Hey Slither, Just to let you know, there are some LV3 YGO Rules judges that are able to give you the LV3 YGO Rules test without a UDE official present. The only one I can think of in that area would probably be Dave Brent (but he's been really busy lately) or John Williams (the head judge...

Hey Duelmaster !!! It certainly helps if you study the damage step chart. Actually, it helps a lot. It's been my experience when administering the test, a lot of people miss those questions when it concerns the damage step...so there's a legal heads-up for you right there. Read the...

Hello fellow judges !!! I was at SJC Columbus for some Yu-Gi-Oh! fun and madness. I was moderately succesful in my goal, which was to ruin all my opponent's tiebreakers with my Thunder Dragon tech haha. Needless to say, I was moderately successful, going 5-5 and placing 200th overall. Next...

Wow...I think you're right Skey23...all three of us WILL be there. I really look forward to meeting you. Very neat...I'm gonna ask Julia Hedberg to take a picture of us....hehehe. We should try to confuse the PES support staff by being in different teams...so when they look at me and ask...

Hello fellow judges !!! Well, it turns out that UDE was a little behind in their timeline for replies. I just got a reply about my sponsorship application and I got accepted for full sponsorship !!! Whew !!! I hope to see some of you guys there...especially you John Danker !!! So...

Hmmm...looks like you got the essentials. At least you're more prepared and organized than the average player (or most players for that matter). If you have a hand-held calculator, I would go ahead and bring it along...just in case you are being attacked by a Gyaku-Gire Panda and 3 Milus...

Congratulations !!! Welcome to the evil world of Lvl 3 judging, where when you need a rulings question...you either get another question...or just dead silence. Hehe...I just realized there are now THREE Simons... Are you also Asian? Are you Bald? (I'm both...Simon Choy is...

Hello all !!! Here's what I got from my packs at the Sneak Preview in Louisville, KY: 2x Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder (Ultra Rare) 3x Divine Dragon - Excelion (Super Rare) 3x Ancient Gear Castle (Super Rare) 2x Malfunction (Ultimate Rare) 2x Damage Condenser (Super Rare)...

Hello all !!! I normally wouldn't be posting anything at all about this event, since it's still 3 months away, however, I did notice that someone asked about whether or not the Level 2 Yu-Gi-Oh! rules knowledge test will offered at the SJC. Since the SJCs are two day events, I'm fairly...

Hi all !!! I'm just killing time waiting for my shuttle service to arrive to bring me to the Orange County airport. Yeah, Feroze's deck was nuts. Him and I were up real early on Saturday, and we were like, "You know what, screw this. Let's play what we wanted to play." He threw in...

Haha...hey, I think higher level Yu-Gi-Oh! judges would be great presidential candidates.

I'm really glad that Metagame put the spotlight on John, as he is a terrific human being and judge. He's living proof that knowledge of the game alone does not make a great judge, but that it also requires a combination of integrity, maturity, charisma, and professionalism, in order to TRULY...

You're awesome Novastar...I now can rationalize Serial Spell to my players tomorrow. The Fox Fire/Atomic Firely thing is starting to become less hazy...I'm an idiot...Kevin Tewart even made that comparison and I completely looked over it :cry: Thanks for the info !!!!

Novastar, you're the soul of courtesy...you weren't critical at all. Actually, about the whole Serial Spell thing...I thought it would be like Double Spell...and with Double Spell you do pay the costs you are using (like 1000 LP for using your opponent's Confiscation) But, you bring up very...

Hey Novastar !!! Thanks for your input. I definitely agree with you about Raging Flame Sprite, it sounds like a trigger effect monster, not a continuous one. Unfortunately, Konami told Kevin Tewart that's the way it is and he passed the info along on the UDE judges board. As for A-Team Trap...

Before we continue, I need to put in a little disclaimer. When you read the part on Serial Spell; the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th questions and their answers, you may not agree with them. That's cool and I won't be offended...especially with the 2nd question. I don't even like it. However, people much...

Hello everyone !!! I originally compiled this FAQ in order to (hopefully) inform the dueling public when they participate at the Sneak Preview this weekend in my neck of the woods. I actually have a copy of this posted at Yugiohrealms; however, maybe I can help my fellow judges out across the...

Re: Priority v. 1.1 (All Read before posting priority quest.) Ah yes, the inevitable Priority thread. It was bound to happen, since there are so many intelligent and resourceful judges present in this forum (wish I could be a part of that group). The following is my informed opinion on how...

And don't forget...the almighty Time Wizard's effect allows the player to retain priorty as well !!! (No, I'm not kidding)

OK, UDE told us that Level 3 judges are required to make one rulings mistake per week...so to avoid the appearance of omniscience. (yeah, right   :-D) Seriously though, according to our evil Ojama netrep, what Somewan said is absolutely correct and I am 100% wrong. Otakunonamae, I'm sorry...
