OUTSTANDING COMMAND PLAYER AWARD
====================================

Tim Smolen (OPS, USS VALHALLA) Since coming on board, 
Tim has been a driving force for spurring roleplaying 
with all the players, whether the new arrivals or the 
old veterans. He has brought his vast enthusiasm for 
the game and his skills as a storyteller to his role 
and it is very muchly appreciated by all. He has even 
taken over a few tasks of the XO, which has helped me 
out considerably. A welcome addition to the crew!

Susanne Dubrov (XO, DS13)- Ms. Dubrov has done a 
wonderful job in complimenting the sometimes-chaotic 
genius that is Sean Murphy (heh heh) in pushing the 
story line of DS13 ahead.  Furthermore, Ms. Dubrov serves 
as an outstanding example on how to successfully integrate 
new players into a unit.  Indispensible, in a word.

Reggie McKamie (CO, USS DAEDALUS)- Mr. McKamie, since 
bringing DAEDALUS over to Gold Fleet, has done outstanding 
work in making the changeover a smooth one while continuing 
to plow forward with the ship's stories.  A veteran CO who 
knows his job and does it- well.

Ed Bell  (CO, SB SAIKAI ) For being the best absentee CO we 
could ever wish for.  He has tried to keep up despite the 
fact that he doesn’t know how stable his email access will be.  

Scott Ramos  (CO, USS YAMATO) I'm nominating Scott because not 
only did he get thrust into this job at the last minute, and was 
very gracious about taking it, but he had to listen to me rant 
and rave.

Markku Herd (XO, USS ANDROMEDA) For always coming up with original 
and entertaining ideas


	



OUTSTANDING PLAYER AWARD
==========================


Rob Meier (MED, USS FEARLESS) I'll let you write
the text of the award.


Lena Rose (PRO, USS CIRCE)- Far and away the top posting 
player in all of Gold Fleet in terms of quantity.  The 
quality of those posts is a match for the quantity as 
well; Ms. Rose mixes character development with plot-movement 
most effectively, giving her character depth while moving 
the larger plot forward.

Antje Bechtoldt (OPS, USS DAEDALUS)- The anchor of DAEDALUS,
Ms. Bechtoldt takes the direction set by her command team 
and runs with it, effectively moving the plot forward while 
bringing others along for the ride. Effective at connecting 
with new players and veterans alike.

Sean Murphy (MCO, USS CIRCE)- "The Old Master" has seen this 
list more than almost anyone in ASR, yet Mr. Murphy continues 
to show us all just what a Marine character should be.  He 
continues to be without peer at twisting the plot into surprising 
(and usually destructive) mutations, and in general creates nothing 
but good fun for all.

Rob Meier (PROCUREMENT, TFS)- Mr. Meier has done yeoman's work 
for Task Force Sierra since joining the unit, plowing forward 
with the unit's story lines in the murky underworld of espionage.  
More than anyone else on the unit, he has kept it afloat with 
his intelligent and intriguing posts.


Alan Rogers (OPS, SB SAIKAI )For the Greenhorn award, not that 
his a greenhorn per say but he is to SAIKAI and he brought his 
character in with a bang and new mission too.

Merrica (COU, SB SAIKAI )She has supported the unit as counselor 
backing up every post where she was included. She even posted 
when posting levels were low.  

Lena Rose (CMO, SB SAIKAI) As our biggest poster both with her 
NPC’s and her PCs when she was OPs of  Saikai having recently 
been replaced by her own wishes.  She even found her own 
replacement for OPS and has taken over Saikai’s medical department.

Karen Fainges  (CMO, USS YAMATO ) For hanging in there even when 
we were comtemplating closing the unit. She posted when no one else did.

Tim Smolen (?, USS YAMATO) For hanging in there even when we were 
comtemplating closing the unit. He posted when no one else did.

Tim Smolen (OPS, USS ANDROMEDA)His character has always been a 
great officer...now Commander Quest is regaining some of the 
humanity that the Borg stole.
 




OUTSTANDING NEW PLAYER
======================
Dan Genaw (FCO, ORESTES STATION)- Mr. Genaw is the top-posting 
new player in Gold Fleet, barely beating out Justin Anderson of 
DS13.  This is an outstanding achievement for Mr. Genaw, as it 
is often a challenge just to get a new player active and into 
a unit's storylines at the beginning.


Ralph Phillips (COU, USS VALHALLA) Another new arrival to the 
VALHALLA although you would have never have guessed it. He has 
brought a very enthusiastic writing style and his posting has 
been outstanding. Ralph has fit right in, and is already posting 
with the other members of the crew as though he has been a member 
for months. Excellent work, and welcome aboard!

Federico Colnago  (SCI, USS AMBERJACK) for The Greenhorn Award. 
He's added a great deal to this unit as our new Science Officer.






OUTSTANDING UNIT AWARD
======================
USS CIRCE- The CIRCE posted nearly twice as often as the next-closest 
unit in Gold Fleet, all while tackling large, meta-style posts in 
creating some of the highest drama in the club.

Blue Fleet Outstanding Unit citation this time goes to USS VALHALLA.







MOST IMPROVED UNIT AWARD
========================
USS DAEDALUS- The DAEDALUS has emerged as a consistent performer since 
it joined Gold Fleet, and the work of the command team and crew are to 
be commended for it.
