It makes me feel egotistical and a narcissist and I don’t like it. That is not the aim so please be gentle. There are a few reasons why I feel I should be Battalion Commander. But I will try to make it to the point. Past Experience: Through my 2 ½ years on Synergy and after my time in 41st, I have built a reputation for being able to help and fix battalions to a decent degree. Examples being Rancor, 21st (In a way), 104th, and helping with the Battalionization of SO BDE. In short, I have done it before and I am confident I can do it again. My Home: 104th was the first battalion I ever joined. When I left it was a sad day, but I moved on. Then came 2020 and I was asked to return and help. I answered the call and did everything I could to fix the battalion, which eventually led me to becoming Wolffe after serving under 2 Wolffe’s prior to myself. After I did what I needed to do I resigned and left the server for a bit before getting dragged back into Rancor. I regret nothing. After spending some time in SO BDE, I noticed 104th wasn’t doing too well, so I made the trip back once again to assist and now find myself going to Wolffe again. My Drive: Even though I haven’t been back in 104th for more than a month, I am very motivated to help this battalion. I am not waiting to become Wolffe before making changes. I have already started going down a list of things to fix, and have expressed these to the current High Command in 104th. For example, fixing the current Negotiations Training doc by replacing it with one that teaches instead of advises (Can’t disclose for it being a training). Another example is starting a “Trooper of The Month'' Program that has some fantastic prizes. Motivating others to do their best at a chance to get it. I do want to say in a more personal message. Yes I have been asked by many people if this is just a way to get a BCMD position and an easy time to powerplay. No, that is not my aim whatsoever. When I first made the decision to leave I had genuine concern for the 104th. It is my home and like many others on the server, each of you have a battalion you consider your home. I came back to help restore it to it’s former glory. I came back because I care for this battalion. Do you understand the lore of your battalion or squad?: Yes, very much so. Availability: In Game: Monday -Tuesday: 5pm - 11:30pm EST Thursday - Saturday: 5pm - 11:30pm EST Wednesday & Sunday: 9am - 12am EST Discord: My job allows me to be on my phone pretty much all day. So I am basically available 17 hours a day for 7 days a week. Only time I am not is when I am sleeping. Estimate of how long you've played on Synergy Roleplay?: 6,982 hours total on Synergy / 54.1 hours in last two weeks (I have been on LOA for 5 days now if you ask why hours are low) Do you have a microphone?: Yes, I do. Where do you want your battalion or squad to be at the end of your term?: TLDR AT THE BOTTOM The Officer Core Adjustment - This will consist of heavy evaluation of all officers in the battalion from WO to XO. This first point is the most important one: Senior Officer Sign-ins will be GONE We have a lot of Junior Officers that need a nudge in the right direction to become Senior Officers. We also only have 1Senior Officer. I intend to have this process take up to 3 weeks. I will spare any amount of time to make sure 104th Officers are at the level they need to be to ensure the future of this battalion. I want to point that this can lead to demotions and promotions depending on effort shown in this 3 week period. Requirements System - Currently we use a Merit System, while the system itself is alright, it still has some minor issues that can be fixed with further examination. Or simply coming up with a new system. One current issue with the Merit System is people complete their Merits and then stop working. One idea to fix this, as weird as it sounds, is removing the precedence that you get promoted when you complete your Merit Requirements. A Counter System that I like the most is a “Requirement Guideline” System. Essentially I lay out all the things you can do to get promoted, then you do them however you want / as many times as you want, and you get promoted by contributing without expecting promotions. This idea directly ties in with the “Officer Core Adjustment” by having Officers be active and take note on what NCO’s and other Officers are doing. Officers being involved directly with the battalion can help improve numbers. You always have something to do even if it is minor. Wolfpack - Requirements / Activity / Standards Requirements to get into Wolfpack consist of 80% of the servers trainings. I intend to get this shortened down to character specific requirements that only involve the specialized trainings for which Wolfpack member they apply to, including smaller basic trainings everyone should have. Activity - I am not one to love sign-ins, but I do feel it necessary to require Named Wolfpack Members to sign their hours in Discord. This will last a maximum 2 weeks to ensure the Sub-Unit is active and well maintained. Standards - This consists of strict discipline, capability in pressured situations, and an RP friendly evironment. The Attack Regiment - I believe 501st, 212th and 104th should be communicating between each other whether it is down time or prime time. Strong bonds and an inclusive environment can help the Regiment thrive. All sides should be willing to reach out, however, within 104th we should initiate reaching out to the other battalions instead of waiting to be contacted. (No ill intent intended) 104th Jedi - Jedi as it stands isn’t doing too bad. We have a few really active jedi that actually socialize with the 104th. However, there are a few things to change and polish. First off, a wipe of inactive Jedi. We currently have 7 Jedi in 104th with only 3 of them being around in TS and in game. This is more of starting on a cleaner slate so we can hit the ground running. Next up, is centering trainings and “patrols / patrol encounters” towards Jedi. knowing how to interact with your Jedi while in combat can reduce the shooty shooty mentality that 90% of people have. Hopefully with this, Jedi will have a better time with 104th. (Not saying they aren’t) 104th Responsibilities - This means responsibilities from SGT - BCMD. Right now the Officer Core is kind of a free for all with tasks. NCO’s know what to do, but Officers are all over the place. I will be putting out set permissions for Officers so they have guidelines to follow It will also be nice to tweak NCO guidelines as well to see how efficient NCO’s can be. (Very Minor Changes) Disciplinary System - We currently have an unused Disciplinary System in 104th with docs written out on how to use it. There are two ways to attack this. Remove it or Reinstate it. Remove: It isn’t used so no one would miss it if the system was removed. Having a Disciplinary team can breed poor officers and that isn’t good obviously. Reinstate it: Only having 1 person being the Disciplinary Team. AKA a CMD+ can have a decent impact on the battalion if utilized correctly. For example, this Disciplinary Commander can review disciplinary actions done by other officers in an unbiased manner, and see if there was too much force applied or not enough. This person would be an asset by teaching other and new Officers how to discipline correctly so they don’t need someone in the future watching over them. Becoming self sustainable by themselves. TLDR Officer Adjustment: 3 Week Evaluation on current positions and ranks. Requirement System: Fix the Merit System’s issues or introduce a “Requirement Guideline” System. Wolfpack: Update Requirements to be more user friendly. Introduce a 2 week sign in period to show activity. Make sure Standards are upheld in that 2 week period. Attack Regiment: Initiate reaching out instead of the waiting game. 104th Jedi: Inactivity wipe. Set up ways to incorporate Jedi more into the Battalion. Be more inclusive in-game. Responsibilities: Update and potentially rewrite Responsibilities from SGT to BCMD Disciplinary System: Remove it or Update / Reinstate it. Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: Yes, I do. Do you understand that your position has a three month term limit and you must reapply after three months to maintain your commander rank?: Yes, I do DISCLAIMER: I am on LOA until 8/7 for a family trip to Montana. I’ll try to answer questions in a timely matter. Thank you

