This was true for what concerns rule\/policy cases (like the past in flame deck check, both during and after the investigation, and for what concerns the organization and management of the event (like break scheduling). Every time you had a clear and global view of the topic, with a reasoned opinion, and were able to clearly show the logic behind your opinion, while honestly placing it in play, at the same time. You apply the same kind of deep and structured analysis to the judge program and it has been really interesting to discuss with you about it after the event, thank you!&#8221;<\/em>[\/cets_callout_box]<\/p>\n<p><span class='judge-tooltip'><a href='https:\/\/apps.magicjudges.org\/judges\/dci\/89287453' >Valdas Kalvis<\/a><span class='avatar'><img width='200' height='200' src='https:\/\/apps.magicjudges.org\/dci\/avatar?dci=89287453&size=200'><\/span><\/span> had this to say about Riccardo:<br \/>\n[cets_callout_box style=&#8217;gray&#8217; align=&#8217;full&#8217; title=&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>&#8220;Riccardo, when we talked at GP London about me being busy during WMCQ season, I didn&#8217;t expect you to adjust your vacation plans to take two events from my hands.
