Lieutenant Commander Rin Wed Oct 2nd, 2024 @ 4:40am |
This writer has done a fantastic job of stepping up and involving themselves in my mission, introducing a rarely seen aspect of Rin that neither overshadowed nor felt out of place with the main themes of the mission. It felt like an entirely organic and natural sequence of events and I can't wait to see how it all transpires for Rin as a character. -S'hib |

Lieutenant Tate Sullivan Ph.D. Fri May 31st, 2024 @ 1:05pm |
I nominate tate Sullivan for her excellent soliliquy in "Now or Never". An exceptionally good post. Representing the highest quality of writing, using the simplest of structure and form and carefully crafted. Remarkably good. One of the best posts so far in 2024. A post that sets the standard. Well done. |

Consul Andrinn Orin Mon Apr 1st, 2024 @ 6:26am |
I nominate Andrinn Orin for the Outstanding Personal Character Award. Specifically for the recent post, "Goodbye Father - Part 2". I don't know why, in particular, but this recent post gave me pause. I think it is because of the way one can tell that Andrinn is dreading this reunion. The way that he says very little. The long takes and the non-verbal indications that he does not want to be there. But came anyway. The way he enters the room, closes the door and then turns around. Delaying the visual as long as possible. I don't know much about the relationship between them. But I can sense the anxiety, the dread and the pain that is to come. And I rather think Andrinn wishes he were anywhere else. And at the same time, at the contrary, wouldn't be anywhere else but here. For a person who is El-Aurian and a joined Trill, this kind of goodbye has to be challenging. Carrying all those old memories. All the loves, births, deaths and carrying it all around with oneself must be a heavy weight. And in this post, I get a sense of just how heavy it really is. |

Lieutenant Myne Redal Wed Dec 27th, 2023 @ 5:16am |
Specifically for "Clear the static in, the static in my mind," which is part of a lengthy arc of posts detailing the relationship between Myne, Redal, and the memories of the former hosts. This most recent one let's us see into the perspective of the symbiont, a first in this arc (to the best of my knowledge). It was a joy to read and let's me better understand the pain of this character. |

Lieutenant Colonel Azhul Naxea Wed Dec 27th, 2023 @ 5:15am |
Nominated for the ongoing series, "What It Means to Serve". A very enjoyable trip down dang-o memory lane . Where we get to see the very green marine Azhul Naxea in her early years as a cadet and then an officer. I love it. I hope to read more and I hope the author keeps going. It's an awesome way for us get to know the character. |

Lieutenant Commander Aurelia Taylor Mon Oct 30th, 2023 @ 4:41am |
For her solo post, A Song for Gary as well as the other posts both solo and JPs that she has done showcasing Lia's journey from being placed in the brig and a rank reduction to friction with Gary but hopefully knowing he still and will always love her. Jeff aka Captain Gary Taylor |

Lieutenant JG Miraj Derani Mon Oct 30th, 2023 @ 4:40am |
I nominate Ensign Derani for her personal character arc with the attack on Miraj back on Popsicle One. As of this nomination (October 2023) that arc hasn't wrapped but a lot of good work has gone into crafting it. |
|
Captain Gary Taylor Mon Oct 30th, 2023 @ 4:40am |
I nominate Consul Orin for his three part work post series, "Peace can be hard sometimes" which helps fill in some of the backstory for Andrinn's character. |

Lieutenant Commander Rin Mon Dec 12th, 2022 @ 2:17am |
While I have thoroughly enjoyed reading the life and adventure I'd our favorite XB, Lieutenant Rin, you have out one yourself this time! While "Rude Awakening" wasn't a long jp...it was powerful nonetheless. When I read that Ebi (possibly) died whiltalking to his friend, I nearly cried. Please don't lose the writing fire that clearly burns brighter than the fabled Lighthouse of Alexandria, that you carry inside you! Bill Aka Tonelly |

Lieutenant JG Miraj Derani Thu Nov 3rd, 2022 @ 5:24am |
Her ongoing journey to discover her past has hit another heart-bbreaking milestone. As young Miraj continues to search for her mother, I am kept on the edge of my seat ender at what the outcome will be. Keep going!! Bill Aka Tonelly |

Captain Gary Taylor Thu Sep 1st, 2022 @ 7:07am |
Commander Gary Taylor's trio of dinners with his wife have provided an insight to his domestic life, this is not something normally covered by sims. People seem to think its all action and adventure, Jeff has shown with these JP's that the characters have a life beyond their duties. Commander Lia Taylor (Ayesha) Chief Security Officer USS Elysium |

Lieutenant Myne Redal Mon Nov 1st, 2021 @ 3:14am |
For her post "Imaginaerum". This post moved me to tears. I look forward to reading more of Myne's struggle with the previous hosts. |

Commander Arrianna Salannis an Vantar Sat Jul 31st, 2021 @ 3:52pm |
Seeing this character morph from one face (Arrianna), to another (Flossie), while having an internal struggle with yet another version of herself...THEN, bring a whole new face (Kate) to the mix is quite impressive. Let's just hope we don't have our own Cybil being born (the older generation should pick up on the Sally Field nod. Lol) Crpl David Tonelly |

Commodore Phoenix Lalor-Richardson Sat Jul 31st, 2021 @ 3:48pm |
I know this award will not be given, simply because this writer has refused other awards before. But she has driven this mission along almost by herself, that alone makes this simple award seem so little in regards of what she has achieved. Commander Lia Taylor Chief Security/Tactical Officer USS Elysium aka Ayesha |

Lieutenant Commander Alicia Kelea-Salik Fri Jun 11th, 2021 @ 8:18am |
In her role as Kara Richardson-Starr, this writer has given me so much beautifully written interaction that, it has helped me continue to flesh out my own character of her older, over-protective brother, Mattias. |

Lieutenant Commander Alicia Kelea-Salik Sun Feb 28th, 2021 @ 8:41am |
Alicia has come on leaps and bounds since joining the ship having fell in love, married, fallen pregnant, taken on a mirror universe son and been adopted by Sthilg. |

Commodore Phoenix Lalor-Richardson Sun Feb 28th, 2021 @ 8:40am |
This character has endured and stayed strong in the light of events that would have driven lesser people to their knees. The loss of her best friend followed by the loss of her lover. Then in addition to this the birth of twins all while commanding the Elysium with skill and grace while maintaining a professional air. Jeff aka Commander Gary Taylor |
