READ THE NEWS STORY; IT HAS THE ANSWERS TO ALL YOUR TOURNAMENT-RELATED QUESTIONS
Every month I get questions that could be answered by reading the news story. Read the news story. It will help, I promise.
To ensure you are apprised of all relevant updates, please make sure to "Watch" this thread. You will (should) receive notifications every time a post is made. Alternatively, you can "Follow" me personally so you can be notified every time I post (I think that's how it works?).
That said, not receiving a notification is no excuse for not manually checking this thread at the start of every round.

PLAYER LIST
Here is the signup list for your convenience. Use it to speed things along. The name in parentheses next to a player's username is their PTCGO username. If there is no name following their username, their PTCGO username is the same as their PB username.
Please make sure your PTCGO username is correct. Your PTCGO username is the name you battle with, not what you sign in with. If this is the case, please PM me ASAP so I can fix it, and please PM your opponent so they can make the necessary changes as well.

TOURNAMENT TIMETABLE
Here are all the deadlines for every round. I will post each round's deadline in the main thread as well as in each individual round's post in the pairings thread.
If you aren't sure when the round ends, check! It's right here!
Round 1: Monday 7/3/17 to Thursday 7/6/17
Turn in your deck list to PMJ by: Thursday 7/6/17
Round 2: Friday 7/7/17 to Monday 7/10/17
Round 3: Tuesday 7/11/17 to Friday 7/14/17
Round 4: Saturday 7/15/17 to Tuesday 7/18/17
Round 5: Wednesday 7/19/17 to Saturday 7/22/17
Round 6: Sunday 7/23/17 to Wednesday 7/26/17
Round 7: Thursday 7/27/17 to Sunday 7/30/17
Top 8: Monday 7/31/17 to Wednesday 8/2/17*
Top 4: Thursday 8/3/17 to Saturday 8/5/17*
Finals: Friday 8/6/17 to Sunday 8/8/17*
*Top cut rounds will end early if everyone has completed their match.
You can submit your list to me any time before the deadline. You do not have to do your match first. If the deadline approaches and you and your opponent still haven't fought yet, I would suggest sending me your list so you can get it approved. If I don't approve your list by the deadline, it's okay as long as I receive it before the deadline. Outlined below is the very simple way that I accept lists. It's not hard, so the only way you can muck it up is if you haven't read this post.
TOURNAMENT CHANGES FOR JULY
-
Both players are now responsible for reporting the results of your match. Get in the habit of posting your results immediately after your match. If you're not sure if your opponent is going to do it, ask. If they aren't posted within two minutes, do it yourself. I don't care if it gets double posted; I care more that it gets posted at all, and you should, too.
- A link to the bracket can now be found at the top of this post, for your convenience.
- Everyone who wins packs is obligated to give me unused codes
HOW TO PROPERLY SUBMIT YOUR DECK LIST
Have PTCGO copy your deck list to the clipboard, paste it in a new conversation to me, and hit send.
This is the
only way I will accept your deck list, so pay attention. Here's a pretty old image that I should probably update soon to help you out if you don't know what I'm talking about:
In the deck manager, pressing the button highlighted in the picture will copy your deck list to the clipboard. The program will even tell you it's done.
Now, in the conversation to me, right click and Paste, or hit CTRL + V to paste the contents. Make sure PTCGO approves of your list before you send it - if it's legal for them, that's a good sign.
If your client is not in English,
do not translate your card names. Let me worry about that. Just copy it to the clipboard, paste, and hit send. Easy.
Round 1 ends Thursday, July 6, at 11:59 PM EDT. You have until that time to send me your list and get it approved. Do not assume that just because you sent it means it was approved. Be sure to get confirmation before you relax.
Don't forget you all promised to make 3 posts! We love to see people contributing to our community and doing their part to help it grow. Three posts is easily doable. Please do it. Or else.
Do not post match results in this thread. Post them in the main thread only.
