Volunteering to organize and judge the MCC is a great boon to our custom card community. However, it comes with responsibilities and expectations of timeliness. In the interest of encouraging a quality competition with clear communication and advancement, we as a community establish these guidelines.
As a general rule if you are late, you have 24 hours to finish or post in the MCC discussion thread that you need more time. If you do not, you receive an infraction. The first time is a warning. Subsequent times results in a suspension from the contest. If you don't receive an infraction for six months, you can lose your warning status or reduce the time you would be suspended if you've been suspended before. However, if you keep missing deadlines and/or don't communicate that you need more time, you will keep getting suspended for longer with each infraction.
A more detailed guide to the rules and infraction levels are listed in the following spoiler:
Section 1 - Infraction Levels
