Pro Tour London 업데이트
저지 여러분들!
올해의 첫 프로 투어 이후의 게시물에 오신 것을 환영합니다. 프로 투어 런던이 성황리에 마무리되었으며, 역대 최대 규모의 프로 투어 및 콜링 이벤트를 진행하게 되었습니다. 앞으로 더 많은 훌륭한 이벤트들을 기대하며, 특히 2025년 필라델피아에서 개최될 월드 챔피언십을 고대하고 있습니다.
우선, Judges of Rathe의 저지 프로그램 관련 소식입니다. 새로운 저지 리소스 및 커뮤니티 프로젝트에 발전과 기타 다양한 업데이트에 대해 살펴보겠습니다!
드디어 때가 왔습니다! 새로운 랜딩 페이지 가 fabtcg.com에 공개되었습니다! 현재 첫 번째 버전이며, 추후에 더 많은 내용들이 추가될 예정입니다. 이 모든 것은 이하의 프로그램 목표를 더 효율적으로 달성하기 위해 마련되었습니다:
Flesh and Blood의 전 세계적인 저지 커뮤니티를 양성하고 교육하며 인증하는 것을 목표로 합니다.
Flesh and Blood라는 훌륭한 공통의 언어를 통해 사람들이 실제적으로 모여 소통하고 연결될 수 있도록 돕는 것을 목표로 합니다.
이 페이지는 신규 및 기존 저지 모두를 위해 소통을 더욱 편리하게 만들기 위한 중심 공간으로서 설계되었습니다. 현재 콘텐츠들의 요약은 다음과 같습니다:
- Judges of Rathe 개요
- 저지가 되는 것
- 공식 규칙 및 정책 게시물 (규칙 재검토 및 뒷골목의 예언자)
- 부분적으로 재편된 규칙 및 정책 센터
- 유용한 링크: 저지들이 쓴, 저지들을 위한 게시물
- 소셜 미디어 링크 및 Judges of Rathe 디스코드 서버
앞으로는 다음 사항들을 찾을 수 있을 것입니다:
- 커뮤니티 팀 개요
- 저지 커뮤니티 대표자에 대한 세부 사항
- 팀 리더 또는 L2P 인증과 같은 추가 역할에 대한 설명
- 그리고 더 많은 것들이 여러분을 기다리고 있습니다!
저희는 해당 페이지에 공식 기사 요약 및 관련 자료 등의 콘텐츠가 추가될 것으로 예상하고 있습니다. 저지들이 쓴, 저지들을 위한 게시물 은 2025년에 사이트 구조 개편을 계획 중이기 때문에 블로그에 계속 남아있을 예정입니다. JudgeHub 또한 오늘날과 마찬가지로 테스트, 인력 배치 및 기타 분야에서 핵심 기반으로서의 역할을 계속할 것입니다.
Flesh and Blood 저지 프로그램이 시작된 이후로 많은 것이 바뀌었습니다. 초기에는 Josh를 지원하기 위해 결성된 비공식적인 소규모 그룹이었으며, 그 뒤를 이어 JudgeHub가 시작되었습니다. 프로젝트가 JudgeHub에서 형성되었으며, 저지 커뮤니티 대표 시스템이 설립되었습니다. 현재 구조에 어떻게 이르렀는지 궁금하신 분은 해당 글을 확인해 주세요 2022년 연말 기사.
게임과 프로그램은 그 이후로 크게 성장했습니다. 이벤트와 프로젝트의 수, 플레이어 규모가 증가하면서 과거의 많은 아이디어와 콘셉트가 한계에 부딪히게 되었습니다. 단순한 아이디어인 예를 들어 “모든 프로젝트는 같아야 한다” 또는 “모든 리더는 회의에 초대된다”와 같은 원칙은 초기에는 잘 작동했지만, 시간이 지나며 추가된 요소들이 쌓이면서 한계에 도달했습니다. 따라서 우리는 이 도전에 더 적합하다고 생각하는 방식으로 시스템을 재구조화하고 있습니다. 이를 통해 더 명확한 기대치를 설정하고 정보 흐름을 원활하게 만들기 위해 노력하고 있습니다!
이로써, 커뮤니티 프로젝트의 발전 과정을 커뮤니티 스페이스, 그룹 및 팀으로 소개합니다.
In short, projects have become teams; teams can be part of a group; and every team and group falls under a specific sphere.
A big factor for us was how we could improve communication and interconnectivity between teams. Our approach here goes with grouping every team into 3 overall spheres. These build the foundation for this new approach:
- Connection
- Advancement
- Community
In the short to midterm, there will be three leads helping structure the spheres and working on cooperation, with two of the leads who sharing Connection and Advancement, as well as one lead for Community. We decided for this setup to enable cooperation while acknowledging that the Community aspect is deeply regionally rooted.
Here you can have a rough draft (tentative) of how these spheres will be organized:
The goal of this structure is to create a bridge between the old projects and either similar new teams or to adopt a more flexible approach, allowing for the splitting of former projects or for them to become a single group now. Some teams will also have an overlap between spheres, especially community, with shared responsibility and interconnectivity, especially regarding more regional teams.
With this new setup, we hope to achieve a more flexible sandbox for new and old teams alike and facilitate interested judges’ contributions to the program in a way that is personally meaningful to them. We hope that this system also facilitates inter-project communication, without overburdening the system with too many extra layers of bureaucracy. Of course, nothing is perfect, and we expect changes and some fine-tuning – but if you never try, you will never succeed!
