Regiment you are applying for: Recon

 

Experience: 

RANCOR Battalion [May 2018-December 2020] (*Note, this period of time has numerous breaks and returns to the battalion, due to numerous reasons such as graduating college, taking a break from Clone Trooper to focus on Jedi or Bounty Hunter)

 

Rank: [Private-Major]

 

During my time as a member of the RANCOR Battalion, as it used to be fully capitalized when I first joined, I had worked on many things within the battalion and gone through a number of battalion commanders at the time Ranging from Fizzik to Dragon to Miller and even Merril,  Sixta, & Dennis I believe once I left.  Early on, I wasn’t too interested in becoming an ARC Trooper at the time, since Trauma’s Unit was still part of RANCOR.  For about 2 weeks I still completed the ARC Trainings but stuck around as a TU ARF Trooper. However, I would come to change my mind and finally become a fully fledged RANCOR ARC Trooper. As I rose through the ranks of RANCOR I learned we were adding Alpha ARC’s to the battalion and removing TU. At this point from what I can remember I was a Junior Officer or maybe a Captain.  However, I would go on to become the first Alpha ARC Captain Fordo through the Alpha ARC Tryout. As I believe, Metro was Valiant & Dragon was Blitz at that point in time, but don’t quote me on it. For about a month I would help hold the tryouts with RANCOR HC and Metro to find who would be the other Alpha ARC named characters that we have to this day.  At this point in time, it was extremely rare to see non-commanders host ARC Trainings, but I often helped during Selections & W&T.  Leadership was not the same as it today and only required one host.

 

However time would catch up to me as I would not have the time to continue to be as active in college, so at the rank of Major I resigned from Fordo so that another person can take up a role that requires more activity. I was Fordo for about a month and a half.  I was later granted “Notable Alpha” for my work as Fordo. I was sent to the RANCOR Reservists and granted “Notable Member” by Dragon.   During my Winter break and occasional times I was able to hop back on the server, I would spend it primarily in Rancor enjoying my time with friends.  Later on towards the end of Dragon’s time as Blitz, I would partake in a few key matches of BvB & the championship match.  Later into the Summer of 2019, during Miller’s term, I took up the role of RTO (Rocket Trooper Officer) and helped recruit Rancor ARC’s into the specialization.  I became one of the earliest participants to receive the Alpha ARC Designation in Merrill’s training.  First I acquired Elite ARC, but on my second attempt I would achieve Alpha Status, and take up Alpha-07.  I’ve since had to change it due to the ARC wipe, but I now hold Alpha-44.

 

Key takeaways:

- Initial activity was high but due to outside factors was forced to take a step back.

- One of the early Alpha ARC’s and the first Fordo, playing a large role in Alpha-ARC at the time.

- Helped in ARC Trainings where needed, with high command

- Stayed a loyal member of the battalion for a long period of time. 

 

41st Elite Corps, Improcco Company [December 2020- Present]

 

Rank: [Major - Executive Officer]

 

Following the ARC wipe that had occurred, I questioned my use in Rancor as an ARF Trooper on the reserves.  I didn’t think it was suitable so I decided to join a new battalion with my friend Sixta, and it turned out to be the 41st Elite Corps. Wren was the current BCMD, and it seemed the battalion was hurting for members.  I ended up joining, one to one as a Major. Immediately, I would take up the role of Heavy Lead and would stay that until I became Commander Gett.  Being honest, I did not do much for the Heavy specialization of the 41st Elite Corps.  I didn’t see the point of it being needed in a Recon Battalion. However, I would search for members to become HVYO & would gladly accept members.  I even wrote up a document for Heavy training, involving suppression, formations, and tactics.  Later I became the BARC lead which is my favorite part of the 41st.  This is now known as MECHL.  

