CMST at Michigan (NOT HAPPENING, see thread)
Posted: Wed Nov 22, 2017 6:50 pm
The University of Michigan is pleased to announce that we will be hosting Cal's Mid-Spring Tournament, an open tournament which is intended to be nationals-minus in difficulty, on March 17, 2018. We also plan on hosting three or four side events that weekend. As is usual for our tournaments, it will be held in Mason Hall, and will begin at 9AM, with registration beginning at 8:15 AM. The tournament will likely be directed by one or both of me and Collin Parks.
Fees
$120 base fee per team
$5 discount per functional buzzer system
$15 discount per approved, competent staffer
$10 discount per 200 miles travelled one-way to the tournament
Registration
Please fill out this form in order to register for the tournament. Emailing me or Collin to register will result in your being told to fill out the form.
Side Events
We plan to play Will Nediger's Scattergories 2 on Saturday evening. On Sunday, we plan to hold either two or three side events. If you would like to suggest side events to be played then, or would like us to run your side event, PM or email me. Once we've determined what we're running on Sunday (hopefully within the next couple weeks or so), we'll open up a signup spreadsheet for side events.
Miscellaneous
Many of you had a negative experience at our EFT mirror due to our failure to provide enough competent staff, so we would like to make it clear that we will not consider playing house teams until we know we have two staffers for each room, including at least one competent moderator per room.
We will not be providing meals (except to staffers), but there is a plethora of excellent food-serving establishments close by to Mason Hall.
We hope to see you all in Ann Arbor in March for a great weekend of quizbowl!
