Johns Hopkins Trash Tournament

This message was originally sent by Tournament
Director Jeffrey Liao to the qb list. However, it has
bounced back several times. The only thing I will add is
that I believe a packet swap (with Charlie Steinhice's
trash tournament) is being arranged, so there should be
a sufficient number of packets to hold 10-12
rounds. For any questions about the tournament, please
e-mail Jeffrey (LiaoZY_at_...), except for packet
submission questions, which should go to Jon So
(jonso_at_...).

Thanks,
Adam Fine
