Since no one has posted the West Coast results, I'll briefly state them here. 6 teams competed in the West Coast ACF Regionals at Berkeley, with 4 of those teams being house teams, one team from Stanford, and one team from CalTech. The teams played a double round-robin, after which there was a one game mini-final of sorts between teams 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and 5 and 6. The final standings were: 1. Berkeley Seth (9-1) 2. Berkeley Kenny (8-2)* 3. Berkeley Jeff (5-5) 4. Berkeley Jerry (4-6) 5. Stanford (3-7)? 6. CalTech (3-7)? Question marks are there because I don't remember the exact standings. The asterisk is because Berkeley Kenny were ineligible to win due to the presence of non-students. The top scorers, to the best of my recollection, were Jeff Hoppes, Salpi, Eric Whitman Smith, Zombie Lincoln, Kenny Easwaran, Juliana Froggatt, Maribeth Mason, Paul Lujan, and possibly others. I could be wrong here, my memory is sketchy. Zombie Lincoln also led the field in negs, with 18. Special thanks go out to Nick Meyer and Matt Bruce, who out of the generosity of their hearts came out to help moderate and provide an enjoyable tournament. Even more special thanks go out to Stanford and CalTech for not killing us over the room situation, which they would have been justified in doing. No thanks at all go out to the Berkeley Forensics Club, which caused the aforementioned room situation by reserving the entire campus. As an aside, I found this question set to be high in quality with a few niggly exceptions. Kudos to Raj Bhan for his hard work and overall excellent question set. Jerry
