Maaz Sawyer (or Donny, Uji, Log, whatever) was instrumental in the testing and implementation of Hearthstone as the DB's newest gaming platform. With the loss of our beloved Pazaak site, I culled DB Gaming and my staff for ideas of how we could fill the huge gap left in the free card game category. Donny immediately brought Hearthstone to my attention, and offered to test it as a potential for support. Donny played more matches than any other member (even though he forgot to submit them), provided detailed notes and cluster value recommendations, and co-wrote the rules for how the game would be implemented as a PvP platform.

Additionally, Donny took the charge on testing additional modes for StarCraft 2, specifically the PvE and vs. AI modes. Donny took it upon himself to drive interest in the game, leading to a sizable interest level with the club's gaming community. In the end, and based completely off his recommendations we added a new PvE mode for StarCraft 2, adding a much needed element to a game that is free to play for our membership base.

Donny is an incredible asset on the Fist staff, and truly pushes initiatives that have the club's gaming community in mind.

This award is only a small token of my appreciation for all he has done as M:Fist, and I look forward to everything he will bring to the team in the future.
