vivalospride, you did so much for me. You built with me everytime I asked you to, tested with me everytime I asked you to, and rated my teams everytime I asked to. Even if it was the middle of the night for you, or if you just woke up after 3 hours of sleep. You've motivated me more than everyone else did, not just in Pokemon-related things. I thank you all the time, but might as well use this opportunity to thank you again, so thanks! You are a truly unique individual and you'll get plenty of opportunities to shine and show your best - trust me on that!
Kink, I have no idea how didn't you grow to hate me. I personally believe that I am an annoying individual, but I have been the most annoying to you. You were the guy whom I always vented to every time I lost my motivation for Pokemon (which happened a lot of times!), yet you still gave me your full attention and motivated me the best you could, which definitely paid off! Look at me; from an absolute trash ladder player to the runner-up of the 2018 UnderUsed Circuit! You took a look at every team I threw at you, and even built teams for me, just to inspire me. Also, thanks for the Choice Band Swampert team I used in the semifinals. It did well! I am certain I couldn't have succeeded as much as I did in this 2018 UnderUsed Circuit without you. Thanks!
Ark, you were one of the first friends I have made in UU. From teaching me how to play stall correctly, helping me contribute to the UU forums, and giving me a lot of ORAS UU teams to helping me prepare for a game every time I asked for help and to just talk to me about random topics like politics, history, and brain transplants, you've been so good to me. I appreciate everything to this day. You've been a great role model, and you still are!
Sage, we pretty much started equal but look at you playing in SPL and being a great council member; I am really proud of you! You've focused on showing the world of Pokemon trainers how amazing you are, and you still haven't finished doing that. Just remember that there's a little user named Amane Misa when you are a big Tier Leader, or a Tournament Director - whatever road you eventually choose (if not both)!
Shiba, even though you stink, you are still awesome. Yeah, in all seriousness, you've helped me a lot in motivating me, in testing with me, in helping me build, or just in brainstorming me. Talking to you is also one really fun! You're a really interesting person, so stop saying that you're boring because I, the great Amane Misa, say that you're not boring! Be confident, you're a great player and a contributor, and I look up to you a lot!
CKW, aka my #1 cheerleader. Sorry to disappoint you, but I didn't win this time :(. I will win next time, just watch me! You're a great player and a great builder and you've got a ton of potential in whatever tier you choose to focus! You've helped me a ton in motivating me and in being a good ventee to me whenever I was depressed or just wanted to talk; you're more than just a comrade Pokemon trainer to me, you're an amazing friend! Keep on being you and never change!
Eyan, you're another one of the very first friends I have made on this site. You've helped me to grow a lot by giving me the responsibilities of a C&C Forum Moderator, which also helped me to reach a big goal of mine since ages on this site, to qualify for a custom avatar. You've been one of the greatest friends to me and you're one of the closest people on this site to me. Keep on being yourself, you're amazing, I promise!
yeezyknows, more like, yeezythrows hahaha kek. Number #1 Israeli supporter on Smogon and a great friend who have always supported me. You're great in many ways, you'll get your opportunity to shine soon, so just wait and have some falafel or something :cwl:
UnleashOurPassion, you're the best Global Driver PS! has ever had. I hope that we will keep on being friends and that your bots will see some usage in a lot of public rooms!
danger zone, I am thanking you even though you're half dead. We haven't talked that much lately, but you've been my guidance in the very beginning. You've helped me on my journey to rate and to eventually become an official team rater, and got
DrReuniclus (thank you so much for drafting me lol) to draft me in the last UUPL, which was a huge milestone for me!
A Cake Wearing A Hat Nuked maroon Darksafadao Hogg Pearl SilvioGuacamole FUMA HI-FI Adaam Cam you've all helped me, whether be it just a little or a lot, you deserve a shoutout! I couldn't think of anything to say that I didn't already say

Bushtush, you can't see this because you're banned, but you've motivated me much more than everyone else on the site, combined. I couldn't have done as well as I did this year without you, thanks! I hope you do better in the next year's circuit!
