Mythic Mini-March Madness Championship: (1) Paul Barnett vs. (1) Josh Drescher


Well, it's finally here - the Mythic Mini March Madness Championship match! Worlds will be made, triumphs and defeat shall be felt, and much Bacon will be eaten in this, the match to determine the 2009 Mythic Mini-March Madness Champion!

Let's take a last look at our two gladiators:

(1) Paul Barnett has long since been the personable, boisterous, and energetic spokesperson for WAR and its best features. As Mythic's Creative Director, Paul drives vision, concepts, and ideas into concrete mechanics and whether it is through Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, or Youtube, the face of Paul Barnett is well-known among WAR fans. Paul's numerous quotables have been among some of the most prolific of WAR's development.

Here's a very recent video interview Paul did for MMORPG.com regarding Class Balance..

Paul defeated 3 of Mythic's finest to get to this match - Ci-Ci Thomson, Adam Gershowitz, and the VP/GM himself, Mark Jacobs, en route to this finale.

(1) Josh Drescher, Producer for WAR, is a self-described "handyman", and he's responsible for the flow and pace of WAR's development. The way Josh ensures that things are going smoothly and all six cylinders are firing is to facilitate the communication between the various teams and developers for WAR, troubleshoot issues and problems, and get everyone working in a coherent, efficient machine. Josh is also one of the most prolific WAR developers in online circles, whether that is through his blog, Tumblr, or through the never-ending quest for more Twitter followers (go go 700!).

Josh did a very recent interview with Syp of the WAAAGH! blog (now since transplanted to Bio Break) regarding WAR.

Josh's road to the championship went through Bruce MacLean, Carrie Gouskos, and a hard-fought victory over The Hickman.

This multi-day poll, lasting over the course of this weekend, will determine our championship. Today, you decide who is your champion, community. Don't disappoint!

"March Madness" is a college basketball tournament held in the US. It is done primarily in March, hence the title. Many people place bets on the outcome, guessing which team will win the various brackets. Since it's so popular, many people do "spin-offs" of it, such as this one. Our "Mythic Mini-March Madness" is set up much like the basketball tournament, and the winners are determined by the users who vote for the "players." This is the final match-up to determine who WA's favorite Mythic representative is.
