I'm back on the Modern RCQ grind this season, but ever since Spicerack was shut down, it's been difficult to find events. Decided to build surveil.land over the weekend to help locate RCQs, Store Championships, and other competitive MTG events (like 5Ks) around the world.

I build it as a single static site powered by data blobs in a bucket which are updated regularly via a cron job. With this design, I should be able to keep it running indefinitely so long as locator.wizards.com doesn't make any upstream changes (fingers crossed).

There's already a couple of other similar websites that have cropped up; competition is a good thing! My goals with surveil.land were a) to have an opinionated, unobtrusive design and b) to optimize for long-term maintainability. It should also be very responsive since there's no actual backend.
