I had a friend ask me a question the other day. He went to the NV Pre-Release and the way they do it is you Pay but you do not get your packs till after ever one has entered and sometimes the judge will bring you your packs before starting round 1. Ok
Well here is what happen from his side of the story
He paid to enter. They seat ever one done at the tables But right before they gave out the packs the Judge DQed hm from the Tournament . He asked for his Packs and the Judge told him No. He demanded his money back and again the Judge told him no. That once you pay you can not change your mind and what the money back and once you get DQ you get nothing even if you pay for it.
His side of the story is
He was siting at a atable with his Trade binder open. When another player came up and wanted to trade the judge told him no tradeing during the event. So he closed his Binder up and told the guy that they would trade after the event a little bit before the first round the guy came back and asked my friend if he would sell any of his cards. My friend told him his amounts and that they would talk after the event. Well the guy ran to the Judge and thold him that my friend was planing on selling during the event and did not care about the No Trade rule. So he DQ him for not following the rules and not following orders. When friend says he wanted to give his statment for the Record the Judge say it was not need and that he already caught him trading before round 1. So it was grounds for DQ
Now its been 3 months and My friend was going to let it go till he got this email the other day from the Judge.
To all Players.
No Trading will be allowed before, During, or after Next Destinies pre-release.
No food or Drinks will be allowed in the Tournament area.
Players will be asked to either stay in their seats or leave the building after their match is over.
No siting with other players.
Break any of these rules will result in a DQ. Any DQ handed out before or during Round 1 will be forced to forfit all Prizes and Packs back to the Tournament staff.
After the event we will be having an After Draft were you can get more packs of Next Destinies. $15 to enter but to enter the After Draft you must enter the Main event. You will be given 5 more Next Destinies. Players who want to drop must play 1 round in the After Draft.
$25 = 8 Packs of Next Destinies + 1 Promo card and deck box
$40 = 13 Packs of Next Destinies + 1 Promo card and deck box
He says he has never had any problems with this Judge but this he thinks is not right. He also says that this is the first time they are doing an After Draft and he has talked with outs and 2 PTOs told him its not allowed because he will be using pre-release products as the packs and not older packs a 1 other TO told him it was allowed.
He wants to know
1. What happen to him at NV was allowed or should he at less got his packs
2. If any thing in the email is allowed or not
3. If the After Draft is not allowed who does he need to contact so have it stopped.
(Pokepop asked me to report this here. the other one can be locked)
Do to email and PM I have recived because I posted this.
This has NOTHING to do with my local PTO Monti Floyd So stop asking me and please stop telling Monti I am talking about him. He is not the Judge involved at all in this so Please do not pm me asking if its Monti because its not. And Please do not contact Monti as he is not involved at all.
