Unit Awards

All DS 101 Crew
Outstanding Mission Award: Presented on SD 14.0823 to DS 101 commanded Captain Alyza.

In the words of EJ, the Ombudsman who issued this award:
    Today, Stardate 14.0823, I would like to commend all the players on DS101. You have completed an outstanding mission. You worked together and have shown all of us what a great unit you are. While I was not a playing character at the time, I was a silent reader following you along on your adventures. And I have to say, It was THRILLING. Each of you were a crutial player and all of you contributed to its success. While being inventive and outrageous, you never left the relm of believability. (I do believe that is a word, right?) Your solutions to many of the challenges you faced were absolutely amazing to read. And so, now that I have Aly 's approval, I would like to award DS101 with the Outstanding Mission Award. Congrats as you all have earned it.

All DS 101 Crew
Outstanding Unit Citation: Presented on SD 11.0210 to DS 101 commanded Captain Alyza.

In the words of Raven, the DS 101 GM who nominated the unit for this award:
    DS101's posts have ranged from 'brilliant' down to simple excellence, from the Ambassadorial rescue on the Dergrad homeworld to the demise of the HIKURU, the post quality continues to remain at that high level in the present storylines.

    Many of you will only see those posts on the Newsgroup, but I am sure many have noted their quality. Most of you do not see the other side of DS101 which makes them particularly deserving of this award. The team work and friendly atmosphere which deals with any problem almost as soon as it arises. For that you will simply have to take the word of the GM. This award is thoroughly deserved by ALL the players (both fleet AND civilian) involved in the unit.

Record Setting Month

DS 101 set a record for number of posts in one month, highest in the fleet of 113 for the month ending SD 9.1230. This record remained intact for 2 years until the USS COCHRANE broke it SD 12.0131 with 126 posts. It is quite an accomplishment to have such a remarkable record stand for such a long time. The command staff at the time was CO Aly Shapiro, FO Shaun Darlington, and 2O Kevin Thigpen. The whole unit should be proud of its history and achievement.
