Grot. A one-syllable name of no particular pizzazz or attractiveness. Yet, it is one that has passed through many a members’ and leaders’ ear — even the DC’s! This lizard-man is well known for his insane dedication, a high warm-blooded activity for someone who needs a heating rock, and a fierce willingness to help his djb peers both in and out of clan. Participating in 86 competitions since his last promotion, Grot has earned himself 4 Diamond, 11 Ruby, 9 Amethyst, 15 Sapphire, 4 Emerald, and 3 Topaz Crescents. This was all within four months! His gaming efforts, 44 PvP matches and 12 PvE activities, had netted him 5 Pendants of Blood, 254 Clusters of Fire, and 70 Clusters of Earth in that time frame. Writing a total of 11,519 words of fiction for 13 fiction activities, the lizard had gained 39 Clusters of Ice, while his refrigerator art had been awarded 6 Clusters of Graphite. Additionally, he has been busy in the ACC and has 3 finished matches under his belt. Grot’s accomplishments don't stop there. With completion of 7 more SA courses, he had earned 2 Dark Mavens and a Dark Savant. Grot’s insane level of activity had earned him a Sapphire Blade! Only a Knight and already having such an award under his belt, or in this case, on his belt.

Grot extends a helping hand wherever he believes he can help. He had assisted the Voice in several tasks including: competition gathering and markdown formatting for Voice Report #13, collecting questions to the Voice from telegram into a document, proofreading comp material, and filling in templates for the Collective Chronicles: Crew It entries for the Collective time Wiki. In fact his wiki work has been the focus to many a project he’s volunteered to do. These include the ongoing Selen Development Project, Arcona wiki revamp, and Voidbreaker development project. In December, he had been named Wikipedian of the Month due to his activities there, receiving a Dark Side Scroll. Grot has been driven to promote and grow the Qel-Droma’s and Arcona’s gaming community. He’s currently running a cluster race for Qel-Droma, and has ran 4 unrelated and various competitions since his promotion to JM4.

To see this club, our clan and house, everything expand and grow past anyone's expectations is Grot’s drive and he won't rest till he does his part to make it so. And what better way to accomplish such goal but to focus on what truly makes the club a reality, the members. Grot is open and friendly to his peers, quick to help them with questions, offers to collaborate with them, etc.

I am pleased to recommend Grot for Equate I. Congratulations! The galaxy is your sandbox and we can't wait to see what more you build within it!

What is there to say about Grot that hasn’t already been said? Honestly there isn’t much that this murder-lizard hasn’t done. Everyone’s favorite Trandoshan is always buried in some project or up to his ear-holes in one aspect of the club or another, be it the Shadow Academy, running competitions, writing fiction, creating beautiful refrigerator art, or gaming with his peers. There is so much that he has done in just the brief period of time since his promotion to Professional. He is a shining example of activity to those around him and I would be thoroughly surprised if that doesn’t continue to hold true.

In addition to his stellar trackable site performance, Grot is an incredible asset in many other aspects as well. I might argue that his greatest contributions come from activity the site doesn’t actually track. First and foremost, he is a near constant presence on Telegram, always willing to make people laugh, proof fictions, or just engage with anyone and everyone. Additionally, he is constantly looking for someone to assist. He actively seeks out those in leadership positions and asks to take on challenges, or projects, or really anything he can get his claws on. In my (admittedly short) time as a Battleteam Leader, he has approached me on several occasions to suggest competitions and projects; in fact, I had his first proposal in front of me within 24 hours of taking the office. He has done wonders in ensuring a smooth transition between my predecessor, Lucine, and myself and I am incredibly grateful for his efforts. All of this, on top of holding a position on the ACC staff as a judge, is more than we would expect of any other member, but is perfectly in line with what we have already seen, and will continue to see from our Trandoshan friend.

Congratulations, Grot. A well deserved promotion. I’m already looking forward to doing more paperwork with your name at the top. May your hunts be ever bountiful.

Sometimes you get the member who's active, needs no motivation and little direction. And sometimes you get a Grot, who's active, self motivated, and even after you've given him a pile of work, he keeps bugging you for more. Since obtaining his last rank, Grot has turned something like twenty thousand words for the Selen Development Project into legible, well formatted wiki articles.

He's also been a boon in Telegram and in general activity, which Zujenia I'm sure went into full detail on. My contribution to this fantastic recognition is to say thank you, Grot, for being awesome. Well done, you deserve it, see you here again in six months or so I'm sure.

And here we are again! Grot continues to distinguish himself as an exemplary member of Arcona. His rise through the ranks has been meteoric due to his constant activity. Since his last promotion, he has participated in 86 competitions and has written 11,519 words of fiction. He continues to frequently volunteer for projects, and his efforts have even earned him a Sapphire Blade.

But the numbers alone do not fully describe Grot’s efforts. He is perpetually present on Telegram, where he is a constant source of conversation and wisdom for the newer members. He is also willing to help others with anything from character development to fiction proofing. He is a valuable resource, and an asset to both Arcona and the DJB.

Grot is tireless and passionate in his work regarding the DB. For all of his tireless efforts, I am proud to recommend him for promotion to EQ1. Congratulations, Murder Lizard 2.0! Drinks are on you tonight. You can thank me by never making any more refrigerator art.
