This is an application for the Core2020 Prerelease at ChannelFireball Game Center on July 5th, 6th and 7th.

Events

There are eight events for the Core 2020 Prerelease. You DO NOT need to be able to work the whole weekend to apply. There will be five shifts. Saturday will require a higher number of judges, so working shifts on those days will be prioritized.

Please let me know what shifts you are able to work in your application and if there's a minimum number you need to work. Also note that if you plan on working the midnight shift, we will not be placing you on the Saturday shift. If this occurs, it is in error and you should alert me immediately. There will be openings for Head Judge opportunities, please list relevant experience if applying for this. Scorekeeping will not be available unless you've contacted Josh.

Expectations

All judges are expected to arrive no later than 30 minutes before their event begins. Judges are expected to stay through the completion of the rounds until the last match slip has been turned in.  If you need to arrive late or leave early, please note that in your application. Additionally remember that while you are in the employ of Channelfireball you are representing us. It’s a prerelease so it is naturally a more laid-back event, nonetheless we expect a reasonable amount of professionalism from all involved. In the end you are getting paid to do a job.

Attire for the event is black pants and a judge shirt (or other nice black shirt) tucked in and a black belt. If you do not have a judge shirt, please note that in your cover letter, as well as your size. We may have one that you can borrow for the event. If you have appropriate Channelfireball gear that will also suffice.
