Mock Wars Tiering

[Mock Wars Admin]

In the upcoming Mock Wars Season and future Tournaments, under which 'tier' would you be most likely to compete?

Top Tier (Tentatively "Heavyweights")
The top tier is for the very best mockers the tournament has to offer. No one who has been in a Mock Wars tournament final may place below this tier.

Middle Tier (Tentatively "Middleweights")
The middle tier is for mockers who have a good sense of humor but aren't quite in the same form as the top tier yet. This is a good tier for competitors who have Mock Wars or other comedic writing experience. No one who has been in a Mock Wars tournament semifinal may place below this tier.

Bottom Tier (Tentatively "Cruiserweights")
The bottom tier is for people who want to try out the Mock Wars but don't want to dedicate much time to it and/or they don't quite have the hang of more intense competition yet. Anyone who is not blacklisted from forum events is eligible.

Anyone can apply to enter to any tier, but they will have to qualify first if they don't have the season records to automatically qualify.

Voters / Judges
If you plan to vote or nominate yourself to be an official Mock Wars judge (see the other thread in this forum for more information) and do not plan to compete, pick this option.

Viewers
If you just plan to watch the Mock Wars Season or Tournament, but do not plan to compete or vote, pick this option.

Nonparticipants
If you don't plan to have anything to do with the Mock Wars, pick this option.

UNLIMMITED WEIGHT CLASS, BABY!

Heavyweight.

[Max Radical]

Middleweight, baby. Plenty of comedy and internet-versus experience, but none in Mock Wars and I don't want to stand in front of Mr Burbank sticking my glass jaw out while asking "So, how does this work then?"

[Matt Harty]

cruiserweight. i can go for short bouts but I can't be bothered to research someones posting history and go on a long rampage posting hilarious comics and such.

[DuFresne]

I'm thinking cruiserweight. I'm thinking I might try this Mock Wars thing out, but I have the same sentiments as Matt Harty where I don't have the motivation to really dedicate myself to it.

And Max Radical, you honestly might want to start at cruiserweight as well until you get a better feel for this competition. Just my honest opinion. Do whatever.

lol I like how fathom fancies himself a middleweight.

[Lenor]

And you have jurisdiction to say what about zero?

He could hold his own, you won't even participate.

[Zomboid]

Uh, he was in it and sucked? Just because I choose not to participate, that doesn't mean I don't know what I'm talking about.

He's an alright guy, just terrible at mocking. Like you, only you're a shitty guy.

[Protoclown]

If I had the TIME to participate in a Mock War again (and it would be an official one, none of this "season" bullshit), I would go HeavyFatFattyWeight, all the way.

Yeah, he sucked, but so did I last year. I was sorta drug into it by ItalianStereotype and Chojin so I didn't really have any heart in it, maybe he's got a similar story. People can surprise you :O

[Fathom Zero]

I didn't know who else was a middleweight when I voted, so I'm royally screwed.

I found the problem was that one person was always waiting for the other to start so Person 1 could mock what Person 2 said. Then Person 2 could either deflect and redirect or pretend it never happened. Ugh,... there's a formula.

But I swear I'm ready to whip some ass this round. Everyone wishes they could be as good as me.

[Lenor]

I WISH I WASN'T REFERRED TO AS A GUY! :/

[Misdemonar]

hahha terra you got PWNED and OWNED

[Supafly345]

Cruiser. I would totally be all over the mock wars if I had time
