Random Situation Generator

Train judges with real time situations

Project Manager:	Ralph Glätsch
Public:
Alignment:	Sphere Project - Coaching (Lead: Ivan Petkovic )
Looking For:	Interesting situations & people to try the workshop

Project Description

Why?

• Train judges to answer rulings in unfamiliar (random) situations
• The situations becomes challenging because of peer pressure, both from actors and spectators
• Community building (it’s fun and we learn together!)
• The scenarios are diverse and can test rules knowledge, diplomacy capabilities and investigation skills

How?

1. Each situation requires 2-4 participants: a judge, and depending on the scenario 1-2 players and/or a head judge (having four to six participants per group is encouraged, since people may have feedback even if they're not actively participating) 
2. Each group will use a dedicated app to generate the situation (some of the details are not available to all participants)
3. The players set up a situation as described before they "call" a judge (this usually requires some magic cards, so have some ready for each group)
4. Player A is the one causing the judge call (the situation defines whether on purpose or not)
5. If relevant, Player B may accuse Player A of cheating
6. The Judge will answer the call
7. After the situation is resolved, all participants (actors, judge, HJ and spectators) will discuss the situation and are welcome to give feedback 
8. Generate a new situation
9. At the end of the workshop, you may gather all groups and have them share what they learned
