, he always hosting workshops and having bomb ass gamenights! Even now Sasuke is still being a mentor to those lower then him and even helping those higher them him. He always there for anyone that need advice or just needing a friend. Glad to have him back in the ranks and doing what he is best at. SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIxSniipes WD Carnage Link to forums account - @TaSH Sniipes Reasoning why they deserve this - Sniipes has been a SSGT for a little bit now, but he is always trying his best. He had a little bit a rough few weeks due to some personal Poop, but he come back swinging. From being active with the members, recruiting and doing promotions! He is really trying his best, and always wanting to learn more about his responsibilities as a SSGT. Even trying to better himself as a leader and a friend. Sniipes is now even learning how to become a LT! He is always communicating to the officer core about what is happening to with is real life(school, esports, etc). He has been an amazing officer lately and trying to be even more active with the members of Carnage! SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI sTuna97 WD Carnage Link to forums account - @SpicyTunaRoll97 Reasoning why they deserve this - Tuna has recently just join KSI but he is one of the most active SGTs Ive seen! He is always asking questions about things or just being active in the discord severs. He is always putting himself out there, joining other squads gamenights or just hanging with them in parties. I am glad to have Tuna in Carnage and in WD! Tuna has been showing interest in being and officer but he is always just trying to be active. Forum Staff (ADMIN/MODS/DEPARTMENT HEADS) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Venum 7 Admin Link to forums account - @The ChadMin Reasoning why they deserve this - Ok listen, I was forced to do this....Bane and Venum were fighting about this. I wasn't forced to do this, this is out of my own heart and how much respect I have for Venum. He always done the Join area and Webops right, there is nothing that Venum can't do! He is always there from being active in our casual chat or just being there for whenever one of this team needs him. Venum is always there whenever I need a question answered or helping us fix the forums(ps he was the one breaking it lol) but Venum has never let us down! I could go on and on and on about him and all the hard work he does, but words are never enough for him. Even then Venums actions are always greater then the words he has said! Department Member Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Spice Join Mod Link to forums account - @KSI Spice Reasoning why they deserve this - There is so much for me to say about this wonderful person, not to say the least, but her start to the join area was a little rocky. However, Spice is a unique, intelligent, hard worker, and sweet person she is and has managed to get though the first few weeks of hardships. Spice did not let me down during the first few training sessions with her. Spice is good at keeping information and does nothing less than trying her very best! She has been very helpful within the Join area since she was cleared; she is always on top of her applications but even has been posting new applications for her fellow join mods to pick up. With how much work she puts in Webops, I see her being able to achieve a lot within this area!

  31. Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Swag 77, CoS Link to forums account - @KSI Swag 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - The man wears many hats, beyond his role as Chief of Staff. I know we like to joke around and say mind ya business, but he truly does care for this community, the members, and staff alike. You can always find him in a party asking people how they're doing, if they need anything, what games they're into etc. I remember a time when board members were like unicorns, and you would only see them if things were hitting the fan. Swag isn't that guy. He likes to be boots on the ground when and where he can to help out, and that's something I admire about him. He lives up to his word when he says rank doesn't matter, and would never ask anyone to do something he isn't willing and able to do himself. This month, he's worked his tail off even more than usual, so I feel he's very deserving of Senior Leader OTM. Director Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Slick 7, All of it Link to forums account - @KSI Slick 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Ol' oil slicky icky icky! I mean, he's the only option at the moment, so...kidding lol. Slick works his tail off, no matter where he's at, or what he's doing. Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Hex 77, Div Lead, ES Link to forums account - @KSI Gambit 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Yes, I know, doing something a little different here. Oh no, the horror! Lol, y'all will live. Anyway, I've been seeing a lot of great things come out of ES, especially recently, and anytime I have the pleasure to even be in a group conversation with Gambit, I can instantly tell that the man has a plan and sees to it that it's executed. They've had a successful squad split, a plethora of promotions, and continue to fill out the rank and file with ease. He's a legend for a reason, and from what I can tell, he's certainly lived up to it. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Ath3na 7, CoFo, WD Link to forums account - @KSI ATH3NA 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Once again, doing something a little different. Athena has faced a lot of adversity recently, but pushes through with ease. The lady has no quit, and it's something I admire. When the going gets tough, she doubles down and refuses to accept defeat as an answer. We all know the troubles that SL had to face, and the efforts put into that Div, so I won't go into it. Since her transfer to WD, she's went above and beyond as a 7, way more than anyone would expect her to. The fact that she was able to save as many people as she did through the transfer process speaks volumes, as well as the effort she puts into her new home. I don't know how she juggles it all as LCC and a Clan Ops 7, but hats off to her! General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI T StackG, GEN, CS, Wrath Link to forums account - @KSI T StackG Reasoning why the deserve this - Speaking of another person who won't accept defeat as an answer, Mr. Stack. I've watched the man climb up the ranks, have to take step back due to IRL, and climb back up to take the helm once again. Stack is a no nonsense type of guy when it comes to getting things done, but he can also cut up with the best of us. Nothing goes unnoticed by him...nothing! He pushes through whatever the latest tough moment may be, and finds a way to come out the other side in tact. There's been times where he could've broken given the circumstances, and no one would blame him. But he still continued forward. His courage and determination alone this past month are what warrants this nomination, because he's shown both in droves! Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Nezuko, CPT, CS, Calamity Link to forums account - @KSI Nezuko Reasoning why they deserve this - Nez found himself as the sole officer in his squad for a spell while IRL smacked his Gen (love ya Sleepy lol), and he really took it well. He dug in, trained his PO, went recruiting with them, knocked out workshops, and hosted as many game nights as he could. The guy didn't complain at all. He just saw what needed to be done, and went to work. In my eyes, that is a go getter, and he certainly did just that!

