Primary reason

Over the last several months, Chrome has shown what he is capable of, as a leader, member, and invested party of the club. Be it leading our first dedicated battle team since re-clanning, kicking ass by participating, or helping boost our wikipedia with some kickass 3d images.

Since he reached knighthood back in April (and now professionalhood, he was one of the first to make the order jump in CSP) he has participated in some 45 competitions on a Clan, and Club wide-level. This activity has earned him a multitude of crescents, clusters, and two Anteian Crosses.

Chrome was the first to approach the clan summit with an idea for a Battleteam. Knowing it needed a focus, he proposed what would become Shadow Guard, a gaming focused unit that has become home to many of our active members in House Imperium. The foundation he helped lay as BTL, has led to Shadow Guard becoming one of our most successful BTs we’ve ever had. His work with Delak also insured a smooth transition when he felt it was time to step back.

Chrome is skilled, active, and has gone above and beyond being a simple member for the club. He has left a lasting impression on the clan, that will be appreciated for years to come. Thanks for everything Chrome, and congratulations! Drinks are on you!

Additional reasons

When I think of Chrome and his participation to the Clan, I don’t see just your average Joe who puts his penny into the competitions and then disappears into real life. I see a true dedicationist, and a marvel in the making. As an effective participator, Chrome doesn’t just sit in the Sergeant office and follow orders, who takes part in the conversations, gets on level with his brothers in arms and concentrations on making activity the best he can for his Battleteam. Together with Landon Cruise, Chrome co-organised the Race to 9 Star Conflict competition, which was really a strong keystone in creating that Star Conflict gaming community Scholae Palatinae is (in)famous for. He gathered sixty-eight Clusters of Fire and ten Clusters of Earth for his efforts.

Chrome is capable of not just striking success in his strongest area, but he is capable of gathering knowledge from his failings and use them to improve his capabilities. As a reflective thinker, Chrome realised that gaming and flash games were his strong suit, so his participated in over fourty-five competitions and gathered himself nine crescents. This is including crescents for flash games and a Ruby Crescent for his success to first place in Star Conflict PVE as he battled with seven other members across the Brotherhood.

Fortunately we know that gaming isn’t exactly Chrome’s greatest strength, because this talent lies within his ability of self-management. To effectively manage your own time, tasks, achieve your goals and set new targets is what we look for in our Clan. Chrome is superbly effective in all these aspects, it is his ability to effectively lead Shadow Guard for three solid months despite his real life problems, it shows he has dedication and commitment to our community. Chrome felt only humble to admit defeat and allow Delak to take his place, but he never once left him alone on the job. When the wiki page of Shadow Guard needed a tune up, he took the initiative and speared the task. He gave the page a strong proof read and while most of it is still in review, Chrome took the initiative again and decorated the bare page with a custom made logo and banner.

Leadership is in Chrome’s blood, it motivates him and his cheery attitude affects the battle team as a whole. For having these qualities, I would happily recommend Chrome for the jump to Equite.

Congratulations Chrome! Drinks are on you!

Chrome has been in CSP since last year December and has celebrated his one year anniversary with us. We have become friends and it seems like we have been that longer than a year. Chrome is always providing me with graphics that I ask for in the detail I request or better, usually the latter. He has been instrumental in House Imperium and Shadow Guards success. Without him Shadow Guard wouldn't exist right now. He took my ideas when I couldn't do anything and he ran with it. He has always been good with answering me in telegram and doing the work he needs to do to get the job done. Chrome you are definitely a pleasure to have as my BTS. Let's work for another great year :)

Chrome, one of the most loyal members I have known since entering the online Star Wars world. No matter how long, or how far time has taken him over the course of our friendship, I know he is still one that I can turn to if needed. As of late I have been crushed by a void, but in that darkness my friend reemerged to show me he is still there. I know Howie hates the typical fluff, but Chrome I want to let you know your friendship and dedication to this Clan no matter how little or small is valued. Love you like a brother man!

Since his last promotion Chrome has co-organized 1 competition, while participating in 45 competitions, and earning 68 Clusters of Fire, 10 Clusters of Earth, and 1 Cluster of Ice. His crescent numbers in these events speak to his quality. He was awarded 3 Crescent with Topaz Star, 2 Crescent with Emerald Star, 1 Crescent with Sapphire Star, 1 Crescent with Amethyst Star, 1 Crescent with Ruby Star, and 1 Crescent with Diamond Star. These are no small time awards. Lastly he was able to earn 2 Anteian Crosses, and pass 3 courses.

Chrome your dedication to your Clan your Clan has always been here. I know you have had your ups and down with free time, but through it all you stuck around, and when you were able you gave your all. I appreciate everything you do my friend. Welcome to the Equites!

Chrome has been part of our family for just about a year now, and I have to say, he is an incredible delight to have! He is always talking to people (mostly about Star Wars, but come on), among other things, seeing how people are doing and pushing for activity. The list of participation goes on and on, as my colleagues have highlighted. He plays games, earning multitudes of Clusters, while also participating in 45 competitions. Through these participations, he has earned a myriad of Crescents of varying degree.

He is incredibly willing to forge new paths, with projects he has taken or currently undergoing within our Clan/House, not so much as a complaint, but with complete enthusiasm. I look forward to seeing what he does with Shadowguard, I can honestly say that he deserves this Equite promotion. He is a member that shows drive, and fits the Equite requirements so wholly. With a hearty congratulations to Chrome, congratulations, drinks are on you!
