Sign Up to become a Judge!
« on: August 27, 2012, 12:24:35 PM »
Don't fancy actually participating but want to help the games along? Fascinated by poetry and writing and art? Judging could be for you!

Judges will be given some events (number depending on how many judges we have!) for which it is their job to judge the entries. Judges may not participate in the teams, and may also be called upon as a final port of call in disputes over refereeing decisions. Clearly, the judges will be vital to the games running smoothly, and so we'd love to see you with the judges. To sign up, just put your name here along with any particular judged events you either really do or really don't want to judge (see the events & notes thread for details).

Current judges:
Othko97
The Khan
Sir J de Gamer
Confederate Jeb
SturmChurro
Doomchild
Dripping D

So we can't be a judge and participate in the non-judged events?

Was wondering the same thing.
It's better to live within your dreams then to live without them.

This is indeed the case, because judges have to not have a team in order to preserve their independence.

If it turns out to be a real problem we'll implement double-blind judging but that would be a pain in the bum. I'm hoping we'll have enough volunteers on this basis anyway.

Or maybe you could let judges compete independently?

Could do, but then that screws up the medal table a bit.

Oh hell, I guess someone has to be a judge. Put me down for it.

You sure you don't want to do the RTW events? I'm not too worried about judge numbers for the moment.

I'll be a judge. I probably couldn't do any goos in the competitions anyway.
Most effective elected official. Ever. (not counting Jubal)

He is Jubal the modder, Jubal the wayfarer, Jubal the admin. And he has come to me now, at the turning of the tide.

Confederate Jeb from TWC here. I'm willing to serve as a judge for all the non-game categories, and if needed I can help out with the games.
