Another great year has gone by within our RP Task Force. It's amazing how time flies and how many incredible stories you all come up with through the course of it. To show recognition for all that has been done, we are, once again, going to be conducting an in-character Awards Ceremony.
At GAMMA shift on 25 April the fleet will hold an Awards Ceremony. Awards will be for in-character actions of players and presented in an in-character format. Best of all?
YOU GET TO SUBMIT THE AWARDS!
That's right, the awards we will be presenting will be awards submitted by you for other players. Now the submission doesn't have to be a formal IC submission, rather just a submission for a deserving member of the fleet. But, please make sure that you are submitting it for a character, not a player.
So, how does it work? Well, below is a template for submitting an award. Fill it out and send it to me via enjin forum. I will consolidate the awards and admin team will prepare the remarks for the presentation. Awards will be presented in an IC format, so please include some type of reason for the Character to receive the reward, but you can also talk about things the Player has done to deserve recognition by the fleet
What awards are available for submission? We are trying to stick to canon awards as best as possible. The current list of awards we are looking at are as follows:
Star Cross
Starfleet Decoration for Gallantry
Palm Leaf of Axanar Peace Mission
Cochrane Medal of Excellence
Starfleet Medal of Commendation
All of them can be found on the Memory Alpha page and are awards recognized by Star Trek Lore. Feel free to look them up on Memory Alpha for brief descriptions. If you have a recommendation for other awards in the Star Trek universe, don't be afraid to ask about that too.
Finally, its going to happen that some people are going to get nominated, but be unable to attend the event . That's ok, we are working on something for that too, so feel free to submit with reckless abandon!
Here is the format for the awards:

Awardee:
Ensign Kevin Jackson
Award Type:
Starfleet Medal of Commendation
Reason For Award:
Jackson has played in a lot of events I have held for the fleet, and did a lot of vouchers for our applicants. He has also done a great job portraying his character as a tough officer, but one that can make decisions. In-character I think Jackson should receive an award for when his away team saved the lost Romulan during an event I held in July.

Finally, consolidating and finalizing these awards takes some time for the admin team. So, we will be closing submissions on 20 April.
