SPECIAL CATEGORY

(Voted by management)

 

The MVP

Roberto Makaveli

Mr. glass has continued to be an immense asset to Valrise, as the individual who not only ensures of the security of the Community, but also who spends hours a day pursuing smaller but more annoying tasks, such as Discord tickets, group issues, staff issues, and all in-between. Without his tireless efforts and wits, we would still be in state of uncertainty whilst floating in these unruly waters that San Andreas Multiplayer has been for the past years. It's an unfathomable amount of work that a small server like ours requires to run effectively, and Mr. glass has been putting that work in for over 3 years thus far.

 

Master of Characters

Damien Taylor

Damien has repeatedly shown the ability to be able to make others feel engaged into the creative world he creates through various situations - either through the National Guard faction, which hosts a plethora of fun and roleplay oriented military activities, and by various characters he crafted, which he humbly keeps anonymous as it is not fame he pursues or desires, but solely the excitement and the mystery that he can create for others who get to witness those characters on full display in certain instances.

 

Faction Visionary

Fifthgen

The one who has endless unique government factions tied to his name. This individual has provided a wide variety of different government factions for players to choose from, whether they enjoy being a county Sheriff, or a traffic enforcer via Highway Patrol, or a ranger via the Park Police, or a naval officer via the Coast Guard, or a road and transport worker via the Department of Transportation - all of it provides unique activities and opportunities to explore and choose, which also benefits the server as it can showcase a variety of unique scripts.

 

Glow-up of the Year

Aiden Corleone

A veteran in the San Andreas Multiplayer, who started journey long ago in 2010s era. Recently he rejoined Valrise and started from zero, created a group with 3 members. None of us believed the group would last more than a few weeks, but Aiden has kept it rolling, and evolved it to what it is today - a criminal group that creates roleplay, attracts those who aren't interested in endless turfing, and those who prefer actual criminal activities outside of the scripted ones. We can hope that he can inspire others to follow the same path.

 

Ghost of Valrise

Tom Wilson

A mysterious individual who plays EVERY SINGLE DAY for the past several years and yet, nobody sees him in-game. This individual is the biggest enigma in Valrise - how can somebody play literally every single day, at exact same hour, and never actually be noticed? And furthermore, this individual was offered higher ranks in the SAPD, which he turned down.  At this point, Tom Wilson is responsible for structural integrity of the SAPD, just like rebar is for stability of buildings in construction.

 

Zero to Hero

Rastar Donga

Rastar joined the staff team whilst still a relatively new player, in 2025. And then, when we thought he wouldn't make it far - he surprised us all, by actually taking time to learn, putting effort into greatly improving his English speaking skills, and being a staff member who actually serves players with decency, kindness and respect. Rastar should serve as an example to all new players who enroll into the staff team. Don't join just for power and the roles. Join to serve the players, join to make a change in the server, and to be kind, humble and respectful.

 

Promotion Master

Maza Vercetti

Jordan Rodgers

This duo has tirelessly worked on promoting the server across different platforms - primarily TikTok and Whatsapp. They have promoted the server well over a thousand times, and created hundreds of TikTok clips that drew a large number of new players into the server. Creating such content and continuously doing it for a year is no simple task, it requires high level of commitment and dedication to do all the editing and uploading on regular basis. We hope this award also incites others to do the same!
