Betja is a true Taldryan-ite quiet as a mouse, but then springing back into life to play a major role in ensuring our clans victories! This, by its very nature, makes his activity difficult to reward. However, I feel this promotion is an excellent way of rewarding years of hard work and loyalty that have brought Taldryan into first place in GJWs and feuds. Most recently, he gave stirling service during our feud with Arcona and the recent GJW. A talented writer, hes willing to put the time and effort into producing really first rate competition entries of the highest quality. Thanks for everything, Betja. You may have extra ice cream tonight! ;) ~Lannie
Betja Jun has done so much for Ektrosis, and almost all of it was before my time (Which is a shame). He hasnt been promoted in almost three and a half years! He has done so much in that time. Betja is always around when we need him, like in major competitions. Way back in the Fourth Great Jedi War, he led Ektrosis, and had 11 different entries. He had a four-month stint as Roll Master of House Ektrosis since his last promo. He had a great showing in the 2003 IGs placing in 10 events and participating in 10 more events. In the Fifth Great Jedi War, Betja participated in 9 events, placed in one and finished 15th overall in Taldryan. In the last Krath Rite of Supremacy, Betja helped Taldryan come in second in the Run-on event, and participated in a lot of events helping secure a victory for Taldryan. Betja placed second in the Battle-plan event and participated in 6 other events in the recent Arcona vs. Taldryan feud. In the recent Sixth Great Jedi War, Betja Jun competed in 5 events and earned Taldryan 537 points helping the clan greatly. He also placed second in the battle plan event in the GJW. Betja has been a very clutch person for Taldryan, he always shows up when we need him. He is a great member to have and is always active and helpful on the message boards and mailing lists. He has done a ton of small competitions over the past three and a half years. Betja Jun has more than earned this promotion to Dark Side Adept. Congratulations Betja, you really earned this! Thank you so much for all your hard work over the years.

After the Great Jedi War came to end we started to look at who needed to be awarded. Betja turned out to be in the top 10 in Taldryan, 36 out of 250 total GJW participants. He managed to get in on several events, earning 3 placements, and scoring the Clan a large amount of points that in this close conflict turned out to be critical. What was most important was the fact Betja is an older member and when it came time to step up and help the Clan in our largest competition, he was right there ready to go. Looking into Betja more this can only be seen even more.
In the last three years since he was promoted, Betja has been active off and on in small events up to our largest. He participated in numerous Independence Games, heavily in the Fourth and Fifth Great Jedi Wars, the Krath Rite of Supremacy last year, the Clan Feud with Arcona this year, and now the recent Great Jedi War. When it came time to pwn there he was for his Clan, this is true devotion without thought of reward or personal glory. You can truly count on Betja to show up and jump in on anything, giving it all he can. While I dont know you as much as others here may, I can see your dedication to Taldryan. With your time in the Brotherhood, long term service to the Clan, and continual help event after event, I think youve achieved the rank of Dark Side Adapt. Congrats!

In the DB there are some people that have just had a great, positive influence on everyone they have dealt with. Betja is one of those people. I've know Betja for a little over five years now, and I can't think of anything but good thoughts about this members. He is funny, he is hard working, and he is there when you need him. For years on end, Betja has come to the aid of Taldryan, giving his time for the benefit of the clan. He guides both new members and old members alike and is a beacon for what I would like to see out of many long-time members.
Dark Adept is an important promotion in any member's career. This is a milestone not only for Betja, but also for the DB. It is not often that we award DA to a non-Summit or DC member, but I can say without hesitation that this award is deserved. Betja truly belongs among the elders.