For full dramatic and emotional effect, play the song! If not, Cut some onions! Welp. Truth be told, I'm tired. I've been procrastinating, and I'm at a point in my life where I have no idea where it's going to go. My girlfriend wants to get a house together, I want to focus on a career and making something of myself and truth be told, life isn't getting any slower. I've been playing this server since 2019, and it's brought me many memories, headaches and heart breaks. I don't want to feel like I have to get on because of my position in the battalion, and someone who is more hard working is deserving of it. Plus I played Halo Infinite flighting and that made me feel nostalgic. So, I'm going to be taking my leave. So here's a few farewells. Excuse me if these are sappy. @MarvelOf course you're going to get a mention, lmao. We played Halo Infinite together and that felt like old times, and that's really the drive I've needed. It felt amazing to play a Halo game with you again and just slay bodies, even if they were bots! But those bots could strafe! Couple more months and Halo Infinite will be taking over our lives again, and you know. We'll do the usual, finish the fight and look cool doing it. @justuscloud5 Thank you, Cloud. Not only for being a great guy, but an amazing friend. Since 2019, we've ventured on the server and tried to make our mark. Recently, it was a pleasure to be under you within the 41st and no matter what anyone says. You're a great, caring and funny guy. Just a top lad. I'll miss you, though we'll still keep in touch. One of the greatest Gree's. @KormI miss you man. It's crazy that it's almost been a year since I've heard your wisdom or you cracked a joke about dating my mom. I'm sure you're in Valhalla feasting with Odin and all the old gods. You were an out of the world dude, and I'll never forget how much of an inspiration you were to me. You taught me a lot, and made SOBDE and Null one of the coolest things to me. Ni su'cuyi, gar kyr'adyc, ni partayli, gar darasuum, Ba'buir. Until we meet again. @Metro I'm sure we'll still talk and have countless and endless talks about the good times, 2019 was peak SOBDE. For me at least. As the great Metro Boomin' once said, Make it boom. We'll see each other in DownTown. @Shpack You've got a rough road ahead, but I believe you can do it. You have a warm presence about you that instantly makes you likeable. Don't take your future server aspirations too seriously, and surround yourself with a group of people that will help you no matter what. I believe in you. No more Clanky and Fi dynamic though, and I'm sorry. Though, We'll still have movie nights! @Stockings Thank you for giving me the chance of being in Improcco and Fi, you're a great dude and a great Gett. Take care of yourself. @41st Don't do anything I would do, if it's something I wouldn't do. Definitely do. @Eclipse It's a true shame that I never got to see your shot at Kal, but if you did get it. You would've definitely been up there with the greats, Keep being you and never change. Maybe the fat shaming part. Change that. @Marshh Dude, I can't wait to not hear you bitch about aim assist. On god bro, thank you for being my squad mate in bad batch, you're the second best Wrecker. Though, you're epitome of what Wrecker should be. We'll keep in touch. @Bleach 501st is an ever fleeing memory now, but a bunch of good memories. Maybe you'll learn to stay away from the server, but I understand why you got back into it anyway. Stop ironically saying Eh, and drink milk from a carton like any other person. See you on the flipside, kiddo. @Shockpoint You're the best roleplayer, game master and a great friend. I'm sure whatever you set your heart too, you'll see it through to the fullest. Devote your heart. @Ratio Aha! You won't be able to dumb me again after this! Especially not in SOBDE in general! I'll be gone! I'll miss you because one way or another, you've had somewhat of an influence on me. No more derailing events while drunk by hitting on red female twi'leks anymore. Take it easy, bro. @Crimson Our dynamic as Etain and Ordo was an interesting one, but it did create roleplay! Or that one time we took control of extensive and saved the entire ship. We'll probably end up playing arma together again, wondering why we spend hours doing it but then we'll remember it's to escape Gmod! @WoenyOne day, I'll learn how to play that damn harmonica. We did get off on the wrong foot last year due to me being a hard ass. You're a great guy, and I'm sure we'll see each other in DownTown from time to time, Mister World of Warcraft man! @DennisHaters are gonna hate. You're one of the most capable people on the server, and doing nothing but good things for DU. Keep up the amazing work, and I'll always remember that first recommendation: Doom's Unit Second Lieutenant MEDL Dennis ;) @Caidoon You're actually a swell dude. It was fun hanging out with you on EaW and hopefully we still will, but until then. Stay safe and I hope things start looking up for you homie. @NeptuneI'll never forget sitting with @Fyi and the gang while you make chicken tendies at 4am. Good times, the peak of SOBDE friendship. Fyi, we may not talk anymore but you've done a grand job. I'm proud of you. Neptune, we always talk but one piece is shit. @Dragon@Forseen@Square@Jad I'm not close to some of you, and I was close with some. You guys have done one helluva job with the server, you guys really dragged me back in after you made so many awesome updates and changes after taking the reins. Maybe if the server ever moves to a more updated game, (S&box, Soon™?) I'll come back. To anyone I have mentioned, I'm sure one way or another you've had some sort of way you've influenced me on the server. I'll miss this place but most importantly I'll miss the people. I've made countless memories, lost some on the way and made some in the process. Thank you, Synergy for being such a big part of my life in the last three years <3

