QQBC Duos Open

Post by jenzhou33 »

The QQBC Staff is pleased to announce QQBC Duos Open. Our tournament will be held on Friday, July 30th at 4:00 PM Eastern on Discord.

Eligibility:
This tournament is strictly a duos tournament. You may sign up as a free agent if you don’t have a partner and contact other free agents to form a duo.
Players from the Class of 2021 and younger are eligible to play.

Format:
We expect to cap field size at 12 teams.
The rules/format of the tournament are subject to change depending on how large the field is.
We are planning to keep individual stats as well as category stats.

Cost and Registration:
The cost will be $5 per team. Payment information will be sent through email.

Rules:
We will be using the QQBC 2021 Housewrite, an HS Regs level question set (meant to mirror NAQT IS-level difficulty). The set follows the NAQT distribution, which can be found here: https://www.naqt.com/hs/distribution.jsp

The set was written for the 2021 QQBC Summer Camp Mega Tournament. As a result, there are only 6 rounds, and there may be some overlapping content between the first half and second half of the tournament.

Rounds are 20/20 with one tiebreaker tossup if needed. There will be powers (15) and negs (-5). We will not use bouncebacks. Teams should expect to have camera and mic capabilities during play. Players should have at least one hand in view of the camera during the duration of the round.

Cheating & Misconduct
Everyone involved in the tournament should be sure to adhere to these basic rules: http://www.pace-nsc.org/nsc-code-of-conduct/
In addition, there will be a form to report any form of misconduct.
Cameras will be required to be on during play. Cheating will not be tolerated.

If you have any questions please post here or email [email protected]. Please include "QQBC Open" in the subject.

Thank you and hope to see you at the tournament!
