Event Information

Join us in learning new things about rules and judging!  This conference will be held at KAB in Billings on Sunday April 26th (there is a PPTQ on Saturday the 25th, if you are interested in playing).  We are hoping to have a few foils to give away to promote the judge community in Montana, but these will not be official foil packs.  If you are an out of state judge:  We would love to have you join us for this event but you will not be guaranteed any foils, as they are from our personal collections and not from WOTC. There will however be an official judge conference in Wyoming in June so be sure to apply to that!

Topics we are hoping to cover include:  Judge Jeopardy, Investigations and DQ's, the Ins and Outs of a Turn (phases and steps), and Unsportsmanlike Conduct - minor and major.  We will also be doing demonstrations with penalties for people to get comfortable with fixing things at both Regular REL and Competitive REL.  As we get closer, we may add to these topics.  This is  a great opportunity to learn about the rules of the game, and become a judge if you are interested!  Please apply for this event, so we can get a head count.
