Primary reason

To whom it may concern:

Over the last six months, Dante has continued to demonstrate why he is the the "old man" of Scholae Palatinae. Dante continues to serve as the BTL of Dorimad Sol, a team full of incredibly driven and talented people. This team had all but one person go on to do stuff for the GJW. In this time frame Dante himself has gone on to earn 521 Clusters of Fire, 1 PoB, and 8 Clusters of Ice. He won a Bronze Nova from the Fading Light - Nicht Ka round. He has earned a further 11 crescents on top of that. Those come from 31 different competitions. Of those he had 5/5 Nicht Ka, 8/11 of HSP's Looking Home Campaign Finale, and 8 out of 11 for the GJW. It was Dante's vision for the Battleplan that pushed our team to take 4th for the event.

Dante has been instrumental in the filling of HSP's roster, beginning with his convincing of Delak to move from the EH to the DJB. At least seven new individuals have come to HSP because of this one conversion.

Dante remains one of the most loyal and hard working of the HSP members. He always gives good insight to issues and plans the House is undertaking. He has helped motivate and push HSP members into securing our third place victory in the GJW. He may be fond of the "laf"s and the "ZzzzzZ"s on IRC, but Scholae Palatinae definetely wouldn't be what it is without him. As thanks for his amazing last six months of effort, I recommend he be awarded this Grand Cross.

Additional reasons

Much of the work that Dante does that has the biggest impact isn’t on his dossier. He always shows up for competitions by looking at the numbers and finds some personal rewards for it, he brings in those he can to help strengthen our team and games a lot still with nothing left to prove. A lot of work still happens on IRC, even with the advent of WhatsApp, it still remains the key place where the conversations happen, with nightly conversations there about competitions, fleet structures, old members, new members, times long past and motivational comments through the hard times. It gives me some insight into why Elders are so important in any unit and why they are listed in the current version of the Clanning requirements. He isn't officially an Elder and so doesn't bear the title, but he fills the role perfectly for us as the most active among several other actual Elders. Thank you Dante for all the awesome work you do. Congratulations on this Grand Cross of the Dark Side.