  32. 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.

  33. 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):

  34. 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.

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.

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.

  35. Category: Senior Leader Gamertag: KSI Swag 77 Forums Link: @KSI Swag 77 Reasons they deserve this award: I really got to know who Swag was when Wrath transferred over to CS. I know this man is busier than all get out but he still manages to come to SQUAD level events throughout KSI. He has always had the best interest in mind when it comes to KSI and CS. There has been many procedures that have been implemented that has come from Swag. Just to mention one thing recently is the 1:1 fluff ratio. I'll admit at first I thought it wasn't even going to work but it completely does. This man has a strategic mind and plays cards that he knows will work and if they don't he already has a plan B,C and D. To see someone so high up in KSI interact with every day members is astonishing. Keep up the good work Mr Swag. Senior Leader OTM (x3) June 2021, April 2021, Jan 2021. Die Hard KSI Hall of Fame Division Creator 2021 Donor Category:Division Leader Gamertag: KSI Uppish 7 Forums Link: @KSI Uppish 7 Reasons they deserve this award: This man has Chaos Syndicate running through his veins. Whenever DM shut down, we were transferred over to CS and this man was the first individual we met. From that very first encounter I knew he was a force to be reckoned with, not only by his knowledge about the community but also by his confidence. After a few months of being here he was promoted up to Div Lead and I tell you what, since then there has been some major moves made and they have all made CS stronger than ever. He holds every single Divisional leader and officer to a higher standard and makes them work for their rank. There is nothing that is given out for free that isn't earned and that is simply amazing. Yes Uppish is an extremely busy man but he makes time to come and enjoy game nights and make himself known through the division and that is something that is rarely seen when it comes to someone that high up, at the end of the day he is a member like every single one of us. He works hand and hand with the leaders and officers, he has implemented a lot of different procedures that work! Keep crushing it! Division Creator Divisional Leader OTM x2 Co-Founder OTM x2 General OTY Captain OTM Captain OTM Divisional x2 OS Level 1 OS Level 2 Category: Co-Founder Gamertag: KSI Grogu 7 Forums Link: @KSI Grogu 7 Reasons they deserve this award: I have seen this man start the year off as a GEN and quickly moved his way up to Co-Fo. He has been very knowledgeable and willing to go into very detailed training that is meant for success. In no means will I say some of his training was "textbook" but it was so effective he gave me the knowledge to be confident where I am at now. Not only has he trained me like that but he has taken this division and implemented some very planned and strategic decisions. Shatner is here to help as much people as he can and that are willing to learn from him. At the end of the day all he wants is to better KSI as a whole and so far I can see that when it reflects to the Division. No matter what is going on day or night he is always available, there are even times I wonder, does he even live outside of KSI because he Eats, Sleeps and lives the KSI life all the time while managing irl at the same time. Not only has he built Wrath to what is was before handing it over to me, he has also been able to go over and prevent other squads to fail that were struggling. Yes one failed but he tried everything he could to keep it afloat and if that doesn't explain a little bit of his dedication and love for this community I don't know what would. Shatner, you have taken your position by storm and I see no reason why you don't deserve Co-Fo OTY! Co-Founder OTM x2 CS DHoF General DOTM General OTM OS Level 1 Helping Hand Trainer Category: Captain Gamertag: KSI Sleepy Forums Link: @Sleepy Reasons they deserve this award: This man has stuck through an unimaginable storm that would cause the normal member to leave a long time ago. From the time he came into the community there has been nothing but greatness come from him. Since his squad split earlier this year, he has been the man at the wheel Persevering through every obstacle thrown at him. There was many times where I know he wanted to throw the towel in but that wasn't an option. He has come up with new ideas to better the squad he's in and even challenge to better the ideas given by others within his squad. He has built the squad that he is in from the ground up recruiting over half of those members by himself and training them as well! Time and time again he always shows out when it comes to training and expanding his knowledge within the community. Not only has he dived feet first into Clan Ops but literally everywhere you look within KSI sleepy is there. Keep up the great work brother! I see you going far and thank you for what you have done for the community in this year alone.

