IB Dominaria Pre-Release

Dominaria is where it all began. Join us on Magic's historic home as judges for the I'm Board prerelease events!  

Listed below are the events we will be running that weekend, along with when registration starts, when the event starts, and when the head judge's call time will be. Call times are before registration begins to ensure the head judge can get whatever prep work is required done to make their event successful.

April 21st - Midnight Sealed, Cap 32. (Reg at 11pm Friday April 20th, start at 12am Saturday, call time 10:30pm Friday, April 20th)

April 21st - Saturday AM Sealed, Cap 60 (Reg at 10am, start at 11am, call time 9:45am)

April 21st - Saturday PM 2HG, Cap 48 (Reg at 4pm, start at 5pm, call time 3:45pm)

April 22nd - Sunday AM Sealed, Cap 60 (Reg at 10am, start at 11am, call time 9:45am)

April 22nd - Sunday PM 2HG, Cap 48 (Reg at 4pm, start at 5pm, call time 3:45pm)

Compensation for head judging these events will be 1.25 packs per player in the event you head-judged, to be paid on Dominaria launch day (April 27th). You also have the option of taking your compensation in store credit at a rate of $3.00 store credit per booster pack.

Additionally, the smaller cap on the Midnight Sealed event comes with an additional perk - you are encouraged to play and judge this event, and you play in the event for free! Just keep it fair, keep it fun, and keep it moving along! And yes, this means all other events you will be required to full-time judge.

All head judges will need to use WER for registering players, recording match results, and printing/cutting/distributing match slips. They will also need to use RTools to post the pairings and the round clock for their event. They are expected to perform whatever preparative tasks (such as getting the right kind of table numbers up, as they are different between sealed and 2HG) are necessary to make the room ready for their event. They are also expected to read the set release notes when they are available and come ready to answer player questions and promote a fun, educational, and positive experience for all of our players. 

Questions, comments, concerns, etc. can be directed to Matthew Westfox. Applications will be accepted through March 31st, and you should know whether or not you are staffed by Wednesday, April 4th. 

(NOTE- Player caps may be raised for certain events, and there is flexiblity for each of those events, but will stay close to what is currently listed.)