 

While Unkindled was lead over the AT-RT, I took up BARC Trainings.  I gathered individuals within the 41st trustworthy enough and made them my BARCO’s, until the position was scrapped under Cloud. Here I would coordinate with the BARCO’s & myself, and we’d simply host BARC Trainings for the server and keep a log of them.  Eventually, post-Wren, the BARC Roster was broken and in need of repairs.  During Clouds first term, I went ahead and created a new BARC Roster, far different than many of the past.  In its creation, I understood the annoyance of having to be re-trained in the same thing over and over again because someone new had taken a position and wanted to look like they were doing something by making a new roster and wiping a training.  For the new roster I transferred each person that the old roster still had, some battalions were not so lucky as the original roster sheet created errors for them, but most battalions were added to the new roster. The new roster is completely automated and ensures troopers data is always logged and saved for the future.

 

Due to the continued work I put in the battalion I was able to progress myself up into 41st HC as a Commander, and soon later Executive Officer. This wasn’t necessarily my first command position (See Less Relevant Experience), but it was my first as on a clone whitelist.  While in the HC I’ve since taken up the role as Intel Lead in the battalion and try to focus heavily on our ever fluctuating roster and getting more people into Intel to help make sure nothing is missed. Lastly, I lead Improcco Company, the newly added sub-unit in the 41st Elite Corps.  As it joined the battalion I made sure there wasn’t a tryout barrier of entry.  Instead, I wanted to find battalion members who were active, showing their loyalty to the 41st, and being a role model to the other members of the battalion. 

 

Key takeaways:

- Joined the 41st as a Major 

- Became BARCL & reformatted the BARC Training & BARC Roster

- Current Intel Leader

- Current Executive Officer & Improcco Leader Commander Gett

 

Less Relevant Experience:

 

Jedi: Elder Knight Kendrys [June 2018 - Present] 

 

Ranks: [Youngling-High Jedi General]

 

Focusing on my important roles in the order .  In June 2019, I chose to focus on my Jedi primarily and I became a Consular Manager and a Sage Manager.  Oftentimes, I would host a Consular trial everyday and a Sage trial twice a week. In RP, I worked with Jocasta Nu at the time ( I really can’t remember who it was, but it may have been Newt or Lie) and I helped with writing a document for studying that holds a lot of lore of the Jedi Order. Soon enough I became a Jedi Master with 2 other newly promoted Jedi Masters. I went on and waited some time and became Adi Gallia with the 91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps. When they were on the server. While working with them, I helped work towards creating a Lightning Squad Jedi Trial, and worked with BARC Trainings while Adi. I also kept up the standard of being a Master hosting trials.  I helped many branches and managers by hosting trials with them as well as Knight and Youngling trials. Many times, I would be taking sometimes up to 3-4 Youngling/Knight trials per week. With the continued dedication to the Order, I reached the rank of High Jedi General until I would choose to resign from Master.  I was granted the usage of Purple Crystals and I was granted Honorary Master as well.  I was Honorary Master for perhaps 3 or 4 months until it was wiped. To be honest I did eventually become one of those guys at council meetings saying “This new idea is bad, the old way was better.” However now, I see a fair amount of improvements within the order. Moving forward, I gladly accepted my role as an Elder Knight and rarely make appearances on the Order now.

 

Bounty Hunter: Stockings Versock [February 2020- Present]

 

Ranks[Freelancer-Guild Leader-Hunter]

In the guild, I became a Guild Lieutenant under Hisoka (Hero) and would regularly host Bounty Hunter Evals for new members.  It was particularly fun to train new BH’s into the Guild. In the role I played I also would grade BH’s bounties and make sure whether or not someone’s bounty was completed properly or improperly.  A simple accept or deny role. Eventually Hero resigned, and a new Leader was needed and I was voted in by the Clan leaders at the time. From there I would be Guild Leader from April 2020 to July 2020. I took up the position looking to improve the guild as best as I could at the time.  I recall Forseen coming to me and seeing if I could bring it back as it had nearly died out.  Working a full time job did make it more challenging, but working from home was helpful nonetheless.  I would implement the creation of BH Rank progression, Cartel, Friendly, and Lethal.  They were a tier system and players could feel as though they are progressing their character.  I also liked to implement time based bounties, as well as fun goofy ones occasionally.  As Guild Leader I always made sure to enhance RP while on the server.  In the later half of my position, I wanted to make sure there the lieutenants could handle the Guild and keep it from being removed. Although I wasn’t the greatest Guild Leader and many after me have made it far better than I could imagine, I like to think that without me taking it up, it may have ended up like how the CIS faction currently is. Now, I spend my time as a hunter gathering renown and looking to partake in the BH fun occasionally. I’ve been honored in the Guild with the Infamous Hunter due to my time as Guild Leader.


