Return to Ravnica League - Event 7


Um. Derp...
Right.  Congrats to Cameron for his second 4-0 in a row!  Sorry for the late update again.

I would like to address an issue that I shouldn't need to.  But anyways, here it is.  Cheating and/or Douchebaggery is absolutely NOT tolerated in League.  Don't be a jerk.  Don't make your opponent feel bad for the games he/she just played with you.  It doesn't matter if you think you're a better player, it doesn't matter.  League is a fairly casual environment.  It is not a Pro Tour Qualifier or a major cash tournament.  Southern Ontario has a terrible group of competitive players when it comes to such events.  The behaviour of local competitive players is HORRIBLE and, in my opinion, completely unacceptable.  Not to mention most of the crap will get you at least a Warning if it were on camera.  As a Judge, I've made it my personal mission to prevent that kind of behaviour wherever I see it.  So obviously, I can't have any of that in my own League.

It's also my responsibility to make sure everyone feels comfortable at League.  I created League to introduce casual players to a more competitive and organized environment.  So if you feel uncomfortable or you don't understand something, let me know.  Call me over to your game, call Judge, do whatever you need to do.  I'll explain what's going on or provide a fix to the situation.  That's what I'm here for.  YOU.

Anyways.
