| Hello everybody,
I'd like to take the time to speak about a certain Confederation member. What member you may ask? GiggleSmirk.
Since GiggleSmirk joined in June of 2014, ConFed has seen nothing but outstanding work and motivation from him to help further ConFed's future into greatness. While there have been a few bumps along the way, they should not shadow over all the accomplishments that GiggleSmirk has achieved.
GiggleSmirk has spent countless hours on our website rosters page, ensuring that UMC members are organized, active, and up to date. He has also ensured that our Captains and Admirals are as active in Clan as they are in game. Additionally, if you've ever been to one of GiggleSmirks meetings, let's just say you'll leave feeling inspired and ready to get some work done. On top of everything else, GiggleSmirk even got a new Award that he created and was added into the official Confederation Awards.
The list of things GiggleSmirk has done for ConFed is much larger than the short paragraph above. On top of all of that, GiggleSmirk is online every day of the week. On TeamSpeak, and in game. He has trained countless Confederation members how to play starcraft, he has hosted many different types of Events as well. Including Clan Wars, Training Night, and more. His activity is unmatched by any other ConFed member.
GiggleSmirk has recently come to High Command asking to step down from his position as Fleet Admiral due to real life concerns. The amount of respect that I have for GiggleSmirk has only raised.
GiggleSmirk has went far above and beyond his role in ConFed and should be rewarded for his hard work and dedication. I would like to nominate GiggleSmirk to receive the highest Award a ConFed member may receive, a Medal of Honor.
GiggleSmirk has earned this in my opinion by meeting the following criteria as stated on the Awards page;
Quote By making a momentous impact on ConFed while serving in the Clan, going far above and beyond the call of duty.
With positive feedback GiggleSmirk will be granted a Medal of Honor after 7 days from today. Please respond with your thoughts and opinions.
Thank you,
President CrunChy

| Gigglesmirk is the reason why I am even moderately active. Before I joined ConFed and he started coaching me, I would get nostalgia for SC2 and then go away for months. He helped me become decent at SC, and thanks to that I became more active and able to rank up in the clan. He also showed me most facets of the clan workings and by helping him, my capability increased to the point that I can handle the duties I now have as CDA.
He taught me how to gateway expand. For two hours. TWO. HOURS.
Beyond the serious stuff, he opened my eyes to Eric Andre and loads of other hilarious bullshit.
"Neonfire, I try to be your friend, but youre so fucking stupid"
also, Gigglesmirk never BM'ed me enough. Just putting that out there.
In conclusion, I fully support this nomination, even though Giggle will remain active and always rub his Medal of Honor in our faces.

| HI all,
Gigglesmirk has taken time to help coach people, even when those people are not playing his main race. I think he does deserve this honor for his work and dedication.

| It takes a lot of hard work to get to the level of Fleet Admiral. Gigglesmirk earned each promtion with hard work and integrity. Giggle, as a bitter vet, and legend you sir are one of the hardest working "new" members of the clan. Even tho we don't always see eye to eye I appreciate and respect all of your hard work and effort. I know you truly love this clan. You further prove that love when you step down from such a high hard fought position for the better of the clan.
I know you don't like salutes so *hugz* it is

| Giggle, you have been one of the most active and most charismatic members this clan has ever seen. I have seen you go out of your way to help numerous clan members and you haven't murdered any of them with a hammer, not even when you really really wanted to. And god knows you've had cause.
I, and the clan, appreciate your dedication and patience. Good luck with your kid and future endeavors.
PS - you still owe me a game of PvT ya big girls blouse.

| Greetings,
Congrats Gigglesmirk on this nomination to receive the Medal of Honor. You have continued to dedicate a significant amount of time to the clan and your impact within the UMC is obvious. While I'll forever mess up my Mothership Core, I am also appreciative of the countless hours we spent practicing Starcraft. Keep up the great work!
Cheers,

| Darwin,
Kudos to you for making a highly supported, documented, and most convincing argument that I've seen in several years on these forums. I will tell you that this is not a new problem in the SC2 Era and has been the root of some problems. Though, being a completely unbiased, I think you have offered up solutions that High Command should seriously consider implementing as they seem to solve every issue you have brought forward.
in regards to Giggle, regardless of his behavior, I believe that his service to the clan should still be "rewarded". Potentially substituting a Service Cross for a Medal of Honor, as his service to ConFed is not in question.
Keep up the great work, sir!
Cheers,
Oblivion

