Come October I'll be a level SSJ judge and you can be too. For the low, low cost of 50$, cheaper than the academy I might add , you too can be certified. Pre-order now and I'll throw in access to all the current educational material freely available to judges at no extra cost.

Judges are gonna start running a protection racket "That's a nice game state you've got there, would be a shame if anything happens to it..."

Nothing interesting, just seems like someone trying to run point getting ahead of criticism by using Simpsons references to pretend Tournament Organizers would never cheap out on Judges. I imagine if I posted any kind of actual criticism he'd go Full Defense Mode, but right now he seems to be just re-stating the company line. When I pointed out making a Simpsons reference didn't actually change anything, he said I seemed "upset."

Rules question: Twice now on Arena I've tried to use Chandra, Acolyte of Flame's -2 to cast a Light Up the Stage for its Spectacle cost after an opponent was damaged that turn. Both times it wouldn't let me. Is there something in the rules I'm missing that wouldn't allow me to do this, or is this a bug?

Does it resemble anything like this corporate BS from the AMA? quote:Great Question. We believe that events are better with better Judges. We are going to run a campaign to convince retailers and TOs that it is in their best interest to use Paid, Certified Judges. We start this campaign at the GAMA Retailer conference and we will provide additional details to the Judge Community about our efforts as they develop.

I understand this gives me the right to unlimited energy drinks during events at the LGS of my choice.

Both times it wouldn't let me. It's worked every time I try it, since the patch. You have to click it when it still says, eg: 2R and then it splits to being able to cast it for the spectacle cost after, it's like 4 clicks for some reason.

I just tried it again against Sparky and it worked, so it's possible I was having that issue right before the patch hit. Thanks for the replies, everyone!

Gen Con stuff starts today. The important things are a "You Make the Card Live!" at 11 AM EST, and Commander 2019 talks at 6 PM EST tonight and 4 PM EST tomorrow. There's nothing saying which set if any the "You Make the Card" card is going to appear in.

Starting my own judge academy that costs $2/month (optional, for foils) and reposts all of the L1 content from JA. If theres enough subs I'll buy a L3 membership from JA and repost all the L2/3 training as well. Also we refer to levels as 'grades' instead.

I can't wait to troll JA people by calling myself a judge despite not being in the JA. Its driving people insane on facebook currently.

If you're calling them grades then 3 should be the lowest and 1 the highest. It just makes sense.

He never actually attacked me as far as I can recall he just made it impossible to continue.

Starting my own Judge League that has different badges that confer aptitude. There are 8 badges. If you defeat a judge in rules combat, they give you their badge. However, should you lose, you give them $100, 150....400 depending on level.