In the next weeks and months, you will see some new community team leads in old and new projects alike. It will not be in one go, in order to avoid rushing anything and are able to have teams settle into their new environments a bit more naturally. An additional article explaining the reorganization of the projects in detail will be published at a later date.
As we had some questions surrounding this, we want to cover the baseline here as well as some minor updates. The shows this applies to are World Tours with a Calling, Pro Tour or Worlds event. You can find additional details about most of the following on application pages as well.
| Position | Requirements |
|---|---|
| Battle Hardened Floor Judge | Level 1 or Level 2 |
| Battle Hardened Team Lead/Head Judge | Level 2 |
| Calling Floor Judge | Level 2* |
| Calling Team Lead | Level 2 |
| Pro Tour/Worlds Floor Judge | Level 2 |
| Pro Tour/Worlds Team Lead | Level 2 + Team Lead Certification |
| Schedule (Side) Event Floor Judge | Level 1 |
| Scheduled (Side) Event Team Lead | Level 2 |
| Learn to Play | Level 0 + Learn to Play Certification |
* A Level 1 can be a Floor Judge on a Calling event if they have all checklist items fulfilled and are only missing a Level 2 recommendation that is planned to be obtained during that event.
Team Lead Certification
Going forward, you can expect the TLC to be more and more required. Starting with Pro Tour Singapore, it will be necessary to serve as a team lead at Pro Tour and World Championship events themselves. The next step will be to require the TLC on day one of Calling events during World Tour weekends featuring a Pro Tour, World Championship or World Premiere event. We will announce this year when this will start being in effect.
Exceptions to the rules
Some exceptions can happen to the above rules, for example, due to language requirements or other logistical limitations, but overall, they will apply to a vast majority of cases.
Non-Judge event roles
The above applies to roles related to judging the event. If you are looking at applying for one of those shows in different roles, for example, as admin or scorekeeper, you are not required to have any of the above levels, but the vast majority of staff in those roles will be Level 1 or above.
Additionally, we would like to advertise that all World Tour events that have a Calling offer a sponsorship option to apply for (in the case of Europe, for non-Europeans). We want to enable Judges and staff to be able to go to different regions to maintain a global judge program and have a lived exchange around the world. No matter if this sponsorship helps you with travel or factors relevant to your application. If you are applying for any judging roles outside your georegion (Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific) we strongly recommend having a Level 2 when you apply – here also expectations will exist for various reasons like visa requirements or similar.
We are working to get this year’s run ready for you all! Last year, you gave us valuable feedback, and we want to adjust to that. So here are some changes we’ve made for Georegion conferences this year:
- All georegion conferences will be announced 3+ months in advance.
- First wave of announcements will include a North American, European, and Southeast Asian georegion conference.
- All events will be free to attend for judges. (Hotel, transportation and food will not be provided.)
- Each event will feature one full and one half day of seminars, workshops and surrounding social events to grow together and learn as a community.
- Support for 2025 will be two Judge Packs of the current season, and in addition, one pack of Judge Pack Season 1!
We are happy to announce that we will rerun the Judges of Rathe merch catalog from early this year again this summer, for pickup at World Tours Singapore, Auckland, Kansas and Copenhagen; as well as another wave of orders for pickup later this year around Worlds. The item range will remain unchanged, with the addition of both a plastic and a metal version of the Judges of Rathe water bottle. Additionally, we are now able to facilitate a fully online payment system for all shows to make the process smoother for everybody.
A separate announcement for the webshop will be posted shortly, alongside an update to this section with the link.
The decklist tool has been released and put into practice for the World Tour weekend in London. Haven’t seen it yet? Check it out here! We are currently fixing some known bugs and usability issues, so if you see any, report them here. This tool is meant for usage at any event that requires decklists, like Pro Quests, Road to Nationals, Callings and more, as long as it’s a constructed format.
In the coming weeks, you will also see more documentation for judges and organizers around this tool. With this rollout, the usage of the role features also becomes more prominent.
Current features that are already live for Judges:
- Head Judge view: similar to Scorekeeper view, allows most actions like edit and manage decklists, assign fixed seating, edit matches, etc.
- Team Lead view: able to edit decklists, view decklists, and access player management.
- Floor Judge view: able to see players and decklists, and mark them as reviewed.
In the future, more functions will be built around this, like Pro Quest judge tracking and other quality of life features for judges at the events.
- The Learn to Play – Basic Certification already has at least 650+ individuals certified! Check out the article if you are interested in teaching others Flesh and Blood!
- First wave of maintenance has been completed. Around 900 Judges were demoted to a lower level. Maintenance helps Judges stay up to date with the rules and policy, as well as making it easier for organizers to find active Judges.
- The next Head and Support Judge evaluation will be in the summer. Requirements will be slightly changed since the last wave of evaluations, with the biggest change being that the Team Lead Certification will be required.
- Starting with World Tour Montreal, shows with a Calling or above will change their compensation scheme, with the shift to mostly monetary compensation. One box per weekend worked will remain part of the compensation package.
- A new policy is in place for Judge shirt etiquette. Orange Judge shirts will only be used for Calling and higher Head and Support Judges. This change is the result of a change in size of Battle Hardened events as well as logistical issues.
- We are currently reviewing applications for a new wave of Community Representatives, to be announced in the coming weeks.
- We are currently working on a Japanese translation for the Comprehensive Rules. Additionally, we are currently laying the groundwork for more translations in the future.
- We are currently in the process of hiring additional personnel to support Judges of Rathe at LSS. Stay tuned for more news soon!
