British Pauper Open

Hello all!

It is my honour to open applications for the British Pauper Open.

We are expecting 128 players for this competitive event.

The head judge for this event will be Hary.

We also require the following:

2x Floor judges
1x Standby judge

Expectations:

Judges are expected to answer rules questions, deliver penalties, and fixes during their shift in a professinal and friendly manner as well as handle tasks such as deck checks, end of round, and possibly assisting the organisers with other logistics.

Familairity with both the Pauper format and/or Competitive Rules Enforcement Level policy is expected, but not required.

Judges should wear a black judge branded shirt or plain black shirt with black bottoms or skirt.

Judges are expected to be on site from 10:00am.
Shifts are expected to be around 9-10 hours on the day with at least 75 minutes of break.

Compensation:

Floor judges will recieve £170 for the day.
Payment can be delivered by PayPal or bank transfer.

Standby judges will recieve a free ticket to the event if not activated, or floor judge rate if activated - I am hoping that the event will be sold out and our standby will be active, but please only apply for this if you're willing to play. I have multiple complete pauper decks available if you wish to borrow them.

If you have any further questions, I can be reached via Discord @ Hary5742

Applications for judges will be open through July 13th, with initial offers being made shortly thereafter. 
Some positions may be filled earlier so judges are encouraged to apply early.

Thank you and I look forward to seeing some of you on the day!
