I have here a REC from Alanna of House Ekky- She feels that former QUA Betja Jun deserves a Medal. I also Agree totally. So i will paste her REC and then add comments of my own at the end. Thank you.

Clan leaders,

You may already have this in hand, but if not, I'd like to recommend Betja for either a Grand Cross of the Dark Side, or a Sapphire Blade (I'm not sure which is more appropriate).

Betja took over running Ektrosis after a couple of less active QUAs had sent us into a bit of an activity lull. His enthusiasm and encouragement brought us out of it and we have (I believe, although I haven't checked) won every major competition we've entered since he took over. He also helped to write and run an inter-clan feud (which we subsequently won of course :P) and host more run-ons and small competitions than I can remember. He's been an active IRC presence, has outlasted a couple of PCONs and CONs (always the mark of a good QUA!), and is only leaving now because real life pressures no longer leave him the time required to hold the post well.

It would be nice to thank him for all he's done for Ektrosis over the last year or more.

I can also say that Betja before RL grabbed him from his duties as QUA was a lead by example. Meaning he set the example in what an active member having fun should be. He was always on time with his reports, spent a gross amount of time on IRC chatting with his members and many more besides. He as Alanna stated lasted thru two or more CON's and PCON's.

For his dedication and loyalty to the Clan His house and the DB at large i would like to Award him the Sapphire Blade.

Thank you.
