Elexonck: MVP is a huge honour that many people have sacrificed their life to earn. We lost four members of our team’s lives in the tussle for the title of MVP, but only the strongest will remain.
Jokes aside the title of MVP can be given for many reasons, medals, activity, medals, being cool, medals, giving me money, medals etc. But what really keeps a team together is morale, showing up, being around, supporting your teammates. And that’s why this MVP was chosen…. the MVP is…. drum roll please

Chonono’s consistency and team spirit has been a great sight to see in the team chat, and I am thrilled to award them this title. Congratulations!

Team MVP: Pen/Han
Link3000: I am very excited to award pen/han the title of Team MVP. Throughout this entire week, Pen has made such an effort to show up to events, participate in every game she could and made such an effort to get herself up on that medal board. But most importantly, she has been an incredibly supportive teammate. She has cheered on every teammate, every medal, every participation, even every mishap to make sure people stay motivated. Despite some self doubts, she still persevered, kept her head high, continued showing up and most of all, secured one of the team winning medals. No mistake was too bad and no victory was too small. She has truly shown sportsmanship and what it means to be a team player. The process of choosing the MVP was extremely conflicting, but there is no question that Pen is deserving of this award. Congratulations!
Congratulations Team Celeritas! As a reward for winning, you’ll get to keep your team role until our next olympics, with the same going for everyone who earnt the Team MVP and Rebel Olympian roles!
