Thank you for your interest in events at Victory Comics! We are looking for a number of judges to make our events a success, so please, read on to determine how we can work together.

Staff for this event will consist of:

One Head Judge
Two Floor Judges
Two Standbys, activated at 64 players
One scorekeeper 

Format

This event is a Sealed PPTQ. The event will run swiss rounds as recommended by the MTR, with a cut to Top 8, followed by a Draft.

Compensation

Floor Judges and Scorekepers on staff will receive their choice of one-and-a-quarter booster boxes of any in-print standard-legal set or $170 in store credit per day worked, lunch, and drinks while on duty. Head Judges will receive an extra box or $135 in store credit in addtition to the comp listed above. Standby judges will receive free entry, unless they are activated, in which case they will receive the same compensation as floor judges.

Expectations

Judges are expected to be on-site, in judge uniform, at 10:30 am. Seatings for the player meeting will be posted at 11:00 am, so if you are running late, please call the store so we can be prepared. Judges should plan to stay until the Top 4 begins. The Head Judge should plan to stay until the event is completed.

Judges are expected to be familiar with the IPG, MTR and Comp Rules, including any updates with the release of the new set.

If you do not have a Magic Judge shirt, please wear a black long-sleeve dress shirt - we may have a shirt in your size available to borrow for the day. Regional shirts are not acceptable for this event.

Standby

We have two standby slots available for this event. Standby judges will be activated if the player count exceeds player thresholds, and will be released at the end of the Top 8 Draft. Standby judges should be on-site by 10:30 am prepared to work the event; if you are not needed as a judge, you will be given free entry to play in the event instead. 

Application Guidelines

Staffing for this event will be a mix of Level 1 and Level 2 judges. L1s on staff will be expected to have a strong knowledge of the IPG - preference will be given to L1s who are nearing completion of their L2 checklist.

Staff for all events will be announced within one week of the application deadline.
