In appreciation of your service to the Shadow Academy from Feb 2nd, 2017 to July 31st, 2017

Ood stepped up during the open beta, and offered to proof every single description in all the items available to members. He reviewed each one of them and gave me item ID and details of the fixes needed that covered over 100 items as noted in my change log. After reviewing and making these fixes the quality of the possessions system at launch was greatly improved. For his initiative to take on this task, and completing it in a timely manner in support of a better experience for members, I recommend this Steel Cross. Thanks Ood for your support!

Anyone who knows Ood knows that he has a penchant for two things: an "Ood" sense of humor and, more importantly, the ability to flawlessly execute projects that he's been assigned. Under Bubba's Headmastership, Ood began work on yet another proof of the latter quality. The Shadow Academy is comprised of almost 80 courses, and when you take into account not only the course notes and exams but also the images in each, it's a huge number of files. Previously, there has been no easily accessible and usable backup of this information... until Bubba put Ood on it.

This was not a quick project, nor an easy one. It involved the kind of thorough mind and attention to detail that anyone familiar with Ood's work knows is his hallmark. And, like so many other things Ood has touched in the SA, his project went above and beyond its original remit: while backing up the information into a GDrive archive, he also set it up so that the SA staff would have places to easily work on their course(s) without disrupting the live versions. This has made our efforts to do a full audit on the SA so much easier, as we can grant access to a certain course or group of courses easily for people that need it while maintaining quality control over the process. Even after he stepped down as Praetor, Ood continued his work on this project; he even taught my Praetor, Marcus, how to do it in case we ever need to again.

Ood has been a fixture in the Shadow Academy for over a decade, and so it's fitting to me that this project - backing up the entire thing in a usable format - went to him. After all, the vast majority of what he was working with was stuff he had a hand in getting written, edited, created, or posted in the first place. This Grand Cross is a fitting reward for someone that has accomplished such a service to the Shadow Academy. Thank you, Ood.

-Farrin Xies, Headmaster
Marcus Kiriyu, Praetor to the Headmaster
