	Crew's Choice Award Awarded 01 May 2012 @ 12:16am Nominated by Lieutenant JG Drusilla McCarthy	I would like to nominate Jonathan due to how he has stood up and helped me, especially in the last few days. He wasn't afraid to throw his character into a JP which may not have suited but because I needed help, he stood up to the base and offered me that help. He's always willing to jump into jp's weather it be we need the EMH NPC'ed or a computer NPC'ed, Jonathan jumps into the senerio and always manages to make what he writes both believable and enjoyable to read. As an individual, he is also willing to give you a shoulder to cry on, or a pick me up to just make you laugh. The XO can sometimes easily get lost IC because of all of the work required both OOC and IC, I for one couldn't wish for a better XO either IC or OOC.
	Departmental Service Badge: Command Awarded 05 Jul 2012 @ 11:21am Nominated by Command Master Chief Markum Quinn	As our fearless XO, Holiday has shown a desire to not only lead by example, but also with a passion so many times lost in the hiatus of being the person after the CO. I have had the opportunity to post with him since day one, and every time since then, he has continuously been an officer that is the very essence of what a First Officer should be.

	Unit Citation Awarded 06 Oct 2012 @ 5:06pm Nominated by Lieutenant Theron Rhodes	Time and time again I have seen over the last several post, that the player for Ltcdr. Holliday has drawn out the best in other players to make a story much more enjoyable to read. I see this as the quality of a leader, who I'm sure, if not already, will soon have his own command.
	Crew's Choice Award Awarded 06 Oct 2012 @ 5:11pm Nominated by Lieutenant Commander Evelyn Coleman	For Crew's choice award, I pick Holliday. This man been thrown in the center seat and had to deal with all kinds of hardships that the Captain should have been through. Not to mention all the OOC stuff Tom had done to move the mission. Not to mention putting up with my nonsense. So he deserves something.
	Antagonist Award Awarded 19 Nov 2012 @ 4:56pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	This player has shown exemplary skill in portraying one of our two mission antagonists, General D'Grath (Klingon Intel Chief). Throughout the course of 10+ mission posts, the general was a well-crafted and to-the-hilt character. His one-liners written in perfect Klingon were excellent and campy, and the character turned into the most fun antagonist to read. Through a series of battle and torture scenes, the general slowly revealed his main plot and motivations. It was a pleasure to have such a gifted writer for this role, and I think Commander Holliday is much deserving of this award.
	Captain's Personal Merit Awarded 07 Jan 2013 @ 5:29pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	Once again, my XO has stepped up and has proven himself to be the most reliable and dependable person on the sim. He has advised me many times this month on various issues, and I would be severely hampered without his guidance and assistance.

	Good Conduct Medal Awarded 07 Jun 2013 @ 6:48pm Nominated by Commander Scarlet Blake	For managing to be involved, or at least be a part of the organisation, of so many different Away Teams and surveys during the Frontier mission, as well as shouldering the responsibility of looking after the bridge and ship in the Captain's absence, and all without a single word of complaint.
	Non-Player Character Award Awarded 07 Jul 2013 @ 11:02pm Nominated by Commander Scarlet Blake	For a highly entertaining portrayal of the EMH this month. He has the characterisation down to a fine 'I'm a Doctor Not a....' art.
	Tour of Duty: Deep Space Awarded 10 Aug 2013 @ 5:34pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	Awarded for successful completion of Episode 03 - Frontier, a deep space mission.
	Library Excellence Ribbon Awarded 10 Aug 2013 @ 7:31pm Nominated by Command Master Chief Markum Quinn	for his ability to provide great tags and easy to envision posts. Also, his posts are easy to read and are consistently accurate to the mission.
	Professional Merit Awarded 05 Sep 2013 @ 10:20am Nominated by Commander Scarlet Blake	It's been great seeing the spark in Holliday with the impending danger of the Borg approaching! He's showing a fiery side of himself which is very enjoyable to read as part of the story.
	Crew's Choice Award Awarded 06 Oct 2013 @ 12:22pm Nominated by Commander Scarlet Blake	I enjoyed the twist of Jonathan being abducted by the Borg very, very much, as well as his excellent penmanship as 'Legatus of Borg' and his valiant effort in fighting the Borg before being stolen away from us.

