The following will work:

[tmpn name="test"]1[/tmpn]

[if term="[scratch test]" op="eq" compare="2"]
MOO
[elsif term="[scratch test]" op="eq" compare="1"]
       [if term="[scratch test]" op="eq" compare="2"]
       MOO2
       [elsif term="[scratch test]" op="eq" compare="1"]
       MOO3
       [/elsif]
       [/if]
[/elsif]
[/if]

Also note, if you are comparing numbers you might want to use an op of "==".

Cheers.
