For official event page:

This is a preliminary PTQ and our area has generally averaged about 30 players (as low as 21, as high as 37). In reality we only need one judge but we are choosing to staff 2 judges so we can help get some L1 judges experience in hopes that it will help the local judge community. The judge comp reflects this. On the off chance that only L2+ apply we will only have 1 judge. The goal is to help the local L1s get a chance to work an event with a L2.

When applying please let us know if you have worked an Atlantis event before or if you have worked with judges that have. We don't have a head judge picked currently so if you are interested in being the HJ let us know what experience you have and make sure you let us know when you apply. Also list if you are able to handle scorekeeper duties and if you are willing to be on standby if need be.

We also have access to discounted hotel rooms at a nearby Hampton Inn. I would need to confirm price and availability but usually I can get you a room for $59 plus tax. Just let me know when you apply that you'd like me to check on it.

Compensation is listed below in addition to meal compensation up to $10:

  • Head Judge $200 store credit
  • "Extra" Floor Judge $75 Store Credit (Level 1 Judges only)

Since we know there are a lot of events that need L2s we would like to have a standby head judge. If you are willing to be standby you will get $25 credit or free entry into the event.
