ANNOUNCEMENT: Crimson Puppy Chow VI _at_ Boston U, Oct. 19

Boston University is proud to announce Crimson Puppy Chow VI: To Say 
Nothing of the Dog, a junior bird tournament to be held Saturday, 
October 19, 2002.  Though it is not certain, the tournament will 
likely be held in the College of Arts and Sciences Building, 725 
Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA.  (Directions will be made available 
shortly.)  

ELIGIBILITY

This tournament is a junior bird, open to college teams composed 
entirely of members in their first or second year of collegiate 
play.  No graduate students, no teams from multiple colleges, no high 
school teams, no trained chimpanzees -- just undergraduates in their 
first or second year of collegiate play.

FORMAT

The tournament is will be conducted using NAQT Intramural questions; 
as a result, no packet submission is required.  Most of NAQT's rules 
will be followed, with the notable exception that rounds will be 
untimed and consist of 20 (twenty) tossups (with associated 
bonuses).  If possible, we intend to run a full round robin; in any 
event, 12 games are guaranteed for all teams.

Each functioning buzzer system: -$10
Each functioning moderator/scorekeeper: -$10
