I was mid-Tier 3 when I started playing again in September last year, and now, 1122 battles later, I've finally reached Tier 1!!!

Congrats on your efforts and the sense of achievement you are feeling...

Revel in the change of gameplay as you have stepped up to the upper echelons of the mechwarrior populace...

Appreciate the differences in your teammates, as the level of gameplay at T1 is very different from T6...

Play your heart out for no particular goal! You have made it!



If you ever wonder if the time spent was worth it, just look above at the first letters, the main difference between T1 and everything else is....


The good news is, with your T1 experience, I won't feel so bad shooting you, or being slapped around by you... you made it to the status of being a true threat, which in my book is (Quagmire voice on) "all--right"

Welcome and congrats!

You have graduated from Potatoe High!!


The game only really began for me once I hit T1, but it isnt the same as it was a long ago when PSR was first released.

I tip my hat to you. Congratulations, now that you have done an extraordinary thing. So....now what...BWAH HA HA HA. Where do you go from here, what challenges await you?

Great, now my Storm crow is afraid to come out of it's berth and face you. Might as well drag out my new Super Nova.

Best wishes.....

Congrats, but you're just going to get more random potatoes in your drops.

Enjoy carrying!

Congratulations, your "Carry Harder" T-shirt is now in the mail. You also receive the "Window-licking Scrub" warhorn which sounds every time one of your team-mates dies in a stupid way...

Now you can finally play MWO the way you want to instead of using min/max loadout to climb the ladder.

Wait...tier 1 IS meta land. Posted Image Posted Image

I just played a game with Kanajashi in it. I'm pretty sure he's Tier 1. Way to go PSR.

Thanks everyone!

As for the matchmaker... yeah, I've been frequently seeing obvious Tier 5 players for the last 2 months, which shouldn't have been possible for a Tier 2 player.

I will not say it means nothing... but it sure does not mean much. I mean I farmed half a Tier 2 bar in 20 hours of play to Tier 1 using just an AWS-8R just to prove the point to the person who will shortly show up to lie about me not doing it even though he watched my Tier change in the messages we were exchanging at the time.

Here I am!!!

That is because you claims and timeframe have changed. Your stats don't support you having a solid weekend of doing a thousand damage a game. Oh and the bar moves slower than your claim. So I did not 'watch' you. You did not previously display your tier and then after a week of my making fun of you, your tier changed to one....

I never said weekend... there you go adding your own delusional interpretation to it, is that it? You are not a pathological liar but have delusions? Cause I did it on a Tuesday and Thursday... but you are turning it into weekend cause I said two days (over a 3 day period that I did not play on the 3rd day), but I will admit that was an imprecise measurement. Hence why I am saying 20 hours cause that was the actual time I spent doing it... I had my Tier 2 showing and then said that the Tier/Stats you were crowing about as so important were fairly pointless and irrelevant, so I stopped Mastering the sub-par Mediums and Lights that I was doing to finish all the mechs and played my AWS-8R just to game the system. Then I bragged about doing it and demonstrating how pointless these things that you were holding up to be some kind of gold standard really were.

So either a lie or just your delusional mindset about it being "a weekend" and one flat out lie about my Tier not showing. For a lying piece of $hit of your caliber, I have to say it is impressive that you were able to hold yourself back to just that much lying. I know that had to have been hard for you do when there was so much more lies that you had to have desperately wanted to include.
