The '''Ottawa Hybrid Tournament''' is open to the public, more or less, and is held every March at the University of [[Ottawa]]. It is a packet-submission tournament, but organizer [[Ben Smith]] usually ends up writing most of it. It began in 2005 as a quick cash grab for funds to travel to an ICT, but has steadily gone down in price and up in quality. It is sometimes mirrored by [[UBC]] and [[Georgia]].

==2010 OHT==
 
Partly in response to the 2009 [[VETO]], the 2010 tournament was overhauled with an editing team of Smith, Aaron Dos Remedios, and Brendan McKendy.  Jordan's unnamed team won again at the Ottawa site [http://www.uotrivia.ca/stats/oht10/oht10_standings.html].  The tournament was mirrored at [[Waterloo]], where it was won by a team from Toronto.
 
 
 
==2011 BLASTOISE==
 
[[Ottawa]] did not the Hybrid this year. The annual March hybrid tournament was intended to be be run jointly by two high schools named The [[Bell]] [[Lisgar]] Academic & Sexy Trash Open Inside the South-East (BLASTOISE). The same writing, editing, and fee structure was used. Ultimately, [[Bell]] gave up their editorial position and the tournament was run solely by [[Lisgar]]. [[Jordan Palmer]] won the tournament again. [[Ottawa]] was second. BLASTOISE was mirrored in several sites in the United States.
 
 
 
==2012==
 
No hybrid was held this year.
 
 
 
==2013==
 
The hybrid returned to [[Ottawa]] and was led by [[Jordan Palmer]] and included an editing team of McKendy, Dennis Beeby, Shelby Robert, and Radu Popescu. The packet-submission tournament was announced only a month before the event, resulting in some very tight deadline for early submission discounts. A freelance team of students Rein Otsason from [[Toronto]], Huma Zafar from [[Waterloo]] and adults Eric Smith and Aaron Dos Remedios, and Eric Smith defeated a team officially entered as McGill with members from [[Carleton]], [[McGill]], and [[Lisgar]]. Eric Smith was the highest scorer.
