Editor's Notes
- The purpose/goal is to give you tools to become a better judge What’s the audience of this talk? Everyone, but especially: L1’s interested in advancing to L2, applying for bigger events L2’s working on making their GPs more effective, thinking towards L2’s and others who are Team Leads/Head Judges for big events and wanting to help the development of other judges
- Leadership by example Communication – clearly articulating and formulating goals, and communication them to others Attitude and Maturity – work ethic, time management Self-evaluation – knowing what you need to advance and improve, knowing your weaknesses

- Guess Culture and Ask Culture is a fable and a paradigm; it’s a way of looking at reality, not necessarily reality itself “One of my wife's distant friends has attempted to invite herself to stay with us, again. She did this last March, and we used the excuse of me starting a new job and needing to do x, y, and z as well as the "out of town" excuse for any remaining dates. This got us off scot-free, but we both knew the time would come again... and it's here. We need a final solution.” What kind are you? https://www.facebook.com/jamisontasha/posts/10202296691034329?stream_ref=10 Neither is “bad” or “better” Judging has bits of both You will generally need to *ask* if you want to get things like Day 2 main event, HJ a large side event, Team Lead at a PTQ or SCG Open, especially if you have never done any of these things before. Communication in both directions is ideal; e.g. Nicholas Sabin

- Importance of self-assessment Self: Consult reviews! Person used to say “who do you want to work with? Moving beyond wanting to “be The Guy”
- Motivation – positive (I’m so close!), guilt, negative
- John Alderfer alluded to this in his own talk earlier
- “Challenging, but not impossible”
- Personal example: Ice Imports’ first PTQ. I may have been the right person, but it wasn’t the right time for them.
- This is the part of the talk that’s for those who are L2+, who want to be L2, who want to Head Judge or Team Lead at events i.e. (not just at the end-of-day debrief).

- “checklisting”? What does it mean to be “looking towards L3”? Ask people how they would refine this goal

- Browsing through my old facebook posts i came across my fearless magical inventory. (read next level magic) and decided that I wanted to do something like that for judging. I am not going to post a whole self review, just more of a goal of mine, that I want to be public, so anyone with advice can chime in, and to motivate me to pursue this a little more. Someday, I want to head judge a Star City Open. for the next few months I am working on getting really solid with policy and the comp rules section by section, what should I work on from there? ---- I think it's important to consider that having a goal is often less important than the way you go about accomplishing it. Phrased differently: I think your goal shouldn't be to Head Judge an Open. Rather, your goal should be to become the kind of judge that would be capable of Head Judging an Open. That said, here's a few thoughts. * Talk with other judges who have judged SCG Opens (e.g. Casey Brefka, Michael Caffrey) and the path they walked to get there. Legacy Open Head Judges are usually advanced L2s. * Being up front about your goals with your RC is always helpful. * Being offered a Head Judge spot requires being noticed. Mastering rules and policy are important, but so are how you carry yourself on the floor and establishing a lasting relationship with a particular TO. * Ask for team lead positions at SCG Opens, PTQs, etc. Leading 3-4 people is a good way of proving you can handle bigger responsibilities. * Similarly, try to get Head Judge spots at other events (SCG IQ's, charity events, large pre-releases, possibly PTQs). When you floor judge other events, mention your goal to the HJ. Ask if you can shadow them on appeals and investigations, and talk to them about the logistics leading up to/during/after the event. --- https://www.facebook.com/groups/174764119273626/permalink/480607702022598/