He has really started to show is full potential in his current rank as a LT. At different times this man has took on 4+ mentees at a single time. He is a machine. He never burns out whatsoever despite the squad leadership telling him to take a break. His ability to talk and train people are out of this world. I haven't seen this in a minute. There as been many of times that he has stayed up till 4am in the morning working with someone, either it be training or helping them recruit while having to work the next day. He clearly shows love and drive for this community. I see this man going far if he continues on the track that he is going. There are multiple occasions where he has put KSI first in every aspect without being asked to do so. All he wants is KSI to prosper as a whole and isn't worried about any personal gain. LT DOTM Nov 2021 LT OTM Oct 2021 SSGT DOTM Aug 2021 Category: SSGT Gamertag: KSI Walrus Forums link: @KSI_Walrus Reasons they deserve this award: Walrus just recently got promoted to LT but during the majority of his time he has been one of the best SSGTs to show the amount of Drive and love for his squad and the community. Since coming to the officer ranks he has soaked in as much knowledge and then turned around and used it. It's awesome to see this man work. He trained up a potential officer to the point that the PO was actually transferred out to another squad to build up their officer core. Walrus has held many different workshops and have done this that aren't asked of just because he has this unseen drive. He is constantly working to better WRATH and KSI as a whole. Category: Department Head Gamertag: KSI Paradox7 Forums link: @Loyalty Paradox Reasons they deserve this award: Since I have become part of the AAP department, Paradox has been there always at a moments notice to help with any questions or concerns. He is on top of his game when it comes to teaching the KSI way. He has given me the confidence to do my duties in AAP and has taught me the right way to do things. He has a constant passion for the department and KSI as a whole. Paradox is always out there promoting and trying to expand AAP and the well-being of the department 10 fold! Keep up the amazing work and mentorship!

  36. 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.

  37. 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.

  38. 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!