	Antagonist Award Awarded 05 Jan 2014 @ 4:58pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	Awarded for playing the most chilling villain to date, Legatus of Borg, and making him a truly formidable and scary opponent who oversaw the assimilation of several of Galileo's crew.
	POW Ribbon of Sacrifice Awarded 05 Jan 2014 @ 4:58pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	Awarded for being captured by the Borg and assimilated, and then for successfully being rescued later on in the mission.
	Ribbon of Committment Awarded 05 Jan 2014 @ 5:29pm Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	The unsung hero of every sim, Holliday has been the best XO I have every had the pleasure of simming with. His constant activity and devotion to the sim are immeasurable, and so is his dedication to our game both IC and OOC. With a plethora of duties to perform, Holliday not only meets our high sim expectations, but also surpasses them at every turn. I never cease to be stunned by his GMing ability, and Galileo as we know it would not be possible without him.
	Gold Service Merit Awarded 06 Feb 2014 @ 11:11am Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	Awarded for two years of service aboard Galileo.
	William Riker XO of the Year Awarded 09 Mar 2014 @ 9:40am Nominated by Rear Admiral Lirha Saalm	I have come to know Tom ever since he joined Galileo when we first became an operational sim in early 2012, and he has never ceased to amaze me with his outstanding participation and commitment to our game. 2013 was a very busy year for the sim during which we engaged in and completed one shore leave plot and two full missions. From an OOC aspect, Tom was my right-hand man who supported and assisted me at every turn. He has consistently replied to every email and PM which I (and other crew members) have sent him, offered me advice on how to deal with various situations, and stepped in for me when I was bogged down with RL commitments. On our sim, his OOC duties include reviewing all applications, welcoming all new players, JPing with all players, liaising with all DHs, reading all posted JPs and checking for continuity, helping to manage our Yahoo! Groups page, enforcing our sim activity rules, and dealing with the occasional disgruntled simmer. In addition, Tom possesses some of the most overall technical Trek knowledge I have ever seen, and he advises all players on our game about the different technicalities and procedures for various situations. These can range from questions about our torpedo launching systems, to questions about the molecular structure of a new alloy. It truly is incredible the amount of assistance he provides, and I include him in all of our mission planning for him to look over and critique in order to provide us all with the most realism possible. Most recently he served as our Borg expert and was instrumental in assisting all of us by giving tips on how to portray the Borg as accurately as possible. In-Character, Tom plays excellent characters and is an extremely active writer. His main character, Holliday, is the somewhat-stereotypical hard-nosed tactical type who prefers to shoot first and ask questions later. This has led to some very fun and interesting character development as Holliday learned to adjust to his role aboard a science vessel, where shooting first is generally frowned upon. Holliday, as a character, is very deep and complex, and he has grown significantly as he has developed over the past year. Most recently, Holliday was assimilated by the Borg and forced to serve as their representative, Legatus of Borg. Legatus was the name chosen by Tom as the Latin word for diplomat, and it was extremely chilling to see Holliday as the lead Borg character in the mission. Legatus not only attempted to assimilate Lirha at one point, but also oversaw and participated in the assimilation of several other Galileo crew members. Very disturbing! Tom also plays our beloved EMH, our sarcastic, witty, and temperamental photonic friend who always seems to be called into action when the going gets tough. Tom's knowledge of the medical field is amazing -- probably because he works with published scientists IRL -- and he plays the good doctor to the hilt each and every time. In addition, Tom plays a great Scottish engineer named Riley Cameron, who is equally as fun to read and demonstrates supreme technical engineering knowledge. Between these three characters, Tom is immersed in our sim and always active and participating, the hallmark signature of a great XO. IC, Holliday is Lirha's best friend, and OOC, Tom has also turned into my best friend. He is an XO who I know I can depend on and who takes the initiative to get involved, and he also goes above and beyond his duties. He always has a positive attitude, is always friendly and welcoming to our new players, and loves to write with every member of our crew. I could not imagine trying to run the sim without him, and it is so rare to find such a strong XO that I feel blessed every day I log in and write with him.
	DeForest Kelley Humour Award Awarded 10 Sep 2014 @ 1:49pm Nominated by Commander Scarlet Blake	For seeing Holliday let his hair down and even have a moment of being lost for words in 'Liquid Musings'!
