Information for Judges

As those of you who’ve run virtual tournaments know, making sure all ballots get “picked up” and handling subsequent pushes is one of the trickiest parts. Gone are the days of walking through the common area to see who’s available to pick up a ballot. To help make this process smoother we need the help of our amazing judges in a few key ways.

  1. Prior to the start of the tournament, please verify your phone number in your SpeechWire account. This is vital for tournament staff  to effectively communicate with your throughout the weekend.
  2. At the beginning of your round, make sure to formally start the round on your SpeechWire Ballot. Do not wait until you begin making comments to open your ballot. This allows us to determine which ballots need to be pushed.
  3. Once you are ready to start the round, change your room status on Yaatly to “Ready” if you are experiencing technical issues please set your room status to “Need Help” so tournament staff are alerted to the issue.
  4. If you DO NOT receive a ballot please wait in the “Judge’s Lounge” in Yaatly for the first 10 minutes after the start of the round so that you can be easily located.
  5. If you are pushed a ballot you will receive an email and/or text from SpeechWire alerting you to the ballot. Pushes will also be announced in Yaatly via both the chat and announcements.