  39. Well it's been a real nice minute since I did this. So plenty of shout outs are in order tbh. First up is the Groggiest of Grog, @KSI Grogu 7. Dude I don't think you realize just how clutch you are. Like for real, I would've gone insane the past 3 months without you homie. The words do not exist to describe how magnificent & incredible you are. Most certainly earned that CS DHoF and then some beyond a shadow of doubt. I appreciate everything you do for CS & KSI homie. Second is the slappiest of slappers, @Sleepy. The guy is MEGA clutch for his squad, Calamity lives and dies by that pimp hand homie and you know it too. So promise to use your powers for good and keep doing what you're doing. You'll make it hella far in no time flat. Remember "The longer you spend down there, the better you'll be on top." (Yea I changed the quote it's an improvement lol). Third is @KSI Kat.. and I didn't have a good wind up for this one, sorry Kat lol. But over the last month as we've tag teamed Acting Gen of Rebellion you've proven yourself a worthy adversary and MORE then capable of running your own squad one day. You did a spectacular job in working towards creating a better and stronger squad and I know you will continue to do so. Don't worry Jak, your "if I get hit by a bus" plan is in good hands with Kat around . Last, but certainly & probably least , is the homeboy from down under, @KSI MercX. His hillbilly heada** has run a darn near PERFECT squad for just over 3 months now. He's done a great job holding his officers to high standards and overseen the transition of Wrath from a great squad to the powerhouse of CS. Only greatness lies ahead Merc, keep making those money moves big man and you got a shot at achieving it . Love ya pal. Oh wait, how could I forget @KSI Stack & @KSI KingdomX. Stack I've known for eons and Kingdom I've gotten to know better, y'all haven't been forgotten for how well Wrath has been doing either. Talk about a dynamic duo, y'all could put just about any other duo in this community to shame. It think Shatner and I have an edge for now but idk how long it'll last lol. There are a TON of phenomenal leader who have made CS into what it is, and my challenge to each and every one of you is to get yourselves ready for when the torch (eventually) is passed to you. One of the ways I've learned so much in KSI is by asking questions, don't do something simply because ANYONE tells you too, whether it's myself a Board member or anyone else. If you have questions then ask them and get an answer, you might not like it and you may still disagree and do it anyway. But you will learn about that person and the reasoning behind the decision they made, and that is useful information. So ALWAYS ASK "WHY?" Love you guys more than I probably should , Uppish!

  40. KSI T StackG @KSI T StackG Outstanding Service Level 1 Well, in case Stack's awards aren't enough for you, I'll list those and add a bit more for you. CAPTAIN OTY 2020, CPT OTM Oct. 2020, CPT DOTM Nov. 2020, LT DOTM May 2021. In case those awards weren't enough to convince you. Let me be the first to say that he's more than earned this accolade 2-3 times over. I've known Stack pretty much since he joined, we met not long after he did was recruited in June 2020. Since then, he's been a General in Wrath DM and has been a steadfast and unwavering presence for his squad since he stepped up as officer a month after he joined. Stack recruits, promotes, and trains like the experienced professional he has become over time. Stack's been through hell towards the end of DM. While him and his squad was trashed and completely isolated by the DM 7s from the rest of the Division. With no help a small officer staff they watched as those same 7s left and 200+ members of their home Division left alongside them. Then Wrath was moved to CS and Stack helped lead the charge for that process, as an officer staff, Wrath transferred the vast majority of their members within the first 72 hours of transfers opening up. Only a very small number of transfers did not make it and they were fluff anyway. Since coming to CS, Stack has once again flourished as an officer and been a crucial part of training the current Wrath Officer core, he's a larger than life presence throughout CS and well known across the Division. Stack has time and again shown his dedication and commitment to Wrath and KSI. He's an incredible member and leader who's easily earned OS Level 1. Love you Taco

