BARGE (Back to Answers Rewarding General Edification) was an open tournament head-edited entirely by Chris Ray during January 2012 [1]. Chris conceived of BARGE as an open with accessible answers and gettable questions for the entire collegiate audience at a difficulty between ACF Regionals and ACF Nationals; he also reserved the right to veto superteams above a given skill level.
BARGE was hosted at Maryland, Yale, Mizzou, Illinois, Bellarmine and UGA.
