New motto!
Also, congratulations to SyracuvatTenlii, who has won the motto contest for the decision of the new motto, which is "Grounds of the Elite." The banner has been updated on all relevant themes.

I honestly think this year's voting was pretty bad. Not many people voted, and some of the categories had a lot of votes from people who seem to not be very knowledgeable in the category. The biggest one I can bring up is the chattiest members. Half the people who were nominated have barely said anything in the last six months.

As for 2012, I think I'll do some sort of automatic voting system and encourage more people to vote, as well as including instructions NOT to vote if you have no idea who to nominate.

Because of my inactivity, I couldn't keep up with what was happening on Victory Road in the last month (and this is probably also the reason why I didn't win any title). Therefore, I apologise for not voting this year.

Anyway, congratulations to all those who earned titles for the year 2011!

I'll have to congratulate Wulf. I know he'll be happy to hear this. ^w^

I still never won, I don't care. I will try next year.

Little upset I didn't win the digital artist but PRS deserves it

Congrats to one and all for their wins, and here's to 2012!

Cool, I won best ASB Referee. Sure, I didn't win as many titles as last year, but hey, what am I gonna do? I'm going to celebrate for those who did. Once again, congratulations to everyone! ^-^

I would've voted, but the voting took place when I just returned to these forums, so I didn't really know most of the active members.

I am surprised that I tied for first for most chatty and took 2nd for most knowledgeable, but i should've guessed that Cat would take that one.

Second best spriter; I would've figured. Maybe I would've gotten higher if I wasn't on such a long respite from the business. Anyway, good job, shiny.

Congrats guys.

Congrats to all of the winners ^_^!

Congrats to all the winners! :3

Cat, there's something wrong with the results, It says I won something.

But really, thank you all for voting for me. I don't really think I'm all that funny, but I'm glad you all seem to think different! I hope everypony has a happy new year and that the other 365 days (yes this year is a leaper) aren't that bad, either.

oh yeah.
I got nothing.
lol

>mfw I don't even consider myself a traditional artist

Grats guys.

'Grats to the people who won. If there would've been a voting for the sexiest member, I surely would have won first.

Meh, I can tell you right now, I could be here for 5 years, and I probably
wouldn't have won anything.

Congrats to the members who won.

EDIT: Aw, h*ck naw, NismoZ!

I didn't even KNOW we had a voting system.

Congrats guys! And here's to another good year towards... well anything!

Congratulations to all the winners!

...Seeing Fubbles' name there made me sad D:

Also, that one category that I got second in - What?

Ahhh if I kept my streak on from when I first joined, I wouldve won the Active Member aha... Sorry I'm not as active but CONGRATS TO EVERYONE! D: I didn't win anything lol oh well maybe next year >:]

Congratulations to those who won! I'm glad to see some of the people that I know who earned their titles, especially those who won in the traditional and digital art categories of course being that is the only category I felt strongly about who deserved the titles there.

I WAS SURE I WAS GOING TO GET MOST ACTIVE USER!

At least I won something :]

I'm going to be fully active this year. Well at least more than last year. Good job to all the winners!

Expect me to win more titles by the way, I plan on not leaving for a year like I did a little over a year ago.

*original motto post*

sounds catchy. Thanks, Syra, for the amazing motto.~

Nice job Syra but I personality like the classic, it been VR's Motto for years. "Where the Legend Begins".

It's not exactly what I would have voted for (personally I had nothing wrong with "Where the Legends Begin"), but I don't really have a problem with it since I never really look at the subtitle.
Plus I'm using the vB Default style, so it's hard to notice anyway.

It sounds a tad bit awkward, but I'm sure it'll grow on me. Congrats Syra.

Congrats to Syra, haha sounds catchy

Wait, I thought there was going to be prize, but they were never announced, well, to my knowledge they were not.

Congratulations on Syra for finding this awesome motto. Also I can't believe that I got a title!(Even though I'm not first) Thanks for voting me. Unfortunately I couldn't vote.

Ahh good choice in putting it all into one thread cat

WoooHooooo!!! I can't believe I got 2nd best Gym leader! I give a big thank you to everyone who voted for me! Sucks that I didn't get the #1 spot but Kaz and Spirit both deserve it because they are amazing battlers! So congrats to them and everyone else who got a spot in the VictoryRoad Yearbook!!

Jad, you're too active to be missed, yet not active enough for people to notice you are funny.

I have issued all VRAC pets to those who have won.

To those with first place: you have received a Jirachi.
To those with second or third place: you have received a Dratini.

If you won multiple times, you received multiple Pokémon. Subsequent wins of the same Pokémon are shiny.

congrats guys

Heheh! very creative... I would have never expected a forum to have a yearbook. Congratulations to the winners. ^_^ Now I have to try to be more active and noticable.

Heh don't worry Nytz, if there was a "best clan award" you'd totally win!

why didn't I win best writer

Armed is bad at writing

I seriously doubt that you'd take a story about an Aspergers-inflicted Lucario seriously

oh and I'm back guys!

not really, there's just an RP thread Kray made a while ago that I'm still obliged to post in so you might see me sign in sporadically

I just wanted to make a re-entrance with a bang

I'm not gonna be like JC and ragequit the forums only to show up every two weeks again in the online in the last 24 hours section at the bottom of the page

And the most missed member has returned.

..Me? The best RPer of 2011? That's.. Pretty awesome.

Last person in 2nd place in something that only had two places.

AW COOL I WON ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

KERO YEAH
KERO DAMN

Seeing as this thread as little relevance now that we are a month into the new year, is it possible that this thread may be locked?
