Follow new updates and improvements to Spicerack.

You can now run your own Regional Championship! Create a public leaderboard, invite other TOs to run qualifiers or points-earning events, and control how many points players get based on event tiers you create — everything is fully customizable.
You can now enable an automated waitlist that will turn on once your event hits capacity and will send players an email once a spot has opened up (ordered by who joined the waitlist first). With the automated waitlist turned on, the system will try to keep your event as close to capped as possible even if players cancel last-minute.
Long gone are the days of fake “8 Rack” and incorrectly categorized decklists. Simply select all your players in the registrations tab, hit Actions
→ Apply Suggested Archetypes
and voila! The correct archetype is applied to all the decks. You can then hit Actions
→ Get Metagame Breakdown
to get an export of all the archetypes at the event, and how many players are playing each deck.
