The Success Scale

(WORK IN PROGRESS)

The Idiot Scale is a measure of how idiotic a certain race or organization are. It measures not only their intelligence but also their effectiveness in battle. Below are the ranks of the Idiot Scale and a few examples of races or organizations that fall under each category.

Tier 1 - Supreme Idiot

This tier refers to any race or organization that has failed catastrophically in a certain endevour. They are looked down upon by the rest of the Galaxy as inferior beings and are generally laughed at by everyone.

Examples:
 * Forerunners - Built massive superweapons to stop the Flood and Reapers, and ended up killing everything in the Galaxy... Apart from the Flood and Reapers. Good Job. More info Here. Not only that, put Flood specimens on the superweapons so they would survive.
 * Quarians - Constructed a race of sentient slave workers, and then declared war on them when they said they didn't like slavery, only to lose and be driven from their homes even though the Geth were only trying to be nice.
 * Brutes - Achieved a space-faring tier of intelligance but then destroyed everything because of their stupidity, and then destroyed the Covenant by accident. The Elites did the Galaxy a favour and glassed their homeworld, killing them all.
 * Sontarans - Go to war against people they cannot defeat, and then lose. They even lost against Humans, for god's sake.
