He was the 75th judge in California, pushing Riki Hayashi over the top to win a contest arranged with David de la Iglesia in Spain. Josh has been relentless in his efforts to improve the rules knowledge across the judge program., contributing through the Knowledge Pool, Rules Tips Blog, and myriad other ways large and small. His leadership in the greater Los Angeles area has been important to the region's development and cohesion, and that will only get stronger with this achievement.

I met Bryan Prillaman at a Star City 5k in 2010. He was set to shadow Michael Fortino as an L0 and took his test on Sunday. He passed and we welcomed him as one of the first members of the new Florida Judge Crew. From that point forward, Prillaman was always a voice of reason and fun. He originally tested to be the rules guy for his casual emporer/EDH group, but has turned into one of the most active judges in the state. I've had many great talks with him and have always been happy to floor judge for him or have him floor judge for me at any event. I've used him as a sounding board for many ideas I've had since being Regional Coordinator and I always appreciate his insights. He brings a dizzying amount of analytical intelligence to any situation he is presented with and has already done great things for the program. I only hope at L3, there are more opportunities for Bryan to shine. Congratulations Bryan, you've earned it and then some.
