Ranarr Kul is amazing! I just wanted to get that out of the way before I proceed with blasting the reader of this recommendation with obscene numbers. Since his last promotion/merit award Ranarr has participated in no less than 111 competitions for which he has earned 26 Crescents of various types. He is a gamer, a writer and an artist earning 186 Clusters of Fire, 201 Clusters of Earth, 9 Pendants of Blood, 3 Clusters of Ice and 9 Clusters of Graphite.

By definition Ranarr is a leader who leads by example. As a Rollmaster of Clan Tarentum for 3 months now he has sent hundreds of emails to welcome new members and instruct the journeymen of the Clan on how to advance in their careers. He has written a whole guide for the Journeymen which contains most of the information they need to start their Dark or Grey paths in this magnificent club. He has paired lots of Journeymen with capable and fitting Masters, he has helped no less than 5 JM reach the rank of Knight and most likely has many more to help.

Tarentum is both thankful and lucky to have Ranarr and this medal is just a small token to show our appreciation of him. Congratulations, Ranarr Kul!

Besided welcoming and tutoring all the Jouneymen in Tarentum: almost 100 emails for welcoming, promotion help, finding masters, and farewells all on a personal level for each of our Journeymen, 5 Knightings in the last quarter, multiple merit awards handed out and hosting a massive amount of competitions, 35 competitions to be more specific. His competitions range from easy to hard, from 1 week long to month long. He is a constant presence on Telegram, always helpful

Primary reason

Since his last recognition, almost 3 months ago, Ranarr Kul has participated in 55 competitions winning no less than 12 Crescents of various types, 236 Clusters of Fire, 10 Clusters of Earth and 4 Clusters of Graphite.

And even though he stepped down as Rollmaster of Tarentum due to real life constraints. In his last 2 months of Rollmaster, he has reported twice, recruited one new member and organized 26 competitions and co-organized one more with his newest apprentice.

In addition to passing 2 Shadow Academy exams and passing 11 news post comments, Ranarr still keeps a constant presence on Telegram and email. He's a great guy and I'm glad that he could stay active and still be a part of this great Clan. Congratulations, Ranarr! Thank you for your hard work as Rollmaster!

Additional reasons

In short, Ranarr Kul is an outstanding member of the DJB and Tarentum. Throughout his tenure as Rollmaster he organized no less than 26 competitions within Tarentum for the membership, was a constant presence on Telegram, was always more than willing to help other members, and created a nice Quick Start Guide for Tarentum.

In addition to his stellar work as Rollmaster he also found the time to earn himself 3 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 5 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 4 Pendants of Blood, 296 Clusters of Fire, 10 Clusters of Earth, 1 Cluster of Graphite, and 1 Legion of the Scholar. Ranarr is an active and inspiring presence within the Clan and I can think of nobody more deserving of recognition than Ranarr.

What can I say about Ranarr! Just before he became the Former Roll Master of Clan Tarentum, he became a member of Grey Wolf.

And has been an active presents ever since, I have known him for a long while, and I know he is a good multi-player of Battle Front, as we have played a load of games together, and he is an fantastic joy to be with online and to be around.

He is always active on telegram and is there for support and encouragement.

This recommendation which is going forward, is just a small token of our affection, towards this great man that I know, and it comes from the heart, when I say this to you Ranarr "You are a great loyal friend, a brilliant gamer, and I am dam sure, Grey Wolf would not be as it is without, such a loyal member as you".

And as you always say to me "Love you Bro".

This recommendation for a Grand Cross is a personal tribute, to my Belgium Bro!.

With all my best wishes and congrats, I fully support this recommendation for a Grand Cross.

Ranarr has been an extremely valuable member of the Fist staff since joining in December of 2016. Ranarr's greatest strength lies in his ability to be a self-starter. In his three months on staff, Ranarr has taken the lead on managing the FIST Galaxy of Heroes competition series; running and grading each weekly competition in a timely manner. Additionally, he has served as a co-organizer of our Annual Flash and Mobile games events, finding games and setting up competitions without ever having to be reminded.

Additionally, Ranarr has ensured that gaming activities are properly checked and validated in a timely manner, ensuring our gamers are properly rewarded for their efforts. In the past 90 days, Ranarr has checked and approved over 130 PvE activities and 58 PvP activities.

I am honored to have the opportunity to recommend Ranarr for this award. Congratulations, bud. Keep up the solid work!

Primary reason

Ranarr has been a vital member of the Fist staff during his seven month tenure as Magistrate. During that period he has show an incredible ability to provide consistent activity for our gaming community, as well as provide internal advice and support to the Fist for current and planne3d platform support.

Since assuming the role as M:Fist last December, Ranarr has diligently worked to validate and approve gaming submissions within the 24 hour window to the tune of over 190 PvE/PvO activities and 117 PvP activities. His eagle eye for details ensured that all members who took part in a gaming event were properly rewarded for their effort.

Additionally, Ranarr was instrumental in the testing and implementation of the clubs only site-supported mobile game: Star Wars: Force Arena. Ranarr played more matches during the testing phase than any other member in the club, and provided all the necessary metrics to ensure the game met the criteria for full site support. Additionally, he took the lead on helping to maintain activity for the game by running a Force Arena competition, which had a sizeable turnout.

Ranarr’s greatest impact during his tenure came in the form of his management of the Galaxy of Heroes Weekly Squad competition. For six months, Ranarr organized, ran, and validated weekly Squad Arena events that provided first-level crescents and incentive Clusters of Earth. His careful monitoring of the competitions uncovered possible exploits in how screenshots were being utilized, and led to a full overhaul of how that game was supported through the competition system. This overhaul was directly linked to the decision to remove incentive clusters from all future competitions, in order to maintain one standard throughout the entire DJB. Ranarr’s attention to detail not only improved the competition experience for members playing Galaxy of Heroes, it helped to improve member experience for all future gaming competitions.

Ranarr has been one of the best magistrates I have had in my tenure as Fist. He is hard working, patient, and incredibly pleasant to work with. I have little doubt he will continue to excel in this club, and I hope that this award will serve as a small token of my thanks.

Congratulations, Ranarr. Job well done.
