Service to the Brotherhood, through the ACC, can be achieved in three main positions apart from direct leadership; Judge, Trainer and ACCLive! Judge. Each of them has specific duties while, at the same time, maintaining a lot of similar aspects. A primary part of any position, and integral to the ACC staff itself, is interaction. The staff interacts, in one way or another, with the body of the Brotherhood on a daily basis. Whether opening a battle as a Judge, posting and commenting as a Trainer or sitting on IRC waiting for the next match as a Live! Judge, ‘face time’ with the membership is inevitable. Most staffers start green and have to wade through a lot of muck before truly being accepted by their peers who are not on staff. Others come from positions of leadership and fit right in with the operations of the Centre – but neither is any less skilled. Their job can be taxing, it can be boring, it can be exciting and it can be nerve racking – above all, it can be thankless. The Grand Cross of the Dark Side, an award for service to one’s Clan in areas meant to encourage competition and interaction between members, has been selected as an award appropriate in the ACC. It will often come with no less than 6 months active duty, a good rapport with the DB membership and an ability/work ethic that is often above reproach. <br> SW Brujah Tamalar is currently one of the most active Judges on staff. His battle ratings are sound and he is not quick to act in a matter that he is uncertain of. He has no ego about his position and, save one or two rare cases, I am given nothing but good feedback about him. For six months he has been consistent in his duties and risen beyond his primary duties to help with ACCLive! Despite the ACC’s Live! staff, SW Brujah can often be found running battles and even fighting one or two. In the ‘slow’ times of the holidays, school mid-terms etc. he is also one of the first to make sure that the queue is up to date and that nothing sits too long. He is a very hard worker, but above that, he is a great worker. It is my pleasure to thank him by recommending him for the Grand Cross of the Dark Side. ~DA Dalthid, Combat Master.
