Hello judges!

It’s been a while since any of us have run events in-person. I’m pleased to announce that I’m running an in-person mock tournament to help everyone get back in the swing of things.

We will be simulating a Comp REL tournament with the help of multiple volunteers acting as players, Team Leads, and a HJ. Over the course of the day, we will go through each facet of a Comp REL event.

Participants will be rotating through roles as the various teams. They will learn how to prepare for a Comp REL tournament, how to make announcements, how to handle deck checks with actual decks to check, how to handle the floor, and receive lots of feedback on investigations and rulings.

We will need judges to act as players, judges to act as team leads/the HJ, and judges to act as judges.

As a sign of appreciation, we are allowed to offer attendees a selection of promotional foil cards. The exact packet is not known at this time, but will include 4 promotional cards. These foils are available if you meet the following criteria:

-Register for the conference by applying to this event.
-Be a certified (Level 1 or higher) Judge with a correct level at the time you apply, or if you certify after applying, email me at jason.riendeau@gmail.com with your updated level.
-Fill out at least 2 Flash Feedback cards for others at this event

Schedule:

Team Leads/HJ – 10:00 call time
Players and judges – 10:30 call time
The tournament will start at 11:00, and it will conclude around 4 in the afternoon.

There will be 3 rounds and short post-round debriefings. We’ll have coffee and some form of baked goods in the morning.

If you are a player, please be sure to bring a Pioneer deck.