 

Why should you become a Regimental Commander?:

 

As an Executive Officer, it may seem odd to go for Regimental and skip the process of becoming Battalion Commander and so forth, but I think my extensive experience within the two battalions plays a large role in my decision to apply for this position.  I’ve been exclusively in the Recon Regiment my whole time on the server spanning 3+ years at this point.  Even when I played on my jedi character, I was still helping the Recon Regiment by working with the 91st Mobile Reconnaissance Corps. I put a lot of effort and hardwork into many things that I put my mind to and strive for near perfection in the execution of anything I do.  My work in handling multiple responsibilities within the battalion shows that I can handle the many responsibilities of the Recon Regimental.

 

Do you understand the lore of your regiment?:

Yes I do!

 

Availability:

Work Week: 5:30PM - 8/8:30PM EST

Weekends: Varying, but typically 10AM-12AM

 

Give a brief overview of your achievements on the server:

 

I think a lot of them were touched on in the Experience section but for those I’ll have a list here:

 

Rancor

  • Reached Major in only 2 months of playing on the server

  • Former Fordo just as Alpha Class ARCs became a thing 

  • Acquired Elite ARC Status in first Alpha Designations Trial Hosted

  • Acquired Alpha ARC Status in third Alpha Designations Trial Hosted (3rd person overall through the designations, not including people given it without passing.)

  • Contributed to winning BVB with Rancor

 

41st Elite Corps:

  • First time gaining the role of Commander & Executive Officer

  • Rebuilt the BARC Program with a new Roster without the need to wipe any currently trained players

  • First time taking up the role of Intel Director

  • First leader of Improcco Company as Gett

Jedi

  • Reached the rank of High Jedi General, I believe I was the 3rd person to reach that rank at the time. 

  • Was granted Honorary Master for a period of 3 or 4 months once it was wiped by the following Yodas (Can’t remember who)

  • Current & former Consular Manager, former Sage Manager.

  • Helped lead the 91st Mobile Reconnaissance as Adi Gallia alongside whomever the Neyo’s were at the time.

Bounty Hunter:

  • Former Guild Leader & Lieutenant

  • Currently a Guild advisor & infamous hunter.

 

Do you have a microphone?: 

Yes I do!

 

Where do you want your regiment to be at the end of your tem?:

 

At the current moment, I think the Recon Regiment is in a very good place.  I want to do my part to maintain this presence, and continuously improve the regiment.  At the end of my term, I would like to see the Regiment continuing to move smoothly as time progresses,  all while keeping a fun and enjoyable atmosphere.  I would hope to see a better connection between Rancor & 41st in a sense of mission teamwork. 

 

How do you plan to improve relations within your regiment?:

 

One of the things I’ve always been in the community is personable.  I can strike up a chat with anyone on the server about almost anything.  I think this trait has gotten me very far in the community.  I think I’m someone who’s great with communication and it’s perhaps one of my key expertise on the server.  Utilizing it help communicate between two battalions something I can surely accomplish. A lot of this work can be shown in my duty as a Liaison for the community. In which I am an approachable confidant for the entire community.

 

One of the things Mitchell did in the regiment was keep up with a report that the commanders in each battalion would fill out.  I would like to continue this as it could be a useful way of checking up on their recruitment status within each battalion and falls within the rules of regimental to upkeep a track of recruitment.  I know many Regimentals like to focus on building the relations between the battalions, but I think Rancor & 41st have a mutual friendship. They also have competitive friendship as well.  I don’t think this is bad, but instead I think it’s a healthy balance that helps to build each battalion up.  I would like to host competitive trainings that aren’t TDM Sims but rather fun reconnaissance trainings on the other planets, or even on the event server if possible. 

