Recognizing Excellence
A message from : “Hello judges! Firstly, I just wanted to update you on the mailing associated with Exemplar Wave 2. We’ve just sent an email to everyone who received a recognition during the wave with a link to a form where they can fill in their mailing address. The deadline for this will be […]
Written by Kim Warren Level 4, United Kingdom The dust has started settling after the Modern Masters 2015 weekend, and judges are starting to have the time to focus on other things. With such a large proportion of the world’s judges having been involved in this weekend in one way or another, there will have been […]
A message from : “While things are more or less in place for Wave 3 of Exemplar, we’ve decided to wait until the week after the MM2 GPs to open the wave and explain the changes in a blog post. We’ll be doing this next week regardless of the mailing status of Wave 2; there […]

Which means that everything is in place to get things started to wave 2! Wave 1 was advertised as […]
Hey everyone. Due to some technical issues linked to the recent Wizards database changes, there’s been some delay in terms of getting the Exemplar wave 1 mail out sorted. I’ve been hearing that some judges have been voicing concerns that the delay on this front indicates that the program has been abandoned, so I just […]
