Me and Enti / Schneeente would like to request a judge Thursday 30th March 20:00 CET (UTC+1).

Regards

Can we promise it will be less than 3 hours?  I can try if we can keep it to 2.5 hours or less :)
I'm not sure if they can puddn. We can't force them to play a faster book or know exactly when the game will end.
The Phoenix shall rise.

If jack tells me beforehand which mage and strategy he is going to use, I could make an estimation!

I have made the necessary arrangements.  I can cover this game.  It would still be nice to have it be shorter, but it is not required.

Do you think that 4 hour MW games are too long? Then this thread is for you:

I know this is way more work, but for me, the youtube videos would be much more enjoyable to watch if (most) of the planning phases and extensively long thinking moments would have been cut in the video.

This is no critique to the players because I do this myself at certain moments. However, for a video, this is too slow for me.

Increase playback speed? Skip ahead during Planning?

I don't think I've ever watched a video of a match in its entirety. I generally play back at 1.5x and still skip the slow parts. It's not so much that I'm impatient as that I don't have infinite time for hobbies. Actual play time is a premium, and when I have spare moments I tweak spell books... rarely have time to watch other peoples' matches.

I did not see any sort of official post here about this game, but I can judge and record it.  I will NOT be streaming if I am covering the game solo.  The streaming has been messing with the recording (can't tell if PC or Internet is the real culprit).

The Arena opens in about 5 hours.
