Service Accommodation - Patton and Letsul

Posted on 01/07/2022 @ 7:51pm by Captain Cornelius Harrington

Greetings All,

For our first two awards, I wanted to take a moment and present some special people two awards. To both members of the Command Team, Patton and Cara I would like to present the Service Accommodation ribbon.

The Service Accommodation is awarded to the crew member who performs his/her character’s job and advances above and beyond the job description they were “hired” to follow. Below is their nominations sent in by members of the command group.

Nominee: LCOL Jack Patton

"Patton is an enjoyable writer and an in-depth mission organizer. He has been a deep part of the game for a while and is great at driving the story. He had been central in developing an exciting arch of the game, which had played a pivotal role in drawing in new players, and getting the whole crew excited to log in every day." ~Adira

"Howie is himself an inspiration to others, not only to myself. What he brings to the game cannot be measured in words but in his contribution to the overall community, he is a part of. I have known him for years and he welcomed me back into writing and I haven't looked back since. His imagination and enthusiasm are infectious and his knowledge of Star Trek itself is almost on a par with his Scottish accent, almost. He is a superb man, someone I consider a good friend as he encourages all those around him to keep the world we write in alive with ideas, little nudges if need be, and his personality that makes me know I can go to him with anything. He is warm, caring and his love for a kilt knows no bounds. His contribution, time, and effort make him indispensable, and I consider myself quite lucky to be able to write with him on many projects." ~Aer

"Howie, what can I say. He is a very creative individual and I've enjoyed working with him. He enticed me into bringing in Brina as his Marine XO. It felt good to bring her into play and was great fun. Now I get to be on the command team with him and I am even more amazed than before. He is someone which ideas can be bounced off of. He has a great love for writing and it shows. He is definitely a dynamic individual and approachable. I can even call him a friend. He works well with Jaker's and I like it." ~Cara

"It's hard to imagine this game without the dedication and energy that Howie brings to the game. He is a passionate force and one of the most creative individuals I have met within the RPG world. When I joined I had severe reservations about Marines, in fact, I hated Star Trek Marines. However, Howie in his day-to-day playing of Lt Col Patton has slowly changed my mind on marines in Star Trek. As a member of the command staff, Howie has grown into someone that I consider a friend. I trust his opinion and have learned to listen to him (sometimes). Thanks for all you do my friend, keep up the great work, and I can't wait to see what 2022 brings" ~Harrington

Nominee: CMDR Cara Letsul

"Cara has been instrumental in the life pulse of the game. She fully engages every player in the chat rooms as well as in storylines. She ties together loose ends and keeps track of mission status. There have been times where she sought out additional players to help a struggling department for a post while ensuring those struggling do not feel stepped on. She offers meaningful advice to the command team, which has proven invaluable when important choices are set before them. Without Cara, the game would not thrive as it has." ~Adira

"Cynthia has only been with us for a short time but it feels like she has been with us for years. I love how she plots and schemes, and ends up throwing ideas at me like confetti at a wedding! Over these short few months I have valued her greatly here on Poseidon and I feel like we have become such good friends as a result. I always know I can talk to her about anything and I usually get a sensible answer hehe. Cynthia screams enthusiasm, love for the game, and her imagination knows no bounds. We would definitely be at a loss without her and I hope she stays with us for many years to come. We can only get madder." ~Aer

"Cara came in like a wind from the East sweeping by. She knocked us for a loop in a good way. Cara has a knack for making you really delve into the heads of a character and flesh them out. She is never one to back away from an idea. First as my XO in the Marines and then later as a member of the command team, I have found Cara to be a vital asset and dare I say, friend. She is more than a simmer, she is a storyteller and a world builder. I am a better simmer and writer for knowing her. I look forward to what surprises she has in store for us all as the next year dawns." ~Patton

"It's hard to imagine Poseidon Station without a Cynthia in the game. While only being with us for a short time, compared to some, she had found a way to blend her heart, soul, passion, and drive into every facet of this game. Someone once said, "Creativity doesn't wait for that perfect moment. It fashions its own perfect moments out of ordinary ones." I think this fits our dear sweet Cynthia. She doesn't wait for a story to come to her, she finds moments within the game and weaves this world out of thin air. She has truly become a pillar in our community and I couldn't imagine running this run without her." ~Harrington

Congrats to you both, more awards to come.. We received 29 nominations.
