Zakath and Sanguinius are both deserving of honor and gratitude from all of Clan Arcona. And, especially, from me. At the onset of my tenure as their Proconsul, I established that both Aediles would work for me... and that we were going to work hard.

Our first, and perhaps most ominous, task was to establish a culture of activity within Arcona. I do not buy that this season is a 'lull' and I demanded they mirror my thought process. Both complied and stepped forward, willingly, to assist. We spent two weeks brain storming numerous competitions for the month of October (Halloween, yay) and began to set a plan of action. Not only did we determine the exact competitions, but the pair spaced them out over the entire month (creating a calender), submitted the competitions for MAA approval and have - without reproach - run each competition for the event.

Not only do they provide us weekly reminders and recaps, but they use it as a tool to continue driving the member experience. In several instances, I have seen both Aediles use a submission e-mail as a means of reaching out to their members to check on their welfare, ask for insight or to simply congratulate them (and then invite them onto IRC).

For such an exceptional demonstration of leadership and genuine care for their members, I applaud their efforts with Anteian Crosses. Well done, gentlemen.
