Event Information

Welcome to the applications page for the Puget Sound BattleGround (PSBG1)!

Please message Stephan Classen, drakk2@yahoo.com with any questions about the event. 

This event will be something a bit different than normal competitive events- with two 5K prize events running concurrently.  Our aim is to staff the event with judges helping with both events, which are capped at 226 players for Modern, starting at 10am, and Legacy, starting at 11am. Two main side event formats are 93/94, and Canadian Highlander. 

Expectations:

Judges will be expected to review the Comp Rules, MTR, and IPG and their most recent updates.  You can find these here: Magic Judges Document Center.  Judges will be expected to be professional, dress accordingly to the judge uniform guidelines, and begin judging at their start of shift until the end of shift. 

Judges will need to arrive by 9:15am, and be ready for the start of round 1 by 10am for Modern, and 10:15am for Legacy. 

Side event judges will have a different call time, and will be taken both as full compensation and standbye. 

 

Compensation:

As this is the first event of this kind for the area, compensation will be:

Floor judges/event staff/Scorekeepers: 2 boxes of a recent standard set

Head Judges: 3 boxes of a recent standard set. 

Judges may receive store credit at Geek Fortress on request of equivalent value. 

 

Applications will close on March 30th, 2019.  Please email with any questions about this event or staffing questions.
