Congratulations to everyone that has won an award so far. :)
First off, so much thanks to everyone that voted for me as for the trackmaker award 2013. To be honest, I did not ever expect this award. I can really consider this my final piece to add to the awards I have won over the soon to be 10 years of being in this community. I assure you I won't stop making tracks yet and when GR 2.0 comes around, surely there will be even more to add and I'm looking forward to getting some tracks as well as cars and potentially add-ons out then too.

If it wasn't for this community and it's long standing support, I wouldn't have ever been able to make these tracks or get near the level I have got to so far. So once again, thank you everyone. :)

Imagine yourself be a new member of this forum. It's the first time you come here but you played Generally since a long time before. And you discover a whole community who like the same game than you ! Quick, you're impatient to share your creation or your compo made with a lot of patience, details, love, to other members. You're really proud of it and you know that it's the best that you can make. Then you post your work without seeing that there are rules (Tell me that you don't make it once !). Here, your creation is now visible by all, you shared your creation ! Gathering cookies and bier on front of your computer, you wait with a big smile in your face (like this) some comments on your compo/track/car. Minutes, hours, days past away. No comments. You can't believe it. No "Good work !", no "My guinea pig can do better with his eyes closed.", no advices. You're disgusted and leave forever GRIF.

It can happen but luckily, we have on this forum members who take time and give a lot of patience to new members and as well to skilled ones to avoid such thing. With their help, we improve our skills like we never think we could reach such level one day. Our work is better and better and more joyful for those who take part to a compo, or play with a track or a car. They willingly give advices (and very often good ones !) when we show them our work. When we think of what they do here, we are grateful to all those guys who help us to be better.

Even if there is only one chosen, all can be really proud to be nominated and deserve all our thanks.

Without reading more, here's the...
Nominees for Commentator of the Year 2013:

Bouncebackability, DuklaLiberec, Emil the ZZW, puttz, Rendy, Scholl, Trigger Happy, XYY, YoNnie.
And the Golden Räbinäs go to...

We are getting close to the end of our gala event, and with that, I would like to congratulate to everyone, who has won an award or even just got nominated! :shaking:

And now, as regular visitors of Räbinä Awards Gala know, we hand out also an honorary award to a member, whose GeneRally work defined in principle our life in the community. This year we are going to hand out this award to an actual wizard of GR. He has released a good amount of high quality tracks in the first several years of GeneRally. But most of us remember on him as a tool creator. I guess, we all know, that two car editor programs have been released in our community, and the first one was his. On the top on it, he's also managed competitions, which were successful.

At the end here's just a little video from his miscellaneous works uploaded on youtube, a cool 3D go-kart video!



I guess it is clear already, that who is going to receive our honorary prize, ...

and so the Golden Räbinäs go to...

There has to be a mistake in the Community member votes' file:
sartalas : Trigger Happy

“I have to go with jo.sk on this one because of his single-handed running of GWR. I can't imagine the amount of work it must take to keep up such a massive database of GR compo history. And I thought running a single compo was a lot of work...”
Thanks for the votes guys, and congrats to all award-winners :bg:

Wouldn't that mean that jo.sk is a co-winner?
