Event Information
Please read the below information carefully as our compensation scheme has changed from 2016.
New brand name
In 2017, we'll organize our Grand Prix under the brandname of "Play-MTG.eu" , instead of tournamentcenter.eu. The company name is tournamentcenter.eu; it will be on the contracts, and it will be used for our platform (for multiple games and organizers). To let people get used to it, we'll use "Play-MTG.eu (by tournamentcenter.eu)" in the beginning of 2017.
Expectations
All staff members are expected to perform their duties in a professional manner that reflects positively on the rest of the event staff, Play-MTG.eu and Wizards of the Coast. We expect you to have fun, be professional and contribute to a great atmosphere for everyone to be in.
In addition to making rulings, judges can be asked to assist with event logistics, such as managing lines, pushing chairs, picking up trash, handing out prizes.
We expect every staff members to dress professionally throughout the event weekend and hold up their personal hygiene . A black attire (black Magic Judge shirt, black pants, shoes and belt) is required for judges and staff clothing will be provided for staff members. If you do not have a judge shirt, one will be provided for you (we will take orders after we have selected judges). Staff members and judges are expected to wear their badges when on duty and when entering the venue.
We aim to provide visitors to this Grand Prix an excellent experience. Therefore we expect all to staff members to have read the Event Staff FAQ and be able to relate all information it contains. We also have planned a mandatory TO briefing on Friday evening or Saturday morning before the start of your shift, handling topics such as security and customer service.
Shifts
You may apply for one to three days, but your application must include Saturday. We may need some people to work Friday-Saturday (or Saturday only), please indicate whether you're available for this.
On Friday, we will need judges for several shifts (start times may be adjusted slightly):
-
“early” starting at 09:00,
-
“mid” starting at 11:30
-
“late” starting at 15:00 (very few judges will be needed for the late shift),
-
“flex” - you start at 9:00, and you will either work a normal early shift, or take a long break in the middle of the day (approximately 13:30 to 17:30). If selected for this shift, you may play a side event during your break (or after your shift). You will receive 2 side event vouchers (each worth 8 EUR) for this purpose.
Please indicate your availability for these shifts if applying for Friday.
If applying for Sunday, we expect you to be available until 20:00. Some judges will be needed until about midnight on Sunday. Requests for specific shifts will be accommodated if possible.
Compensation
We are providing the following daily fees:
L1: 1 box
L2: 135 EUR + 1 box
L3: 220 EUR + 1.5 boxes
For L3 roles that require significant amount of preparation, an additional fee will be offered. Judges selected for these roles will be contacted privately.
Each judge will also receive a main event playmat, a drink bottle at their first 2017 Play-MTG GP, plus other goodies if available.
Standby judges
We need some standby judges for this event, including Friday. If selected as standby, you will be expected to come to the event. If not needed as a judge, you will receive 6 side event vouchers (each worth 8 EUR) per day so you can play events. If selected as standby for Saturday, you can play the main event for free instead.
If we activate you as a judge, you will instead receive the normal judge compensation for your level. Activation may happen any time before the event or during the event itself.
Admin roles
We are also looking for admin staff. You can apply either as stage staff (registration, may include some scorekeeping) or customer service (may include info point, prize wall or VIP lounge duties). Some stage staff will be needed for the full three days, while others will be judging on Saturday and working as stage staff the other days. Most customer service staff will work in those roles the full three days, but some are needed for just Sunday. The compensation for admin shifts is 200 EUR per day.
Food
We will provide food for judges and staff during their shifts.
If you have any allergies or are vegetarian/vegan, please share this with the TO in advance.
Contract
Every judge must sign a contract before their first shift. A contract template will be available on request
Hotel
TBA.
