    I think we could do that and maybe a gaming challenge? I'm calling it Sparktober, a 3 day shiny hunting challenge.

    If you want to run TCG tournaments online the best way by far is to use Limitless platform (there is an option of private tournaments for this case).

    At a point I was thinking about creating an organization account so I could be the main admin and create my own tournaments, but was short on time and needed at least 2 or 3 extra people to help managing and be judges.

    The account part it's not hard to do, just fill a form and wait for it to be approved… here is the link explaining how to do it if someone wants to organize tournaments:

    I would advise the person that decides to be an organizer to have at least a team of 2 or 3 people, it's more complicated than most people think to keep a tournment running smoothly… judges are essential (they must know very well the specific tournament rules, and the TCG rules in general even tho here the game does that part for you) and a dedicated Discord channel would help a lot the organization process to explain rules, share info with judes, etc.

    Sounds hard and indeed sometimes there are players trying to exploit situations, lying, disconnections, clock issues, etc. but in the end it's a lot of fun if you like what you are doing.
    I helped running my friends tournaments as judge several times and were fun experiences.

    We should think about an event quickly, as Halloween will come on the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, we will waste this Halloween.

    How about we do shiny ghost types, since that would be relatively easy, and there's an event going on right now.
