So I did. I have no regrets. I love being a judge. But I wish I had more time for Magic as a whole. (Studies are time consuming, so with that and my horse, there isn&#8217;t a lot of time left. I still do my best because I am truly passionate about judging!!)<\/li>\n<li><strong>What excites you most about this event?:<\/strong> It will be my first GP and it is something I looked forward to a lot ever since I started playing Magic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>What worries you most about this event?:<\/strong> I am worried I will not be good enough as a floor judge. Worried I might not know the format well enough. Worried I might be a dead weigh for the team. But I know it&#8217;s all irrational and I shouldn&#8217;t worry about it. \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<li><strong>What are you hoping to learn at this event?:<\/strong> I want to learn how GPs work, how all the teams coordinate, etc. I want to learn more about everything.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Who are your mentors?:<\/strong> Tomas Ornowski, Julien Laronde, Quentin Boussardon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>What challenges have you faced or are you facing to become a better judge?:<\/strong> Having better hard-skills.<\/li>\n<li><strong>How have you worked to overcome those challenges?:<\/strong> I am currently working on them. Sharpening my document knowledge. It takes time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>What is the best part about your local Magic community?:<\/strong> People are friendly and they&#8217;re quite healthy players. Not a lot of salty persons. Some, of course, but just a few ones. Most of the guys are kind and fun to be around.<\/li>\n<li><strong>What is your favorite Magic memory?:<\/strong> A KCI mirror with my boyfriend. &gt;:D It was so much fun. Building my Oona Queen of the Fae multiplayer commander was another great memory. \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend in Lille, we have four new judges to Welcome to the Fold!
