Rebríček New Year Contestu 2012 nám rozpráva príbeh o tom, ako sa aj v zdanlivo tichej disciplíne dokáže zrodiť dramatické poradie. Na samotnom vrchole žiari Dainius LYR1289, ktorý nazbieral 314 bodov. Jeho výsledok pôsobí ako precízne naladené hodiny. O nič menej pútavý je výkon Vladimira R3A-847 so 300 bodmi, ktorý mu dýcha na chrbát s odhodlaním skúseného pozorovateľa. Prvú trojicu uzatvára Anton ONL908 so 279 bodmi, čo dotvára elegantný oblúk medzi trpezlivým počúvaním a súťaživým duchom.

In the middle of the field, there are names that have brought solid colors to the ranking with their performances. Bill W1-7897 took home 254 points and Marc ONL4638 228 points. Both showed that even outside the podium, the band can provide space for small but intense joys from a well-captured connection. Johan NL9723 with 214 points and Allen VO1-001-SWL with 157 points, they remind us that a competitive year can be as varied as the winter sky: sometimes clear, sometimes uncertain, but always full of expectations.
In the second half of the ranking we find Sjuk NL6904 with 100 points, Cora PD1AIH with 93 points, Ondrej OK2-36392 with 74 points and Ada NL9745 with 57 points. Each of them created their own little chronicle of attentive listening, which, although it does not reach the heights of the first places, but complements the overall picture of the competition with the most important thing: that SWL is a celebration of patience and joy in details.
