Wizards of the Coast announced today a special tournament in appreciation of all the hard work judges do for competitive play. The event, held over the course of two weekends, is open to ALL judges and will be played on Magic Online. Details from the Facebook announcement:

"The Magic Online Judge Open (MOJO) is a free Magic Online sealed deck tournament (Rise of the Eldrazi) open to all certified judges around the World. Because of time zones and a desire to let as many judges play as possible, it actually consists of two tournaments over consecutive weekends. (Every judge is invited to the first one. Every judge who doesn't participate in the first one is invited to the second.)

June 26, 2010. 7am at GMT - 7 (US West Coast)

July 2, 5pm at GMT - 7 (US West Coast)

[Please triple check what these times are in your region.]

Some goals of the Magic Online Judge Open include:

- To thank you for all your efforts, both at tournaments and outside of them

- To give you a day of Magic where you don't have to worry about giving, or even getting, a single penalty

- And to give you a chance to spend some quality time with your peers and make some new friends from around the globe"

Prizes include online cards, judge promos, and even sponsored trips to the Pro Tour or Worlds.