| Quote This is from a larger message I sent to JCOS, Giggle asked me to share it here. I've tried to tidy this up to the relevant bits. Above are a lot of words about how important eSportsmanship is to me. This was originally meant as a confidential document on the state of our Chobo team.
I asked Darwin to post the response publicly because that was the point of this nomination thread to full see if I did deserve the Medal of Honor.
Quote Giggle knows this was wrong. Hell he came out of the game, BMed the guy, then came to my channel and told me he had. Somewhere between bragging and daring me to call him on it. My only response at the time was to ask 'Did you win'. Sadly, Giggle couldn't bring himself to say no, only throwing a bit of a tantrum and repeating 'DID YOU NOT LISTEN I SAID HE PROXY HATCHED IN TO MUTAS'. The lack of responsibility and maturity is appalling. It's akin to saying 'It was a ZvZ match' when asked if you won or not. The inability to own your mistakes prevents growth. It's just bad form. And on top of that he really did BM the guy in and out of game over just using a build. A bad kinda cheesy build. For this, the league quickly and correctly dropped a 3 week ban on him. His response was 'It's not like I expected to play next season'
I did know it was wrong and afterwords apologized to my opponent and explained that I am under a lot of stress and that it was in bad form. This apology came before my ban in Chobo, and before Darwin told me that he would be making this statement. I was not attempting to call Darwin out or challenge him I was attempting to have a dialogue about it and gauge his response on how he felt, because he was busy I interpreted as he did not care so to him it was not a big deal hence why there was no apology to him, I however felt like it was a big enough deal to apologize to Gramm. The response of me saying that I do not expect to play next season was to remind Darwin that losing me for the next three weeks of Chobo were not that big of a loss as he would not have me to use anyway.
Quote I like Giggle. He's got issues. His issues are his, not the clan’s. But he's making me look bad in public. He's making us look bad to Chobo. And he does not appear able to own that. No where in this did I hear 'Darwin, I'm sorry I did that and made an ass out of us' or to the clan as a whole. I didn't hear that because he thinks that behavior is OK, or he doesn't care, or he cannot bring himself to. None of those reasons is OK. I don't need an apology, the clan does. If he doesn't know behaving that way isn't OK it's because the clan leadership is not slapping him down hard enough for it.
As stated above I misinterpreted Darwin's business as not caring so I did not full understand the scope of embarrassing him and the clan. As I have stated before I apologized to the person I BMed not out of necessity but because I don't think its ok and many games that I have played in Chobo my behavior has been beyond rebuke. The leadership has worked many, many times with me and my abrasive personality this is not a situation where they are not, and have not done something about it but a momentary slip up on my part one that I took responsibility for to the offended party.
Quote I haven't taken the time yet to talk to him about it. This is largely a matter of wanting to bring it to the leadership first. If I go talk to Giggle and he has a meltdown about it, I fear it's going to be a situation where I'm no longer willing to move forward with him.
Anyone who has worked with me in the officer program or has attended any of my meetings will tell you that I am quite open to talk to when the talk becomes serious, I am well aware at times I project that I am not a rational person and many times in my drunken tirades I have proven that, However when it comes to real issues and real things that need to get down I am always willing to sit down at the table and discuss matters openly and calmly and have at times distanced myself from the conversation to calm down if I do indeed get heated.
Quote I realize that Gigglesmirk is a complex person in a stressful situation and his service to the clan and time spent coaching is valuable. I enjoy chatting with Giggle often times when he isn't in one of his less pleasant modes. I think overall he's toxic and divisive. He alienates and frustrates people, He's prone to not listening to other views. At the same time he brings a lot to the table in terms of knowledge and when it comes to specifically coaching someone he can turn off most of the Gigglesmirk bullshit and settle down to it. I spent a good portion of Sunday night listening to him do just that with a silver league recruit. I don't always agree with his coaching style but it's valid enough.
The big issue I have with this is the concept that I am not open to different views. I completely am, however I need to believe that you know what you are talking about. The situations in question are basically zerg players trying to tell me how to play protoss. This actually really upsets me as I know for a fact they don't know what they are talking about from the protoss perspective. Its like if a man told a woman what child birth is like. You simply wouldn't know what your talking about. During the coaching Darwin and FallenAngel had some concerns with my coaching and we sat down and discussed coaching methods. As stated before when things become serious the switch gets turned and the more rational intellectual nature takes over (not trolling) and I am more then willing to have a discussion. If you can make valid points and I can tell you know what you are talking about. I can not stress that enough. The concept of my toxicity has been thrown around quite often, and I'll say again what I've said before that it is not my intention to upset people, but bring them into the joke. I am here to have fun and shit talking and joking around builds (in my experience) Esprit De Corps and just like everyone else in the world, there are certain things that will upset me. I speak through aggression, it is a problem and it is something that has been pointed out and it is something I have been working on.
Quote My issue here isn't with Giggle, it's with the behavior and our lack of response. More specifically with our public plan to provide a medal of honor in contrast to the behavior he continues to demonstrate. Not so long ago, right after I joined, there was a conflict that depending on who you asked centered around Gigglesmirk. Obviously that issue was complex, but it remains true that Giggle's behavior is a point of contention and the clan, imo, needs to focus on correcting that behavior.
It is not so much that there is a lack of response, as it is a misunderstanding of me and the role I take in the clan. When people complain about my inability to do the job of fleet admiral, or questioned my leadership one thing keeps getting brought up. Simply put you haven't worked with me seriously. Furthermore it's not a behavior I continue to demonstrate as I am a growing human being striving forward to better myself and people recognize these things. The conflict that you are mentioning is all completely based on a lie. Syn lied to the clan, lied to many many many people. Slandered my name made people not want to work with me. I still talk to Syn, Syn has told me how sorry he is for lieng to all those people and hurting my reputation within the clan. That situation was complex and had they have actually had a measured thought out complaint I would have been much more receptive to Yachtmaster and Syn, As I have with this. Even in there unfair and personally attacking assessments I did attempt to hear them out and listen to what they have to say.
Quote tl;dr I am uncomfortable with BM being ok and or appearing to be rewarded. Makes us look bad.
I am not being rewarded for my BM but all the work that I have done for the clan, however as the adage goes I can build as many bridges as I want if I fuck one goat from then on I am the goat fucker.

