The number of years I have known Reiden spans decades. I remember his fresh face coming to Clan Scholae Palatinae. I remember being loud and doing all manners of shenaniganery, Reiden saw it all. Reiden has been a member of CSP since some of our members were in diapers. That's not even hyperbole. Though things haven't always been perfect and we haven't always seen eye to eye, Reiden is still at it.

Fast forwards a few years. Reiden is now an Elder. Boy howdy, things have changed since the way they used to be. The DB is like a completely different world. Still not perfect, but slightly improved. Though he may not believe it, he did work very hard to get there. 99% of that I will chalk up to his tenaciousness. He might even have me beat in that department, which is certainly cause for some alarm. I think he may even have an old quote that goes something to that effect. The other 1% is the puzzles. We all know it's the heart that counts.

I am giving this medal to Reiden solely based on his not subject to interpretation, tangible and measurable contribution to CSP since his medal. Since his last medal, Reiden has participated in 18 competitions, participated in 3 RPs, racking up 10k words, recieving 9 Crescents and 23 Clusters of Ice. These events alone are enough to merit a Steel Cross. By the numbers that's 1516 XP since January. I know he's slowed down a bit, but even still Reiden is managing to put up some good participation stats.

On a personal note, Reiden, you've climbed the mountain and you're right up near the peak. When you get up that high, hard to see that each of those little steps you've made have all amounted to a long journey. Though you may feel like you haven't travelled far, remember that it was all of those little steps that got you to where you are now. This medal is just another little step. And though the very top of that mountain might be out of reach, try to remember that where you are now once felt miles away to a younger you, who would often witness a younger me scream into the nothingness of an empty Clan chat after midnight.

Thank you for being a steadfast member of Clan Scholae Palatinae. I appreciate you!

Reiden Karr, aka the Puzzle King, aka the Queueueueue Master, is in desperate need of correction on his non-site tracked XP. I did a screw up and didn’t realize that his last several major awards (despite having me write reccs) didn’t include points for his non-site work. So let me rewind the clock a bit to the launch of the XP and the important stuff Reiden has done over the last year(ish).

Over the last year there has been 1106 non-auto character sheet approvals. Of those Reiden has covered some 60.3% (668) of them, most within minutes of hitting the queue. (I don’t have a metric/ability to track time in queue to give average time there, so you are just going to have to take my word on it being that fast. It is incredibly difficult to see the alert pop up in voice-staff and get to the site before Reiden has already handled it.)

In addition to that I have counted 173 fantastic remands to character sheets handled by Reiden over this time period. Even in the instances where he is not the one writing the remand, he is nearly always the first to put comments in the thread about issues in our threads about the sheets that come through.

Reiden is also incredibly detailed oriented, frequently going through our feats and skills to make sure when there are major changes, everything gets caught. This includes the recent Charisma skill changes where there were multiple feats related to species and disciplines that didn’t have the wording corrected to the new skill terms. With hundreds of feats in our system, this is no easy task to catch the ones that have been missed.

Reiden has also been documenting many of the CS changes, and taking notes on common issues seen. These have been pushed out in some excellent reports.

Reiden, I can’t apologize enough on the fubar here. Congrats on the new drop of XP and stabby, and I look forward to more correctly rewarding you going forward.
