Primary reason

Alishu served almost six months as Magistrate, first to Bubba and then to me. He was a valued member of the Shadow Academy Staff. During his time as Magistrate, his major project was to take our severely outdated Dark Jedi Brotherhood History courses - both of them - and more or less completely rewrite them. This required a pretty substantial research burden made even more difficult by the fact that the DB's canon was shifting around him as he was attempting to make sense of it. In the end, the courses combine for over 6,000 words of writing that will serve as a great jumping off point for future DBers to learn what came before them.

Beyond this project, Alishu was also a vital member of our staff when it came to proofing the myriad of new/revised courses we pushed out the first half of this year - including the well-received Diablo 3 course as well as the Lightsaber Basics course authored by his fellow Magistrate, Mirus. He also offered valuable feedback and opinions on various Shadow Academy projects and policies that came out during his time on the staff.

Alishu did all of this because he wanted to make the DB better, not because he was trying to look for a shiny or a promotion. That, to me, shows exactly the kind of attitude any leader in this club should have - the selfless determination to make the club better. Thank you for six months of excellent service, Alishu, and I am truly sorry it's taken me this long to get this to you.
