To say that Muz has been a fine addition to the Dark Council is an understatement. His exuberance is unparalleled. His creative talent is unmatched. The speed at which he completes his work is amazing. As Pyralis would say: "Muz is the only person I know who can do 48 hours of work in 2 minutes." In just under 5 weeks as Herald, Muz has created 240 new sabers from which members can choose upon earning the rank of DJK. Beyond this, he has created an additional 72 sabers for use by the Equites of the Brotherhood. These sabers will be accessible from members' administrative functions when logging in. This is all beyond the consistent work he has done on Custom sabers and Warbanners for our club. The saber project is a massive undertaking that could easily have taken months. Muz completed it in weeks. He has already begun work on some REALLY fantastic custom robes which will replace our archaic "robes." The initial results of his work are quite impressive. I know I speak for the entire Brotherhood when I say that we are all eager to see the final product. Muz has also cooperated with other members of the Dark Council, assisting them with their projects, and has invented some phenomenal ideas for the Sixth Great Jedi War coming up this year. Muz is a consistently available for the entire membership and has written regular reports, keeping open a strong line of communication on his many projects to the membership.
I am most pleased with Muz's initiative and enthusiasm. It is rare indeed to find a member so committed to their ideas and so passionate about helping others. Muz is a true example of what all members should aspire to be. While Muz will undoubtedly earn many more great thing in the future, we think this Amethyst Kukri is a mighty good way of thanking him for his tremendous start as Herald.
Thanks Muz!

This may be a little unprecedented, and frankly I wouldn't blame you if you just sent back an emailing saying "shut up kid and gimmie your lunch money" but I would like to address a tiny issue. For a good while now I've noticed that Muz has been working his ass off, and when I say that I don't mean it lightly. He works a full day at his RL job and then comes home and stays up sometimes until 3 or 4 AM working on the sabers and robes while I handle the Warbanners and miscellaneous graphic requests. He's plotting and planning and trying to figure out the best ways to make this place look simply spectacular. Honestly I couldn't ask for a better person to work with. No matter what's going on in his personal life he's always giving 100% to the DB because it means so much to him as I know it does to you, me and a plethora of other people. Muz really wants to make this place better, not just for accolades and awards but because it's a place where friends can gather and enjoy each other's company, a place where Star Wars fans can hang out and be themselves and have some fun. He cares about this site as if the members were his family, I know because he really does look after me like I'm his little brother, and he genuinely cares about everything that goes on here.
Ok so what's all that rambling have to do with anything you ask? I'd like to see him awarded. Like I said he works his ass off and I believe an award would be a great measure of showing our appreciation for a man who places friendship, honor and dedication above the petty concerns of self. I hope that you take my words to heart, then again I also hope you don't electrocute my head for being so forward. Thank you.
