================================================== ===

This is a deck building competition that will test the abilities of all those who enter. There will be two competitions a month, each spanning two weeks. In those two weeks entrants are to create a main deck and extra deck based on the theme given. Decks will be judged on a variety of criteria.

There are 7 judges. However, only 3 will judge at a time. The judges are as follows:
Cyber Kuriboh
ragda
vishra85
cyslim5
Shadow Master
BigStinkin'Ape
Marzbar

To enter the competition please private message your decks to each of the judges that are judging that competition. Those who are judging will be listed on the thread for that competition. Winners will have their decks posted for everybody to see. Decks are not to be posted in public to avoid copying of decklists and ideas.

Judging: There will be no complaining about results. You may discuss the results but any complaining about why somebody won will be counted as spam and will be infracted. Each judge was chosen for a distinct reason.
Cyber Kuriboh - I ran competitions similar to this when I was on Invasion.
ragda - Deck builder, great rulings knowledge, reputation for knowing how to use non-meta decks.
vishra85 - A good reputation. Knows a lot about the game and deck building.
cyslim5 - Stellar reputation. I cant say enough about how well he makes decks.
Shadow Master - Deck builder. Reputation. Find me a better qualified person.
Marzbar - Great player who specializes in working with unconventional concepts.
BigStinkin'Ape - Amazing player. Makes things that shouldnt work, work. If anybody can see a good deck it is him.

This is the place where I or any of the other judges will update this competition. Links to the winners will be edited into the original post as they are announced. Also, if you have any questions or suggestions for judges post them here.

First competition will be posted this Friday.

Sounds like fun, I miss running these competitions way back in the past. But couldn't keep up with it during the time I had to end my run of it :/

[cyslim5]

Marz ain't on the list O.o

Will be interesting to see what is gonna happen ;D

[anarchylord]

So wait, are we looking for creative decks or good decks? it doesnt really clarify.

[Cyber Kuriboh]

Good decks with a flair of ingenuity imo. However, the judges have the latitude to chose the deck that they think best fits the criteria given.

[cyslim5]

I think it's both good and creative that we are looking for.

Giving this a Bump.

to all those involved, as this is in it's fledgling stage, perhaps it woudl be best if we all try to promote it around the section so more members notice it.

Ah, my post disappeared...

Feel free. That is part of the reason to have rotating judges.

I wont be competing though unless it is a contest that I dont come up with the theme for.

@judges: If you PM me ideas for themes I'll try and use them quickly.
