So I'm hoping someone can answer this for me. I'm a novice this is my first skit that I'm doing, I have been part of others skits so I kinda understand the system a little bit. I have two friends that i believe are in master division but they aren't like helping me with anything other then being in the skit. So am i still considered a novice or do I have to put Master due to my friends? I'm planning my skit for Katsucon 2013 if that helps with determining the answer for this question. Thanks
