Using that logic, shuffling your deck without the use of a card effect wouldn't be a Major penalty either, as random would be random. However, the existence of that penalty explicitly under Major shows that the intent is to maintain an order, even if that order was previously randomized and is...

This argument is been going on for a long time, with people on both sides having very good points. However, direction from the folks at TPCI to Judges has been to reveal and replace inappropriately drawn cards. As Fincastle was saying, it's believed that the deck has a set order, even when that...

They already confirmed that - Players playing Friday get bags Players qualifying through T4 @ Worlds 2014 get Day 1 (Friday) invites Players who make T8/T4/T2 at US Nationals get 300 CP (enough for a Day 1 (Friday) invite) Players who win US Nationals get 500 CP (Enough for a Day 1 (Friday)...

brb, moving to Virginia.

Day 1 is still Worlds. If it wasn't Worlds, they wouldn't be getting their swag bags for it!

But if Player 2 had an empty discard pile prior to playing LTC, why would playing LTC be an issue? He hasn't played a Supporter this turn. WAIT! It could have been a Charon's Choice! Oh the hilarity that would ensue... Judge: "So, you both agree his discard pile was empty before he played...

Plusle hit the nail on the head for #1. For #2, if P2 had an empty discard when he played LTC, what's the issue? Really though, just about every improper LTC situation can be equated back to the resolutions we use for N - Random Receiver for LTC, drop it into the play field, and then claim you...

You may want to take a quick look back at 7.1.2 (GPE - Major) before you say shuffling without the use of a card effect is 7.1.3 (GPE - Severe). Regarding the item use, it's not nearly as clear as shuffling (as that's written in black and white), but it's pretty obvious that it's not nearly on...

No. You need to have something to discard to get the bonus. See http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?176768-Zoroark-(BW)-v-Landorus-EX&highlight=Judgment

I don't like that the lids match each other, and not the rest of the tin.

Yup, here it is! Just so you have a place to put it, and an excuse to ask (because now I'm curious too!): If you attach a Fire energy to Eevee FFI and activate it's Ability, evolving it into Plasma Flareon, would it take damage from Frozen City? Some thoughts, just because I like having them -...

I tend to just feign ignorance, quote the rule, and tell them I'm bad at the math so I don't know more than that... ... maybe it's not as feigned as I'd like to believe...

Just to point something out - by your own admission, you were presented with both options for making day 2; X-2 or Top 32, whichever allows more players. 21 points was the correct point to hit for an x-2 defined cut, and you chose to ignore the other option and base your tournament on only the...

Oh boy, mini-regionals both days. This will be FUN.

Wayne, take a quick look back at the TCG Rules and Formats. BACK is key here - the frills we're talking about are on the face, not the back. Also from the same section (2): Assuming the frills don't obscure card text (all the ones I've seen don't, though I don't want to make a blanket...
