I am a Level 1 Judge based out of Omaha, NE. I\u2019m starting with a bi-weeklyish blog post based on interesting judge calls. The focus of these post are twofold. One, come up with the correct ruling. Two, practice rewinds to see if you can rewind time to help you with making the right ruling.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these will have easy fixes but hard to walk back and vice versa. <strong>The goal of your responses should be to both of these two points. <\/strong>So give me your best rewind of the game\u2026and the ruling you would issue.<\/p>\n<p>Like I said, some of these will be caught in the wild and some will be fabricated. When the key is posted it will reflect where these cases came from and the information available.<\/p>\n<p>I am open to any interesting judge calls fabricated or out there in nature. Just submit them to me at <a href=\"mailto:charles1883@gmail.com\">charles1883@gmail.com<\/a> and include a picture, narrative, and outcome.<\/p>\n<p>So without further ado, here is one slow and over the plate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Judge!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are called over to a game between what looks like Scapeshift and Burn. The scapeshift player has just played Scapeshift and dealt the Burn player 18 damage. There is a life total discrepancy. The Scapeshift player had the Burn player at 17, but the Burn player says he\u2019s still at 20.<\/p>\n<p><a
