Requirements
For a tournament to be eligible for sponsorship it must satisfy following conditions:
1) It must be open for anyone to sign up.
2) Individual cards or decks can't be banned unless they are on an official ban list (currently no cards are banned).
3) Any chatrooms created to help organize and run a sponsored event are considered as sub-rooms of Official Organized Play Space. As such, Tournament Organizer is obliged to run the chat according to the Code of Conduct . Admins from the main official channels are available to assist with this if required.
Special situations may be considered, discretionarily, in a case by case scenario.
