Victory Road's Yearbook of 2012

[The Spirit of Time]

A new page of 2013 has unfolded, holding memories of 2012 and announcing those who had an impact on other members, securing themselves a position in one of the titles of Victory Road.

Victory Road's first new feature was the Last 15 Posts, which later evolved to become Last 14 Posts and more if required by the member. This feature is found on the home page, right at the top. It was made due to the thought that it would raise the activity of threads in the forums, and we certainly hope that it has achieved its purpose and is well-received by the members.

We then witnessed the fall down of Victory Road Instant Messenger, which was sucking out the life of the forums. Its closure helped in reviving the forums, albeit slowly.

As a comeback, Victory Road Gym League woke up from its hiatus in a new structure. The Gym League currently holds the eight gym leaders and is waiting for those who can conquer it, in order to raise them as its Elite Four.

The forums then took a minor restructuring phase and added to its arsenal a new Blog board and Competitive Battling sub-board.

Lastly, Cat333Pokémon gave the forums a Christmas gift, that is, Victory Road's own Team Builder, in the hopes that it would help everyone design their teams efficiently, whether for competitive reasons, or in-game.

It is time now for the Nominations Awards. Remember, all nominees have been chosen by the members in a voting session. Those nominees might not necessarily be what they have been nominated as, but it is their impact on other members that mattered in such a situation.

Apart from the titles, each member in the first position of every title will have an Articuno as an adoptable pet. Those in the second and third positions will have a shiny Bonsly as their adoptable pet.

Maybe anyone that won first place for last year will be automatically disqualified the next time around until one more year passes.

[PHANTOMxTRAINER]

Happy New Years VR! It certainly has been a fun year, and I hope we can make this next one even better!

[RaytwOST]

Congrats and happy new year to everyone !

Well... That outcome was unexpected...

Well Anyway! Happy New Year to all!

[Cyrus]

YAY I ALMOST WON SOMETHING!

Congratulations to all the winners, and Happy New Year VR!

[NismoZ]

Well, I didn't win anything, but I was at least on the page, unlike the two years prior. And congrats to the winners :3

[Reuniclus]

Congrats to everyone here who got a place in the 2012 yearbook and Happy New Year! ^^

That's actually a great idea. Spirit, what do you think?

[teamplasma]

I am content with these results. I think that some of the results are weird... Congratz to the winners.

[Yoshi648]

Yay I'm a loser

Congratulations to the winners, and a happy and healthy new year to all!

[PokeRemixStudio]

Didn't win anything this year, but I think it's cool that I made it into three categories.

[SpikyEaredPichu96]

Oh wow, I got first in two categories? I'm blushing you guys. Thanks to everyone who voted for me, and congratulations to the others that won as well! Happy New Year VR!

[LugiaDialga]

It's official, 2013 is now going to be a VERY scary year! Why? Because I somehow won two categories?! Whooaaaaa, that's crazy, that's not supposed to happen! x3 Congratulations to every single person rather they won or not, 2012 was a good year and all, it had it's time now. Welcome to 2013. I am flattered that others think I am friendly, thank-you guyssss, it means a lot~ >w<

[Cat333Pokémon]

I have distributed the Articuno. I shall distribute the Bonsly later. The top three nominated members have also earned a shiny Articuno.

We will talk about it in late 2013, not now, as I am currently sulking for not winning anything this year.

[Trainer_Kylce]

Hey, I placed! And was pretty close to first.
I'm satisfied.

[Ultimazone]

Even though I'm not on here (and I feel like a sore loser for being upset about not being in the remixers category), at least I didn't get an award for something I didn't even do, like in 2010 for being the 2nd best Mario Kart Wii player, even though I don't own the game.

Hm, maybe you were mistaken for UltimaRaichu?

Yeah, the previous ones were pretty bad. By far, the worst categories were those involving activity. When we had VRIM, Magmaster12 won the chattiest award in 2011. Most folks should know he almost never said anything. Also, L got second for most active in 2010. Total posts to date? 115.

[LiteTheIronMan]

so what exactly is the logic behind awarding the most missed member of VictoryRoad anything?

cynicism aside, Happy New Year or whatever.

To bribe them to come back.

Oh hey, it worked. Welcome back.

[TediousRamen]

Piece of cake.

[isbragg]

I placed?! *faints*

[Cat333Pokémon]

I'll get the Bonsly up in a couple days.

[Soulradio]

Now I'm a punk for not voting. My apologies for that, but dang I placed 2nd as funniest member? I'm touched. Truly I am.

[Cat333Pokémon]

I have passed out the 26 Bonsly for second and third place. Be sure to check your pets to make sure they were properly distributed.
