Expectations

Judges will be expected to prepare for each event by reviewing the Comprehensive Rules, Magic Tournament Rules, Infraction Procedure Guide, and Judging at Regular REL documents. These documents can be found at http://wpn.wizards.com/en/resources/rules-documents. As a representative of the Magic Judge Program at this event, judges are expected to behave in a professional manner at all times. Judges are expected to arrive on time and in appropriate attire to begin judging at the start of their assigned shifts.

Sunday RPTQ Judges will be expected to be on site at Atomic Empire by 9:15am. Player Check In will close at 9:45 and the RPTQ will start at 10am. You will not be asked to help with the Check In Process, however, we may ask for assistance with line management.

We request that Judges wear the black Magic Judge shirt, black pants, COMFORTABLE shoes, belt and socks.  

Judges should expect to stay until the event's conclusion.  We expect the days to each end at approximately 7:00 PM, but as we all know, things happen.  We don’t know how many teams to realistically expect as this is a new RPTQ format. Personally I’m thinking we’ll be around 50 teams (which would be 6 rounds).

We are looking to staff the following:

 2-3 Floor Judges

Compensation

Judges will have the option of a Check for $150 or Store Credit in the amount of $187.50. Store Credit is good for anything in the store.

Lunch or a lunch stipend will be provided for all judges who are working the event.

Water will be provided free of charge for all judges working the event.

Judges will receive employee discount on all snacks and concessions the store has available at the snack bar.

Yes, there is Beer at the snack bar. You cannot purchase it before the end of your judge shift. You can buy it with store credit. You cannot drink alcohol while you are working in these tournaments.

Applications are due by 5/31/18.  We will announce the staff list by 6/2/18

Thank you for your interest in helping make this a great event.  If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jeff Darran or email jcdarran@gmail.com with the subject line of RPTQ QUESTIONS.
