Oracle Text:

Today we ask important questions: what is a judge? who are judges? why judges?

We're dipping our Standard toes into the deep, deep pool of judging: what is a judge's role? how can I find a judge? what are judges? Think of this a primer to judges for those of you who may never have interacted with a judge and/or are not familiar with the role judges play in Magic. Rest assured we will be going into much, much more detail about judges in the future, and perhaps we'll even have a special guest judge...!

Important topics include:

• How to use a judge at your event
• What a judge is for at casual events
• What a judge can provide for their players

| This episode of Raise the Standard was recorded at the State Library of Victoria. Raise the Standard and its hosts would like to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land we operate on. We acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong / Boon Wurrung peoples as the Traditional Owners of the land. We pay our respects to their elders past and present, and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
