Announcing JUDGE JRAY & The S17 Power Rankings

For Season 17 of RGL, and possibly beyond, the Anglerfish Network will be producing a lot of new content to celebrate this stacked competitive season.

First of all, we're currently taking applications for JUDGE JRAY.

___ The Sales Pitch ___

JUDGE JRAY - Resolve your NA TF2 Community Disputes LIVE with Independent Arbitration

Do you have beef with someone? Someone didn't pay you back for lunch at LAN? Get cut from your team unfairly? Well, if you want to be a smart-ass and prove you're right, then now you can on JUDGE JRAY

Basically, it's just a knock-off Judge Brown, Judge Judy, etc. type show. We'll take about 3 to 5 cases with both a plaintiff and defendant and decide who is in the right. Each case will probably last about 10-15 minutes. Fairness not guaranteed, yelling not required but strongly encouraged. We hope to stir up some of the spice that's been missing from the community since the death of the infamous ESEA-Open seasonal threads.

Why sign up to argue with each other instead of sitting some post-pug VC at 1 AM yapping at each other like normal? For your time, you'll be given some financial compensation. The winner of each dispute will win $10-$25 (scaled based on severity + entertainment value + maybe some additional incentives), and if you want to "bet" extra items to be arbitrated on as payment, you're free to do so as well to raise the stakes. Winners will be determined by either judge (me), panel (judge + 2 assistants), or by jury vote (if there are enough live viewers who decide to watch this shit for some reason).

Send your case applications for your cases to _giblert on Discord or use this Google forms application. This will air live at 8 PM Eastern this Saturday, February 1st. Also taking volunteers for assistants. Currently, je'mond has volunteered as bailiff.

Update: Due to repeated scheduling issues, this will now be a video with each case recorded separately, due to repeated scheduling issues with people failing to appear in court.
___

As an additional plug, we'll be doing weekly power rankings updates accompanied by a short-ish hour long podcast each week, recapping the previous weeks of Invite and Advanced matches.
Rankings spreadsheet here.

Unfortunately, I got too drunk for the recording of the first one and it ended up disastrous and mildly Chinese supremacist, so to make a better impression, the first real episode will be available sometime before the week 2 matches.

Hello,

Thanks to everyone for your interest and support so far.

The rankings will continue to be updated weekly throughout the season. We've also released the first horrendous video show of the rankings which was recorded before week 2, but posted late as part of the officerreekz originals network (branching out from vod theft). All links and updates will be included in the original post from now on.

And for the courtroom thing, this is now an open invitation for anyone any time. It was originally planned to be livestreamed today. However, due to multiple people cancelling on the day of (aka Slicerogue, Unc Sanity, + one other anonymous plaintiff), this will now be a video with each case recorded separately, so scheduling is now flexible any time you can make it. If you have any disputes you want to resolve, big or small, feel free to contact me (_giblert on Discord) any time for a chance to win cash prizes and CS2 crates. Or, alternatively, fill out this Google form.

https://forms.gle/e1AtcF7C2EvjQaq46

The final video with the best cases will be compiled and posted at the end of the season, so any time between now and then, feel free to reach out.

Thanks,
Jonathan Ray
