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 mirrored in several sites in the states, including [[VCU]]'s trash day.

==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 write 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, and [[Patrick Liao]] suffered some academic consequences by spending time to be the head editor. Ultimately, [[Bell]] gave up their editorial position and the tournament was run solely by [[Lisgar]]. [[Jordan Palmer]] and his team 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 was edited by a team of Dennis Beeby, Melinda Mah, Brendan McKendy, [[Jordan Palmer]], Radu Popescu, and Shelby Robert,. 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 Rein Otsason from [[Toronto]], Huma Zafar from [[Waterloo]] and adults Eric Smith and Aaron Dos Remedios defeated a freelance team of Charles Korwin from [[Carleton University]], [[Derek So]] and Hunter Book fom [[McGill]], and Andrej Vukovic from [[Lisgar]]. Eric Smith was the highest scorer.
 
 
 
==2014==
 
The editing team consisted of Jordan Palmer, Dennis Beeby, Shelby Robert, Brendan McKendy, and Joe Su. Waterloo A, aka The Bald Soprano in Britney Spears, (Aayush Rajasekaran, Christine Irwin, Akosua Asanta, Cam MacInnis) won the tournament, and [[Derek So]] from McGill was the top scorer. [[Michigan State]] finished second, after [[Colonel By]] forfeited a tiebreaker because the tournament was running late due to every game room being on a different floor with the elevator being the only accessible mode of transportation.
