Here it is, just as I promised. The website is not updated yet, but it should be very shortly as well: The Swarthmore College Bowl Team is glad to formally announce our annual fall junior bird tournament, SNEWT VII, which will be held on Saturday, November 16th, 2002 at Swarthmore College (Kohlberg Hall) in Swarthmore, PA. The format will be mod. ACF; packet submission; each team is required to submit a packet except in special cases approved by the tournament director. Email Chris White at cwhite2_at_... to register. All freshmen and sophomore undergraduates are eligible to compete in SNEWT. The base fee for a school's first team is $85; this includes breakfast and pizza for lunch. Extra teams are $60, and the mimimum fee for any team is $40. Discounts/penalties are as follows: - $10 for an experienced moderator - $10 for a working buzzer + $10 for an extra pizza (remember, each team already gets one) + $35 for no-shows (except in case of emergencies) Packet deadlines are as follows: - $20 if submitted by noon, Monday September 30 2002 - $10 if submitted by noon, Wednesday October 9 2002 - $0 if submitted by noon, Wednesday October 30 2002 + $10 if submitted by noon, Wednesday November 6 2002 + $20 if submitted by noon, Wednesday November 13 2002 + $30 for anything submitted later; or no packet at all. Packet distribution should be approximately as follows; the amount of tossups and boni in specific areas should be equal. The questions should be ACF-style, but less difficult, as this is a junior bird.
