Should a standby not be needed to judge, they will receive free entry into the main event. Should a standby judge become activated, they will be compensated at the typical floor judge rate. We will try to notify standby judges in advance if activating them is anticipated, but all activation decisions will be based on the tournament organizer's discretion at the event.
