Hey all,

I am mentoring someone from my area with hopes to become a L1 judge and as opart of that I have advised him to apply to Judgesapp to get access tot he practice papers. He tells me that he has applied sometime ago already but never heard anything back from the application. How far back it was I do not know.

Does anyone know who I could talk to about this or where the policy about joining is now? I remember that it was changed in the wake of the unpleasantness over the last 12 months and I couldn't find it.

Any help appreciated!

Hi,

All accounts are manually approved (it's not an automated process). Currently, any Level 2+ judge can approve an account for use on JudgeApps. Read more in this article: https://blogs.magicjudges.org/judgeapps/2017/08/01/introducing-a-new-account-approval-process/ and the full documentation here: https://blogs.magicjudges.org/judgeapps/reviewing-new-accounts/

So they should contact their local Level 2+ judge to approve it. If they do not have a local Level 2+ judge, then they should be talking to their Regional Coordinator. They can contact their regional coordinator using this form: https://blogs.magicjudges.org/contact/contact-a-regional-coordinator/

Thanks,
Nathan Long