  42. Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Barb 7 (ES)Link to forums account - @KSI Barb 7Reasoning why they deserve this - Since rejoining KSI, there have been several faces that I have been glad to see again and Barb is most definitely one of them. Seeing Barb as a Gen/ lower ranking 7 when I left and returning to her being a full blown division leader is fantastic. The fact that she has retained her smile and happy attitude with her members despite the headaches and stress of trying to revive a division is quite admirable. She is always the first to greet people in the discord server, hop in any party to help solve problems, or come up with ways to shock members by breaking her normal calm style, and saying things that no one would expect Barb to say. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI SirBerry (Captain - ES/HYDRA)Link to forums account - @KSI Sir BerryReasoning why they deserve this - Berry has had a lot of weight to carry and that been apparent just in the short time I've been here. The most refreshing thing about Berry is that he is blatantly honest about his shortcomings or not wanting to do things (OTMS hint hint). But despite this he still makes time and a point to do the things he doesn't want to for the betterment of his members and the growth of the squad. Although he isn't our General yet, he has the demeanor and discipline o become one and is highly respected in Hydra. Lieutenant: Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI D3ATHSTR0K3 (Lieutenant -ES/HYDRA)Link to forums account - @KSI DEATHSTR0K3Reasoning why they deserve this - Deathstroke has been an excellent model of what officers should be to new members: available, outreaching, and involved. He is always one of the first members to say hi on Xbox in parties once he sees you online, will go out of his way to check on you even while at work, and tries to make his gamenights as inclusive for everyone as possible whether they own the game he's hosting or not. He is a hard worker, disciplined, and a great addition to the Hydra officer staff. Staff Sergeant: Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Starset 7 (Lieutenant (as of tonight) - ES/HYDRA)Link to forums account - @KSI Starset 7Reasoning why they deserve this - Starset is always one of the friendliest and most informative officers you can go to. Due to his wide range of experience in KSI, hes able to help members grow their community knowledge and point them in the right direction on how to get further involved. He is always using his successes and failures as an officer in the past to help teach the newer generations better ways of reaching their goals and accomplishing feats within the community. He's also a great friend to shop with lol. Sergeant: Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIMommabear ( Staff Sergeant (as of tonight) - ES/HYDRA)Link to forums account - @KSIMommaBearReasoning why they deserve this - I have never, and I mean never met someone in this community who is so generous to people she hardly knows, just to be positive and make others happy. Momma has gone out of here way to soak up all KSI knowledge she can get her hands on, knockout certifications, co host gamenights, and buy members games just so they can play with more people in our squad. It is a super honor to be able to work with her on a daily basis and her attitude and mentality make Hydra a more fun place to be.

  43. Senior Leader (SENIOR DIRECTOR through CEO) Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI xKIng 77 (CEO, Acting ES Cofo, acting Hydra ES Gen) Link to forums account - @KSI xKing 77 Reasoning why they deserve this - Even though he is the CEO, King has jumped in to help with ES and prevent me from burning out trying to be Div Lead, Cofos and Gen all at the same time. He has inspired ex-members to come back and current mebers to step up. Because of his effort Hydra not only has a good mix of officers, but also 13 potential officers and is well on their way to splitting the squad. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI SirBerry Link to forums account - @KSI Sir Berry Reasoning why they deserve this - Berry was the only officer left in angels when it was decided to merge Banshee and Angels into Hydra. He went above and beyond to reach out to members of not only angels but banshee as well. He has been running the squad under the guidance of KSI xKing 77 and is continuing the awesome work that he started when the squad was formed. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI DEATHSTR0K3 Link to forums account - @KSI DEATHSTR0K3 Reasoning why they deserve this - Detahstroke was on the banshee side of the merge into hydra and along with Sir Beery and under KIng helped bring banshee and some angels members ove to the new squad. DEATHSTR0K3 is the king of gamenights, he would run one every night of the week if we let him. ALthough shy, he has been working on his confidence and reaching out to the members and has done an awesome job overcoming that shyness SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Inked 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Inked 7o Reasoning why they deserve this - INked had shown interest in becoming an officer, and even when she first joined ES she reached out to members and gained their trust and friendship. When it became apparent that succubus had major problem with the profiles of the members we promoted her to help out. She came in like gangbusters and did the bulk of that work which has made her known throughout the squad in just a few short weeks. She also trained the other officers on what to do became a confidante and mentor to them. She is a dynamic force in ES and I am very glad to have her SGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Gambit 7 Link to forums account - @KSI Gambit 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Since returning to KSI and coming out of retirement Gambit has been recruiting, recruiting and recruiting.

  44. Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7, CS Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Uppish has many reasons as to why he deserves the award but a few big ones for me is how hands on he’s been with Calamity while still managing the Division. He’s always worked great with us but as our acting CoFo he’s more hands on than ever before. Pushing us all to become better officers and to perfect our craft. His goofiness and drive hasn’t changed much since he’s taken on his new role, he’s still jumping in parties, helping people with one on ones regardless wether it’s training or just some advice. Overall Uppish is just the GOAT. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSIShatner 7, CS Link to forums account - @KSIShatner 7 Reasoning why they deserve this -Shatner has helped me with a lot of things since taking on CoFo, he was always there to help me even when he was 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 dudes I go to. During my little training as acting Gen shatner 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. General Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Sinon, CS Calamity Link to forums account - @KSI Dilf Reasoning why the deserve this - Sinon has been a mentor and a friend since we had split from Doom. He’s showed me some of the in’s and out’s to being a general. Not only has he been my Gen but a friend as well. Someone I can go to and bounce any idea off of, or just to talk to and clear my head. He’s always made sure I could handle something before throwing it my way or going through training, never set me up for failure.

