Event Information

Hello Friends,

I want to welcome all of you to the Indianapolis mock tournament. For those of you haven't been to one before, a mock tournament is a tournament designed to assist judges who are interested in learning more about competitive REL, by making a tournament full of mentor judges making the event slightly on fire. (I mean lit)

This conference can support 30 Attendees.

Judge candidates and other uncertified individuals are welcome to attend this conference. Unfortunately, per judge program policy, judge foils are not available to individuals who are not certified judges at the start of the conference, including those who certify for L1 at the conference.

The Great Lakes region records judge conference presentations and posts video and audio recordings online so that judges who could not be present physically can still benefit from them. If you are uncomfortable with photo, video, or audio recording of you being taken or shared in this way, please contact the conference organizer, conferences project lead, or regional coordinator to discuss what possible accommodations are available.

If you would like to test for L1 or L2 at this conference, please contact the conference organizer at least one month in advance to allow sufficient time for this to be arranged.

In order to make this event awesome I am asking for the following groups to apply:

Floor Judges: L1 Judges interested in learning more about Competitive REL
Players: L2+ Judges interested in playing Magic and Providing Feedback to Floor Judges
Investigations Workshop Lead: A L2+ Interested in Leading an Investigation Workshop
Deck Check Workshop Lead: A L2+ Interested in Leading a Deck Check Workshop
Presenters: L2+ Judges that are interested in working more behind the scenes to make sure the event runs smoothly. 

If anyone has any questions feel free to email me.
