I would hereby like to request a promotion for Jedi Hunter Orv Dessrx d’Tana, who has currently fulfilled all requirements for promotion under Clan Arcona’s promotions guidelines, which can be seen at: <u>http://arcona.darkjedibrotherhood.com/promotionguidelines.html</u><BR><BR>

Orv has fulfilled all of these requirements, as follows:<BR><BR>

Be in contact with your House and Clan:<BR><BR>

Orv has a 12 hour or less email turnaround period and is on IRC daily.<BR><BR>

Have two of the Leadership exams completed:<BR><BR>

Orv has passed Leadership Fundamentals, General Leadership, and Leadership Applications<BR><BR>

Decide on your Shadowcrafting Path: <BR><BR>

Orv has chosen to follow the _ Path<BR><BR>

Request your Warbanner: <BR><BR>

His Warbanner is displayed on his dossier<BR><BR>

Promote and run a competition for your battleteam, successfully: <BR><BR>

Orv ran the Arcona Cryptoquiz Competition <BR><BR>

Participate in at least fifteen activities: <BR><BR>

Orv has participated in the following competitions and activities: <BR> Submitted to Cabal Cronal Animal Logo Competition, <BR> Arcona Trivia (Took first place) (06/04/07), <BR> Arcona Trivia (05/23/2007), <BR> Dajorra Consortium Logo Submitted (May 19, 2007), <BR> Dark Voice Logo (http://flickr.com/photos/borkweb/532267998/), <BR> Facetious Fiction (5/27/2007), <BR> Galeres Run-On: The Coming Storm, <BR> May MT's: Graphic Submission (Submitted an Exodus Drawing of Jac Cotelin leading his team to battle http://farm1.static.flickr.com/200/504890897_6af1296878_b.jpg), <BR> Participated in Arcona Trivia (5/16/2007), <BR> SA MB Trivia Submitted 06/04/07, <BR> SA Trivia Submitted (05/28/2007), <BR> Submitted to "Murder Most Foul" (Second Place) <BR> Submitted to the Logo Competition, <BR> Summer School 2007, <BR> What Sith Is This?

Do one, or a combination of:<BR> -Earn fourty Clusters of Fire<BR> -Complete five battles at the Antei Combat Center<BR> -Write fifteen pages of character-based fiction<BR><BR>

Whilst Orv has not technically completed these requirements, I feel that his efforts making the new Clan Arcona website from scratch, spending more than 30 hours of his time coding it into a valuable and well-used addition to the Clan’s information base more than equates to the effort expended in earning either 40 Clusters of Fire, Completeing 5 battles in the ACC or writing 15 pages of fiction, and what’s more, is just as creative as the latter two, if not more so.<BR><BR>

Write either a High-quality fiction detailing the creation of your lightsaber, or create a high-quality graphic depicting your lightsaber.

Orv designed his own lightsaber which can be viewed here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/borkweb/510458247/<BR><BR>

As Orv has completed all of these guidelines, and more, I would like to respectfully request His promotion to Dark Jedi Knight. <BR><BR>

Primary reason

Orv Dessrx is one of the most talented coders in recent years in the Dark Brotherhood. His skill is only surpassed by an altruistic urge to help everyone, no matter the length of the project, and with total disregard for his own reward. In the recent months since he has joined our club, he has done countless scripts, hosted a website for a clan feud, and most importantly, he was the sole programmer of the Outer Rim War 3 battle tracking application. The work he has put into this latter project was simply amazing. With a total time of over 20 hours of coding, Orv's battle tracking application has changed the fate of the Outer Rim War. The competition was suffering greatly from a lack of a competent ranking system, as the spreadsheet and reporting methods were very hard for all the hosts. Orv came up with this system in a week, and it completely changed the course of the competition from then on. His system is complete with live rankings, an easy reporting feature, countless statistics and rankings and so much more, all fully automated. The complaints towards the reporting system stopped after the release of this program, and people could enjoy their gaming without the confusion regarding reporting matches. Even after the system was designed, Orv did not just leave it alone, he continued to improve it, adding more and more administrative, or visual improvements to it.

Orv Dessrx has gone beyond his normal duties, helping the Outer Rim War in a way we could never fully reward him. This medal does not reflect just the DB's gratitude. Each and every other club that participated in the tournament would like to express their thanks to Orv's coding and cooperation. Without his work and dedication, I do not think the war would have even continued pass the third week.

Requested by
Orv Dessrx
Primary reason

Orv Dessrx entered the Dark Brotherhood with auspicious tidings, quickly setting forth to learn what it is that we do and lending his own considerable talents to assist those in need. Always cheerful, humorous and engaging, Orv never hesitates to toss out a pearl of wisdom to any that are eager to benefit from his knowledge or his insight. In addition to the numerous accomplishments outlined below, Orv has also recently agreed to take on the rather involved task of streamlining and revising the Outer Rim Wars’ reporting process via an online interface. Early glimpses of this show the same promise and attention to detail that he brings to everything that he does.

I am also truly honored to submit this promotion request on behalf of his Master and his Battleteam Leader. I’m quite certain that Orv is deserving of it.

OT Malidir – Quaestor: House Galeres of Arcona

<><><>

Since his last promotion Orv has started or completed the following: Set up the Feud website, worked on a Galeres website, Created a sub-site service, constructed a plugin for accessing DB services in the sub-site service, did a character picture for me, completed the Leadership Applications Exam, HTML Basics Exam, Force Philosophy Exam and Runon Stories Exam. He sent in a Feud GFX entry and began 3 Feud ACC battles.

Orv has added a lot to the Qel-Droma phyle and is a significant presence in the ongoing clan feud. In my opinion this level of activity is above and beyond the commitment or capabilities of most members and should be recognized.

Jedi Hunter Etah Araya – Krath Tetrarch: Qel-Droma, House Galeres of Arcona

<><><>

As my Apprentice, I am terribly biased, but I truly believe Orv deserves his promotion, simply because he is well, Orv. He is insanely active, taking part in any and all competitions he can lay his hands on, he is a great coder, brilliant graphics artist, a friend to count on, a pleasure to have around and just awesome.

Orv is one of the rare people in the DB that does what he agrees to do, and he hardly ever refuses something you ask of him, but if he does you can be sure it is for good reason. Tasks I have given him have always been completed quickly, and to the best of his ability. There is no such thing as 'try', Orv doesn't 'try', he doesn't waste time wondering if he should or should not, he just does what needs to be done and moves onto the next project that needs help.

He has completely a number of 'sideline' graphics projects for various members of the Brotherhood, including a family crest for the Master-at-Arms, Master Rokir, character pictures, designs for websites, input on ACC posts, feud events, helping other members with grammar / spelling, coding projects for the DB itself…the list is legion and I'm sure to forget nearly half of what he has done.

The point is simply this, Orv has completed all the Arconan requirements for his promotion to Guardian, and then he went beyond that. Helping where he can, completing projects on his own, and proudly carrying Battleteam Qel-Droma, House Galeres and Arcona, through everything he does.

Congratulations Orv, this is well deserved.

Well what can I say about Orv? Ever since joining he has been active and took part in everything he could. Orv can be seen on IRC daily and is pleasure to work with. Orv has completed basic requirements from the arcona promotional guidelines and has done much more than that. He has helped with a Galeres Wiki page, is taking part in Master Student Program, and has done 5 Competition Submissions. Selen, his master, approves this promotion. Congratulations, Protector!