| I really would like these references to the Syn/Yachtmaster situation to stop. There were three people that were actually present; Crunchy, Karnage and Myself. (Besides gigglesmirk and syn). Anything that you have heard about that situation, unless it came from us, was fabricated by syn and spread around. This is not a valid point to bring up, and can in no way be used against Gigglesmirk as he was only trying to organize an event, AKA doing his job.

| Nothing of what darwin said has anything at all too do with anything other then the links he provided which revolved completely around CHOBO. I suggest this topic be locked, and any further discussion be moved to JCOS or High Command board. This will just cause more drama at a time of ship launch when we dont need it.

| I think Darwin has put forward a fair an unbiased opinion. Please keep in mind Darwin is just doing his job instead of jumping on a bandwagon and its expected of people in positions such as Chobo Captain, Captain or officer rank to take their emotion out of it and answer truthfully.
For those wondering Giggle and Darwin were on Teamspeak last night happily talking to each other and as Darwin said in his post he likes Giggle, just has a problem with BM especially related to his position in Chobo and the clans reputation.
I agree with the points oblivion has brought up. Giggle has done a lot for the clan and I personally know he has been under some crazy life changing stress. Should he take this out on people on Chobo? no. But he knows he did something wrong and appologized, and even further he ASKED Darwin to post this message in this thread. He is more than willing to air this to the clan to get a fair and uniform result and to be able to give his side of the story.

| I would like to congratulate all of you for your civil discourse. This thread could have easily turned into a flamewar but it hasn't. Good job guys.
Quote 1. Crunchy and High Command needs to make a very firm public statement about BM like the above incidents. I would advocate Giggle be specifically named.
I'm a bit mixed here. On one hand, dick cancer is what you get from fucking goats (or playing protoss), goatfucker. On the other hand you're entirely correct. I think there is a strong distinction to be made between internal bm in jest and external bm where the clan is being represented by a player in an event. The former is hilarious and the latter is unacceptable. I think we all need to make a renewed effort to conduct ourselves professionally when representing the clan. Giggle, cut it out with the goat fuckery.
Quote 2. The Medal of Honor should not be awarded.
Quote in regards to Giggle, regardless of his behavior, I believe that his service to the clan should still be "rewarded". Potentially substituting a Service Cross for a Medal of Honor, as his service to ConFed is not in question.
I think this is an entirely reasonable compromise. Thank you for the suggestion Oblivion. (also we miss you, get on TS more goatfucker)
Quote 3. The rules on BM outside the clan in public events need to be revised to give some specific idea of punishments.
Agreed. This should be in writing so that it is not a debate or controversial when needed.
Quote 4. The Chobo Captain Position needs to be given some specific authority in matters related to BM, Chobo, and extending somewhat beyond that to the clan in general.
The Chobo Captain has the power to allow or deny players the opportunity to play. When CTL mgmt makes their own decisions and puts players on suspension, this may feel a little underpowered. Even so, I would like to keep powers of the Chobo Captain office somewhat separate from general clan powers. I feel like this would be largely resolved if item 3 were properly dealt with.
Again, I'd like to thank everyone for keeping their emotions in check so that we can discuss this rationally. Please continue.

| "The Service Cross is given to those members that assist in directing Confederation Tournaments, both between ConFed and other Clans and within ConFed itself."
That is from the awards page. Although I have done that many a times that's not what this post is about. This post is not about anything but me getting a Medal of Honor. I do not need to be given this award. Furthermore I do not want a Service Cross in lieu of a Medal of Honor. The work I did for Confed in my opinion does not need to be recognized simply because it was my job and it was my pleasure to do. This is not me being petulant by any means. I simply mean this, if you guys feel like I deserve the Medal of Honor, give it to me. If you don't think I deserve it don't give it to me. Hard work and helping continue Confed is its own reward. The reason why I asked Darwin to post on the forums was to keep this a conversation to put it out all on the table. That being said I want the Medal of Honor, however I do not need it and if I do not get it I will respect that decision. I don't however want to be given something just for giving me something and I feel like giving me the Service Cross is just that.....Does that make sense?

I believe that the criteria for this specific award has been altered from it's original transcription (I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty certain it was different). The Service Cross was given out to the original members of HOTS for helping to bring ConFed back. This was due to their service to the clan, not directing a tournament. Not sure when this was changed.
I only offered the Service Cross due to the fact that it would have (by the definition which we used to issue this award) recognize you for your actions and would keep the most prestigious award reserved for members who possessed the complete ConFed package through work ethic and behavior (which would satisfy those issues brought up by Darwin).
Cheers,
Oblivion
PS- I'll be on TS more during the summer months.