SUGGESTION MOVED TO DEVELOPMENT PHASE

Big +1. FYI has the drive and dedication, as well as the experience, to help Naval get better.

Today, at around 5:20 PM EST. Cox was banned for 2 Days. THANK FUCKING GOD! Can I get a #CoxIsOverParty in chat https://gyazo.com/cd72220bb5af8b0c88ec41bf209dab9f

Man was sev and proabbly didnt get anyone

YOOOOOOOOOOOO

+1 Brooklyn has proven to the 104th that he is the man for the job and HC supports him and that is why he was made a commander. I will look forward to working along side you. Nekos are weird This +1 is also me saying I am not going for Wolffe @Taz

+1 Genuinely a super nice guy, and great leader.

o7 man! I'll meet you down the pub for a pint my friend!

AYO how’d you get access to the halo infinite beta, I’ve been trying to get access also rip come join us retired fucks

It'll be good to have you back. The more staff the merrier! +1

+1 With my hundreds of hours on this server I've seen Sixta put more attention to his duty on this server than taking care of his kid

90% of the community used it as an excuse to PVP. That’s it. It wasn’t about the faction. Just an excuse to RDM. That’s not on Dennis. They tried multiple things to change and fix CIS but the server climate killed it.

Hesitant +1 for you misfit, I remember when I was an SA while you were on your 2nd or 3rd go for staff (I think) and it seemed as though you just spammed encounters and small events (that could’ve been considered encounters) just for the sake of doing them and looking better on the GM roster. However, I applaud you for realizing your faults back then and admitting them as well. It takes a good and mature person to admit that, I’ll leave you with that, best of luck my man. EDIT: P.S, I’d also love to see some more well thought out and serious events come from you if you do get it, I think you could be a good GM/GH if you really put your mind to coming up with intricate and story driven events, rather then shoot-em up encounters.

+1 dennis your last few terms this year as doom have been shaky but this next term will be the best

+1 Next time your on I need to speak with you about a new video game character.

+1 CERTEFIED FYI

+1 fyi i like pie

+1 Brooklyn is the only man for the job

+1 UwU OwO

you should checkout rust

His experiment failed bc he made it unenjoyable not because the community didn't want it from the jump
