Ciao Judges! This week we continue our tour to meet the Level 4+ judges, and stop in Italy to talk with Cristiana Dionisio<\/a><\/span><\/span>, who is making her second<\/a> Judge of the Week appearance. Let’s meet her!<\/p>\n

\"\"Name:<\/strong> Cristiana Dionisio, but everybody calls me just Cri.
\nLevel:<\/strong> 4
\nLocation:<\/strong> I\u2019m Italian. I was born in a small quiet city 50km to the south of Rome but I currently live in\u2026 hmmm\u2026 somewhere in the world
\nJudge start dates:\u00a0<\/strong>L1: January 2003,\u00a0L2: September 2003,\u00a0L3: December 2005,\u00a0L4: April 2011
\nOccupation:<\/strong> Hasbro Contractor
\nFavorite card:<\/strong> Vesuvan Doppelganger<\/a>
\nLeast favorite card:<\/strong> Sinkhole<\/a>
\nFavorite format:<\/strong> Standard
\nCommander general:<\/strong> I don\u2019t play Commander\u2026 sorry. The best General ever is Giuseppe Garibaldi<\/a>.
\nFavorite non-Magic Game:<\/strong> Taboo XXL<\/a>
\nBest tournament result:<\/strong> 20th at Italian Regionals. I also won 2 Prereleases.
\nRandom fact about yourself:<\/strong> I love lions! When I was 9 years old, while I was playing at the beach with my brother, an Arabian man who was carrying a very small male lion in a leash put it in my arms asking if I wanted to buy it. It was love at first sight and I cried for hours when my parents said no. How can you say no to such a request?<\/p>\n

How did you become a L4+?<\/strong>
\nIn 2007 Davide Bonati (former Italian Office responsible) asked me to become the \u201cItalian Judge Manager\u201d – it was a new role to take care of judges, talk to TOs, solve issues, prevent problems, select HJs. In 2010 the “local judge manager” Role became what today is called a Regional Coordinator; Andrew Heckt<\/a><\/span><\/span> divided the world into Regions and designated a Regional Coordinator for each one. After 4 years of performing the role with good results, Andy and the other L4+ Judges decided that I was doing well and I fitted the role of RC Coordinator and assigned RCs as my sphere.<\/p>\n

\"No,<\/a>
No, the happy look on their faces does NOT mean did just demoted someone. \ud83d\ude42<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What are you currently working on within the judge program?<\/strong>
\nTogether with RCs and Sean Catanese<\/a><\/span><\/span> we are especially taking care of misconduct and procedures to demote\/de-certify L1-2s who misbehaved or don\u2019t have the requirements anymore. We are finding the best ways and practices to handle these cases. RCs are also talking about new L2 requirements.<\/p>\n

Tell us your favorite judge story.<\/strong>
\nMy first DQ was to a guy who had slightly different sleeves added intentionally. The guy admitted he was cheating. At the end of the investigation, when I told him that he was DQ’ed, he asked to talk to me in private and he pointed to a girl that was seated in a corner of the room. He said ‘See that girl? She is from Brazil and doesn\u2019t speak Italian at all, I told her that I am the worldwide Magic<\/strong> champion to convince her to date me. So today I cheated because I need to win this PTQ to keep the story believable. SO please DQ me but do it in a quiet way.’<\/p>\n

Two Truths and A Lie<\/strong>
\nTwo of the following statements are true and one is false. Figure out which!<\/p>\n

1. I am very selective
\n2. I see things as black and white.
\n3. I am very evil!<\/p>\n

[expand title=”The answer to the last Two Truths and a Lie…”]Guilame admits: “I may be well-traveled but I do not speak fluent German.”[\/expand]<\/p>\n

If there is a judge who is also doing something exemplary, please nominate a judge\u00a0TODAY!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
