For official event page:

This is a preliminary PTQ and our area has generally averaged about 36 players (as low as 21, as high as 46). In reality we only need one judge but we are willing to staff 2 judges so we can help get some L1 judges experience in hopes that it will help the local judge community. However, only the head judge will receive compensation. We may also run a GPT as a side event so the L1 judge can head judge an event with the benfit of an L2 on hand in case there are questions. If a GPT becomes available, we will add it.

When applying please let us know if you have worked an Atlantis event before or if you have worked with judges that have.

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

  • Head Judge $200 store credit

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.
