Well it appears my inclusion of a clause specifying that we might not 
hold the tournament has done more harm than good, giving the 
impression that I was going to cancel at any time.  I can now safely 
say that--barring multiple teams canceling--I will no longer worry 
about having to cancel.  In short, I feel the field is sufficient.  

I do have to apologize to everyone for leaving something out of the 
original announcement, eligibility.  It was my intention to run this 
as an open tournament.  As such, masters and chimera teams would be 
welcome.  I do intend to run the tournament this way, but I 
understand that my previous omission can be construed as some sort 
of 'foul play.'  If for some reason those teams that are signed up 
for our mirror are adversely affected by the open status of the event 
(i. e. you can't get funding if it isn't student-only) please contact 
me (pwtomlinson at msn dot com) ASAP.  

Current Field:
House (2 teams)
Carleton College (2-3 teams)
University of Tulsa (1 team)
Grinnell College (2 teams)

$10 discount per working buzzer system

To register please email Paul Tomlinson (pwtomlinson at msn dot com)

questions, comments, or concerns.