 

As for battalion specific things, I have some things I’d like to help with.

For Rancor,

I would like to help oversee & help them host Alpha ARC Designations with the Alphas in order to provide these on a relatively common basis with the current Valiant or Fordo.  I would plan to also partake in the ARC Trainings with the main battalion if they require any extra helpers that may be unavailable. Another thing is help try and entice their SNCO’s+ in hopes of having them also host BARC Trainings (If they’d like to, a few can host already but very little host, since both battalions are able to host BARC Trainings since Cronis was Recon Reg.)


 

For 41st

I think a culture of goofiness still occurs occasionally in the 41st, but a lot of it has changed.  I would look to try and continue to bring forth the nature of proper behavior and subordination.  This would go for any use of the BARC Speeders and, in any case, the AT-RT’s, if they make a return to the server.  The 41st is looking to move people into positions where the command believes they can thrive. Being Recon Regimental, I’ll be looking to help the command to guide these people to where they believe they should be. Lastly look into getting more use out of the Alien Translation program, by meeting with Gamemasters or holding a training with the 41st to get them more interested in AT and have them set for any sort of occurrence where AT is needed.

 

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 regimental commander rank?:

Yes I do!

I’ve worked with Stockings for a very long time. I can honestly say he is a hard working individual and does his absolute best with whatever position he holds. 
 

This is someone that definitely restore the Recon Regimental position to its former glory.

No I didn't think I had to, nor did I think it would be an issue.  

As for the Alpha ARC Designations, I wasn't aware I could help out prior, I've never seen anything about it, with people outside of the battalion  helping out.  Knowing better now, that'll be nice to come through and help out!

I have worked / known Stockings for a long time. 
His two greatest strengths in my opinion are his management and personability. 

His management skills are pretty evident Guild Leader, Sage high jedi general, XO in 41st, Major in RANCOR. Pretty impressive by itself but I have been led by him firsthand and in situations where most people might lose there cool and break battle comms. He remains calm and is able to lead the people involved / de-escalate. I also think his ability of management as a whole has been refined over the last few months as Commander/XO of 41st, and his ability to delegate and manage was directly shown as guild lead, overseeing and mediating the multiple clans and with 41st during clouds LOAs / absences in which he was first in command.


In most of the groups i've join with him he is the first to be able to connect with people and find a friend and form a connection with a person. He's done this in a lot of places arma groups, gmod servers etc. He even did that here on Synergy. I think this is very helpful if he is recon reg as it may help connect the regiment more sort of like what I see with Attack, and from an outside perspective seems like something recon needs. 

+1 I truly do think he is well suited to a reg position and will do great things for recon.

I’d like to elaborate on my +1 a little more. Stockings is an excelente individual. To start off he has many qualities that would make him a great Regimental. Some of these qualities are how friendly he is, his profesional demeanor, and his excellent communication skills. Stockings is one of the most friendly persons I’ve ever meet, as soon as I joined the 41st he made me feel at home, whenever I have interacted with him he has always come off as a very friendly guy, I’ve even seen that sometimes there will be shy people or simply people that don’t talk too much, stockings is never afraid to start a conversation or to include people in conversations, he does not think about himself, he thinks about everyone, no one is ever left out when he is in the room. Aparato from his friendliness he is also a very profesional guy, as an XO he is sometimes tasked with important decisions in the battalion, this also applies as a liaison. Stockings always has a profesional demeanor whenever handling any issues, he is not biased and is always fair with his decisions and how they can affect others, he is extremely hard working and puts a lot of effort in the intel team and on the server as well. He is incredibly profesional and can handle any situation thrown at him. On top of this, he has great communication skills, whenever I’ve spoken to stockings or when I hear him speak to others he never comes off in a bad tone or way, he always manages to open people up and make them feel part of a family, whenever handling a problem with a trooper or anything else he always comes off in a good way, this guy can tell you bad news in a good way. Stockings is seriously a great choice for this position and seeing him and working with him tells me that he will do great. Stockings has my utter respect and I will be there for him every step of the way.
