• About the player: After a hiatus of three years I decided to try simming again and stumbled across Starbase 118. Normally I read some of the stories of the ships I join, to get a feel for the writers and the ship. But seeing SB118 uses a different method, it was gonna be a surprise where I'd end up.

Award	Name	Date/Assignment	Citation
	Silver Palm	239606.24 USS Gorkon	With the kind of casual hilarity of someone who is doubtlessly smirking when she writes some of the classic lines in her sims, Samira has this year come in swinging with wonderfully funny one-liners in her sims and boosted the morale of our crew with her sparkling creativity where the plot needs it most. Taking over the Gorkon Quote of the Month duties, she runs the monthly poll of collated best lines from each and every sim, ensuring everyone gets their golden moment, and does so with dedication to the craft each and every month. Active on Discord, she crafts clever lines and encouragement for everyone, making the ship feel brighter every time. For her continued devotion to getting those laughs remembered, Samira Neathler is awarded the Silver Palm for this year!
	2020 State of the Federation Address	239701.29 USS Gorkon	It’s no surprise to find Samira Neathler gracing this multi-commendation list for the year, however her writer might think entirely differently! While most of the commendations here have seen the writers thrust into the spotlight for one reason or another, Samira works tirelessly in the background. Commended by her CO for her good humour and efforts, she is a reliable source of stability on the Gorkon, providing direction for a flagging plot point, or tags for simmers at a loose end. She combs through every post on a monthly basis to kick off the ship Quote of the Month contest on the forum; a big job, but the contest is celebrating nearly two years of continuity thanks to her dedication! In conjunction, she is also commended by the Training Team for her unwavering devotion; volunteering for classes consistently and providing a dependable backbone for each class she takes part in. Her simming ability is second to none and each cadet who participates in a class with Samira has one of the best examples available in the team. Keep up the good work, Sami!
	Neelix Award	239706.24 USS Gorkon	While simming is the activity that brings us all together in the first place, there’s so much that goes on behind the scenes to keep our ship feeling like the little community it is, and Sami makes every effort to do so much for us. From running our Quote of the Month poll every month without fail, volunteering reliably in the Academy to usher in new talent to the group, and injecting a fun bit of life into our Gorkon Discord, Sami makes the ship feel that little bit more alive. For her efforts in this, we award Samira Neathler with the Neelix Award with wholehearted gratitude for everything she does. Congratulations!
	LOS 1 Year	239706.28 USS Gorkon	For those who have been members continuously for one year.
	Boothby Award	239706.28 USS Gorkon	Presented by Quinn Reynolds: "Week after week, one name that stands out in the Academy is that of Samira Neathler. She's a stalwart member of the team, volunteering her time and energy whenever she can while knowing when she needs to step back for a week or two to recharge her batteries so that she can continue giving her best — a balance that's trickier than it seems! In every position she fills, she stands out as an exemplar of that role; her sims are beautifully written and set a fantastic example for our cadets, as an XO she keeps the class running smoothly with her organisational skills, as CO she supports both the cadets and the other members of the training team by offering feedback, insight and encouragement. The nominations consistently spoke of what a fun and welcoming environment she makes for our cadets, and how much she inspired and encouraged our newer trainers in their own path through the academy. For all these reasons and more, I'm delighted to present Samira Neathler with the Boothby Award. Congratulations, Sami!!"
