Black Technology will be holding March Monthly Shop tournament this weekend as well. For those who want to sign up, please register by your usual means.

On the 14th of March, there will be another tournament held at Takashimaya. More details on that later…

After receiving feedback from the previous batch of Judge potentials, we have decided to revise the Judge Test and make it more accessible to future judge potentials.

There will be a Judge Test this 7th March 2010, Sunday morning from 10am to 12pm. Language of the paper will be in Japanese, however you can answer the test paper in English. Should you choose to answer the examination in Japanese, the passing grade of the test paper will be decreased by 5%. The passing grade of the paper is 75%. Potential Judges who did not pass the previous test can also attend this test.

Judge interests please register for the test by emailing to ws.nk.ds@gmail.com and include your full name and contact number. No exceptions will be given to those who are interested and did not register before 6th March 2010 Saturday night 10pm. Please bring a pen and be on time, a maximum of 15minutes grace period will be given to latecomers.

Read more for more details!

From Genesis Frontier Website:

The Singapore Game League System is a point scoring system which enables observers and players to be able to observe their own rankings in Singapore as a region.

Official Tournaments that would apply to the league table is as follows: monthly shop tournament, Trial deck, or any other tournament except for title cup.

Official Tournaments are tournaments that:

  1. have to be applied and approved by the Singapore Weiss Schwarz gaming committee and
  2. have an official judge judging at said tournament.

Official judges are judges who have taken the judge work shop and judge test conducted by the Genesis Frontier Game Division and is deemed suitable to be a judge.

Please note that a player who participate in one tournament cannot participate in another tournament of the same name by the sanctioned shops (for example if James participated in shop A’s monthly shop tournament, he cannot go to shop B’s monthly shop tournament)

Tabulation of scores would be as follows:

  • 1st place in a monthly shop tournament, Trial deck or any other tournament except for title cup : 4 points
  • 2nd place in a monthly shop tournament, Trial deck or any other tournament except for title cup : 3 points
  • 3rd place in a monthly shop tournament, Trial deck or any other tournament except for title cup : 2 points
  • 4th place in a monthly shop tournament, Trial deck or any other tournament except for title cup :1 point

The points would be tabulated from February onwards and will be standardized for all local official tournaments by Genesis Frontier. Points will be used as a gauge for invitation to the end of year tournament qualifiers.

Invitation to end of year tournament qualifiers also includes other criteria, which will be released later.

List of Official shops: The Card Geeks, Aniplay, Black Technology.

Psst, this just in from China’s information web… February (tentatively 27th, rumour says) will be releasing with a new Trial Deck for D.C./D.C.II PC (TY/FL)… and this time there are some radical changes.

  • 5 deck specials instead of 2
  • Multiple copies of certain deck special in the deck (Total of 10 special cards in a deck. Of which 2 are still 1 card each, 3 cards are given a total of 8 cards)
  • 3 signed cards instead of 2
  • 1 signed card in 6 decks instead of 12

And with Trial Deck there of course comes booster boxes… rumour mill also says it might appear in March (if math is good, it means 13th). Look out for any official announcements dudes.
