“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist. He is the founder of CLAWS , an organization based in Botswana that's working at the intersection of cutting-edge wildlife research and community driven conservation.

Join Bryan, Charles, and Marcos as they spend entirely too much time and go into entirely too much detail on all the things you need to consider when taking a call as a Judge. Quick, what are the first three things you should do when you hear “Judge!”. Did you know there are things were supposed to be doing even before that? There are many types of calls you might get at an event. Running all the way from requests to go to the bathroom/request for oracle text, all the way up to having to de-escalate players calling each other cheaters. We spend this episode talking about the tips and tricks you need in order to successfully navigate all these different types of calls at your LGS all the way up to the Pro Tour…

Are you expecting a racing pun here? Too bad, because our special guest, Perry Kraker used them all in the episode. Like I would have to resort to Smokey and the Bandit, Days of Thunder, or maybe even Christine puns. And no one wants that.

1:19:39

Hello and Welcome to JudgeCast. Join Bryan, Charles, and Marcos as we take a somewhat tongue-in-cheek take on the Top 10 worst rules/mechanics in Magic. We pull from the IPG, MTR, and Comprehensive Rules on this tour-de-force of utter nonsense. We talk about rules, mechanics, and policy that are hard to keep straight or cause problems with judges or events. And no, banding does not make the list. Get out of here. Banding is easy.…

JudgeCast #338 – The Festivus Airing of Grievances (And other more positive things) 1:11:05

πριν 17 weeks1:11:05

1:11:05

Happy Festivus listeners! Bryan, Charles, and Marcos are feeling festive, and you all know what that means. Time for an airing of grievances! Modeled after the incredibly relevant and timely episode of Seinfeld from 1997, we share how we find tinsel too distracting, how you’ve all disappointed us in the last year, and finish off with the feats of strength, where we wrestle an actual bear cub before the festivities can properly begin. Or you know, we share our accomplishments over the last year in our feats of strength, share things that we have genuine grievances over, and round things off with a Festivus Miracle because we like positive endings, even when we make the theme of an episode “airing grievances.” Happy Holidays and looking forward to even more JudgeCast shenanigans in 2025!!

Warning: This episode is light on technical rules/policy content. In the spirit of the US Thanksgiving holiday, Bryan, Charles, and Marcos look back over the last year and reflect on what we are thankful for within the Judging and larger M:TG community. It’s a bit sappy, but each host brings several items we are thankful for, and some of us didn’t even need to stretch or say the same thing twice only with different words.

1:13:25

Uh…what happened this week? Bryan, Charles, and Marcus talk about the recent commander bans and the community response that became so reprehensible it culminated in the RC ceding ownership of the format to Wizards in order to protect themselves. Oh, and there were some policy updates to Missed Trigger and such. That’s what you are really here for. You can get that commander chatter on countless youtube videos, but you can only get a thoughtful discussion regarding the MTR shortcut and how it applies to Cavern of Souls but not Arena of Glory right here!
