ACF Regionals 2006 Announcement and Call for Hosts

ACF Regionals 2006 will be held on the weekend of February 4th, 2006
at various locations to be announced. I, Mike Sorice, will serve as
chief editor. I will be assisted by Matt Lafer, Chris Romero, and
possibly others. I can be contacted at msorice(at)uiuc.edu, Matt at
goatsong(at)gmail.com, and Chris at romeroc(at)gmail.com.

Parties interested in hosting a regional should contact Chris at their
earliest convenience. In particular, we would like one host in each of
the following traditional regions:
Lower Midwest
Mid-Atlantic
Northeast
Southeast
Upper Midwest
West
We are certainly willing to create further sites (Northwest, Canada,
etc.) if demand for them exists. Please feel free to contact Chris
with proposals to host in or requests for sites in other regions.

All A and B teams from schools that fielded a team for ACF Regionals
2004 or 2005 are required to submit acceptable packets of questions
pursuant to the distribution and guidelines for this tournament. If
any team wishes to compete without submitting a packet, they may do so
at the cost of a $40 penalty, with our permission. Teams wishing
exercise this option must contact me no later than January 13th.

Packet deadlines and accompanying fee adjustments are as follows:
December 23rd: -$30
January 6th: -$20
January 13th: +$0
January 20th: +$20

The broad distribution is the same as last year's and is as
follows:
Literature 5/5
History 5/5
Science 5/5
Religion/Myth/Philosophy 3/3
Fine Arts 3/3
Geography/Social Sciences 2/2
More Science, Lit, or History 2/2
Your Choice 1/1
A more specific subdistribution and formatting guidelines will be
posted shortly, but these will not significantly deviate from last
year's. In addition to following the distribution,
subdistribution,
and formatting guidelines, questions must be written in accordance
with Subash's guidelines, available at
http://www.dpo.uab.edu/~paik/acf/subash.html. ACF reserves the right
to reject as unacceptable any packet that does not follow any of these
stipulations. If you have questions as to the fitness of a proposed
question or regarding the distribution or other question issues,
please contact me. Please send completed packets to Matt.
