[*] Has participated in every oll event starting with NaNo 2011, and has won every time except for SF 2012, in which he lost hilariously. This gives him a 5-1 OLL event record.
[*] After going for the minimum (50k words of Noveling or 100 pages of script) in his first four OLL events (two novels, one script, one rebel script), he has firmly stepped into the overachiever group with 51,597 words in just 26 days in his NaNo 2012 Novel. While he did not overachieve while successfully doing a 100 page script during April 2013 Camp, he plans to write a novel of over 56k words during July Camp 2013, and will shoot for 60k in NaNo 2013.
[*] Is training for an eventual milwordy run.
[*] Treats 3k days as national holidays, but 2k days as necessities.
[*] Makes grading scales for the community.
