Despite a very strict real-life schedule, Jac has managed to siphon some time for very essential DB coding efforts. Most notably, the "retired" Grand Master has nearly enough single-handedly made the position of Knight Commander of the Brotherhood obsolete by creating a new member tracking tool. The tool allows for the Brotherhood leaders to see how their membership is progressing through the ranks over the course of a<br> certain time period. The original requirements just called for some data output, but Jac went above and beyond by creating a full-scale statistic-results system. The whole process took him around 20 hours. What I appreciate most is that Jac stepped up to do this project after<br> two Seneschal assistants failed to meet their deadlines on it.<br> <br> Jac has also spent a good deal of time on the customary code fixes that the DB site requires. He has added some new pages, ftp accounts, and subdomains as we've required and is a constant resource for us. So much for his supposed retirement. <br> <br> This Grand Cross of the Dark Side is our saying thanks again for your continued work, Jac.

This is one award that is overdue, yet still not enough really for what Jac has done. In the Rite of Supremacy earlier this year he stepped out for Taldryan and participated in every event possible, placing in fictions, Battleplans, and debates. Behind the scenes Jac was helping just as much keep things going and pushing the Clan. <br> <br> Jac personally did better than anyone in the RoS coming in 1st place overall. Without Jac's dedication to the Clan in participation and assistance, we probably wouldn't have done nearly as well, may have even lost. We already awarded him in Clan, but he needs some representation on the DB side for his incredible work. A late congrats Jac, major props for you this time!<br> <br> ~CON Duga Taldrya Arkarso

I am honored to award Grand Master Cotelin the Grand Cross for his contributions to the Great Jedi War. Grand Master Cotelin provided coding support for the Great Jedi War website and the Great Jedi War Ladders. Grand Master Cotelin’s dedication and support in coding led to one of the most successful Great Jedi War’s in history. Thanks Jac!

Jac, what a pwntastic person in every respect. I’d award him more, but he has everything. While Grand Master Sarin awarded him for his work on the website in setting up the GJW and fixing problems along the way, this is for his Clan participating. Jac showed up in a total of 14 individual events covering all areas in the war. He earned placement points in the JO/JA/JK ladder, one Poetry event, and one Graphic event. He earned 2nd place in three Fictions and 1st in another. Beyond his excellent participation and placement records, he was the man behind our Run-on. Jac setup the opening and directed much of the Run-on like a well-oiled machine. I’ve personally thanked him many times for that sole effort. There is no one more deserving of something for this war than Jac.<br> <br> Congrats on your well earned reward in service to Taldryan during the Seventh Great Jedi War. Thanks for the awesome work!<br> <br> For Taldryan,<br> <br> Obelisk Primarch Duga Taldrya Arkarso<br> Consul and Son of Clan Taldryan<br> Planetary Viceroy of Karufr, Regent of the Kr'Tal System

Jac, you are by far one of the most awesome persons I have met so far in the DB, your willingness and dedication to Taldryan is incomparable out of 17 events you did 16 while actively supporting the Taldryan Summit, trans-scripting the Crusade website from an image-based to a plain text version and sending it to the House along various tool tips and hints on how to best participate in the events. For this kind of dedication there can be only one reward and this I am most happily requesting for you: A Grand Cross of the Dark Side. Thank you Jac!

There’s only one Cotelin, there’s only one Cotelin!.. For those of you who don’t get that reference, watch more English Premier League. For the rest of you, it’s quite simple. There is nobody in the Dark Brotherhood who has shown the extended dedication, drive, and desire for excellence than Jac Ae-Sequira Cotelin Taldrya-Cantor.

Let’s ignore the fact that Jac works in a stressful job that requires him to work nearly fourteen hour days. Let’s skip over the fact that he’s the proud father of two newborn girls, and let’s ignore that he did five of the six events in Phase 3 of Chapter 1 from a hospital. He’s still, without a doubt, one of the single most active members that Taldryan has. More than that, he’s also by far one of the most skilled. When Jac puts his mind to excellence, he achieves it, and his record in recent competitions simply stands that fact on its head, and demands it be recognized.

Jac Cotelin puts more effort, and love, and devotion into the Dark Brotherhood in a day than the average member does in a year, and he does it for no reason other than loyalty. He’s a Grand Master. He has two Golden Lightsabers, and a litany of every award, title, and honour that the Dark Brotherhood can offer him. Jac works hard not for recognition, but for the betterment of his unit, and the Dark Brotherhood as a whole.

But I would like to recommend that we recognize his efforts and contributions anyways, with the awarding of a Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

Jac, what can I say? You do everything possible for Taldryan, and I'm jealous of your excellence. I mean, everyone is jealous of your excellence, but only a few have to live with the honor and pressure of being a Taldrya alongside you; and as much as that sounds like a complaint, I wouldn't want it any other way. Just seeing what you do and how you do it has been amazing; it's a lesson in exactly what I strive to be.

How you've only missed one event with the way your life is unfolding is mind boggling; and yet that is selling your contributions short. You've explained the events to help those new to Vendettas and to those with limited time. You've inspired the House more than once with your amazing speeches. You're doing everything I wanted to do when I was Consul; and you're just in OFH with the rest of us. Hell, during this last phase no one was sure you would be able to do as much as you did with the birth of children drawing near(Congratulations are also in order for their happy arrival!), but when everything came in you had done all but one thing; and the only reason that one thing didn’t come in was because you literally couldn’t have done it. If this were a story of some kind, no one would believe it. No one should be able to continually top themselves like you do, and yet when you do it no one is surprised. I find that amazing and yet I've watched you do it for over nine years now.

If I'm honest, I think this recommendation might mean more to me than you; I think it's the first time I've been able to help you get an award, and that makes me extremely happy. Yacks is our will, but you're our heart. I just want to thank for being able to draw me back in when I feel like I can't do it anymore; I truly appreciate it. For that, more than anything, I am honored to give you this recommendation for a Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

It’s Jac, bitches.

Jac has been Grand Master twice. He has two Golden Lightsabers. He could never do a damn thing ever again for Taldryan or the Dark Brotherhood and still be revered as quite literally the best member the club has ever had (and very likely ever will have). He could be (and for the sake of sanity should be) content with being the finest example of roster candy. That is not who is he - so the crazy man soldiers on. Jac was a monster of participation (And placing) in the Dark Crusade - as well as seemingly placing in damn near everything. Jac’s constant assistance to Taldryan’s summit through the crusade in the form of advice and planning surely contributed to the house’s success.
With all that in mind, I strongly recommend ole Jaccy for the Grand Cross of the Dark Side. Yay Jac!