  45. Division Leader Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - KSI Uppish 7- CS Link to forums account - @KSI Uppish 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - Since he got promoted up to Division leader, I swear we are experiencing Uppish 2.0. This man is continuing to surprise everyone with his drive, knowledge and passion for CS and the community as a whole. His personality hasn’t changed one bit, he still gets down and dirty but with a new title. Co-Founder Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - COFO KSIShatner 7 CS Link to forums account - @KSIShatner 7 Reasoning why they deserve this - From Day one this man has been a powerhouse when it comes to training and being an amazing leader. He has taken his new promotion and made it to where he is probably the most hands on trainer he could be. With that being said I am very glad to work under Shatner because I know he knows his stuff and will always do his best for the squads/division and KSI as a whole. Captain Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) -CPT KSI T StackG CS/Wrath Link to forums account - @KSI T StackG Reasoning why they deserve this - First off, I don’t know what I would do if Stack wasn’t my CPT. He is organized, dedicated and motivated to do anything and learn as much as he can. No matter what is going on he is always pushing to find ways to help and better the squad. His drive never fails whatsoever. This man is a beast, every chance he gets he wants to take that next step to learn and move forward. LT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - LT KSI KingdomX CS, Wrath Link to forums account - @KSIDeMoNk1NG Reasoning why they deserve this - To see Kingdom grow into the role of a LT has been amazing to see. He has taken on the role of being a mentor to many of the new and up coming potential officers. He is one of the most calm and collected individuals I have ever been around, with his new found drive I can see this man doing far in the community SSGT Gamertag (Rank - Division/Squad) - SSGT KSI Streak CS, Wrath Link to forums account - @KSI Streak Reasoning why they deserve this - When you first see Streak work all you can say is WOW! From day one I knew this man had the drive to be an officer and since he has earned the rank of SSGT he hasn’t let anyone down whatsoever. This man is a beast when it comes to Member retention, Recruiting and staying calm under pressure.

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.

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.

  48. Gamertag: KSI Airborne 7 Forums: @KSI Airborne 7 award: Gold Oustanding service Evidence: Airborne has been a down to earth and straight shot kinda guy since joining KSI back in 2012. He charged theough the ranks in DR, eventually making his way to Co-Div Lead. He split squads, led his staff, and had DR at the top of the food chain for a very long time. It was at this point Airborne felt Clan Ops wasnt for him, he switched it up and went the department route. And he didnt stop and do some mediocre work there. He came in like a wrecking ball, pumping some life into the AAP department, Airborne is directly responsible for where the AAP is today with its structure and policies. Now as a board member hes playing two different roles at the same time. He diving into uncharted waters heading up as KSI's PR contact with other communities, shops, and etc. All while still heading departments as the Chief Department Manager. Airborne has been through the ringer in his time, and there has been times where things got to be too much, but he stuck it out for the community be loves so much. When he takes on a project, he does with the intent of putting maximum effort into it. See the list of awards below to get an idea of the path Airborne has walked in his KSI tenure. i would also like to call on the following to witness. @KSI Tea 7 @KSI MeShell 7 @KSI xKing 77 @KSI Swag 77 @Mr. DropShot @KSIxAsuma 77 Awards earned: Hall of Fame Divisional Hall of Fame 2020 OTY Runnerup 2019 OTY Runnerup 2017 OTY Runnerup Forum Staff OTM (1,2 and 3) Co Division Leader OTM Founder OTMx2 Captain OTMx2 Lieutenant OTM Triple Threat OS lvl 1&2

  50. I believe WuTang deserves this because he embodies the three key points of KSI Knowledge Strength and Integrity also he goes above and beyond for his squad and officers staff the man definitely deserves this award even though he is a captain but also embodies the traits of a tru General and I believe one day will lead his squad to greatness!!!! If it wasn’t for this man I wouldn’t have found my passion again to become an officer again and help me achieve my personal KSI goals https://www.ksiforums.org/profile/53850-mr-wu-tang/
