Eccentric reputation ranks

[Friendshipspren]

So I was going through the ranking table and there were two which I couldn't understand. 

1). 1337 so hoid can't compete

2). Tarachin superstar. 

Anyone care to explain what they mean please. 

3).Also I think I saw Scadrian waffle cook at 1000 upvotes. What's so special about being a waffle cook that makes u stronger than a highprince or full feruchemist ?

4). I also saw the term God of color. Isn't that another name for endowment ?

Or is it a title of the halladren Godking ?

Is the Godking stronger than tlr ?? How ?

5). How is a rambleman stronger than a full feruchemist , compounders ,etc ?

1337 is "Leet" in old school internet 1337speak.

Tarachin was the game with the colored balls in warbreaker. 

"God of Color" is a term from Warbreaker, I believe in reference to Austere. 

And the ranks aren't really order by "strength." they're just for fun.

My favorite rank is Torturer of Heralds 

Though 'Rotting Chull Carcass' sounds equally hilarious.

Ah... L33T, Pwnage, munchkinry... Words deserving of being inscribed in metal...

Oh and 'Ramblemen' are Nalthian storytellers and news announcers, in case anyone's curious.

The Waffle cooks might refer to an RPG group here on the Shard, I'm not sure though... You know, the ones distributing Hemalurgically spiked cookies?

Beyond that, what Calderis said. There are three God Beyonds currently (in the Shard, not in the Cosmere!.... hmm....) including Voidus, though Calderis looks like he might soon join them.

 

Some of the rankings really are hodge-podge, if not plain non-canon:

Prelan, for example, refers to the head Obligator and leader of the Steel Ministry in the books; on the Shard though, Prelan and High Prelan are two separate rankings.

Edit: Oops, High Prelans are leaders of Cantons and Lord Prelan leader of the Steel Ministry

Mistings train to become Hazekillers, yet are rated higher than them.

A very cute joke, that rank going with that reputation score. But for me, I think Tarachin Superstar has to be the best because it means that like Lightsong you are an expert in thinking like a sphere, circularly. xD

@PrinceGenocide Hopefully this has encouraged you to reread Warbreaker, or Alice Arneson's reread, or skimming one or the other.

The Scadrian Waffle Cooks have no relation to the DA. While it would be awesome if references from the Shard made their way into the ranks, I doubt they will (this topic was mentioned some time ago in the Rep Levels thread, and I don't remember the exact reasoning but it ended up being a solid no). I believe it's actually something from a WOB, Brandon joking.

I thought Tevidian was a High Prelan? Pretty sure that they're separate titles in the books too. The High Prelan is the one in charge of all of them, while each Canton has its own Prelan. I could be misremembering here.

Not all Mistings train to become hazekillers, just as not all hazekillers are Mistings. All Mistings have magical powers. That's probably why they were set above hazekillers in the list.

(My personal favorite is either Enefel or Dragon.)

Wit would like a word with you

 

For those who don't know or forgot: It literally translates as "wit-killers", check the meaning for Aon Ene,  .
