A comic may perform a maximum of four times per season: • Two signup appearances • Two volunteer-earned appearances
Championship Qualification
To be eligible for Championship Night, a comic must perform at least twice during the regular season.
Scoring System
Scores are based on the comic’s average audience rating for that performance. Audience members submit ratings electronically during each set, and the final score is the verified average of those ratings.
If a comic bombs, they will automatically receive a 1.0 rating for that performance.
A bomb is defined as failing to generate sufficient measurable audience laughter within the first two minutes, as determined by official League review.
Standings Calculation
Only a comic’s top two scores from the regular season will count toward their official standing.
After a comic has completed two performances, any lower score earned in a third or fourth appearance will be dropped and will not reduce their overall average. Additional performances may improve a comic’s standing but cannot lower it once two qualifying scores are recorded.
Championship Field
At the conclusion of Week 15, the top 15 comics in the official standings that have performed at least twice will advance to Championship Night.
