Arcadia Quiz Bowl is pleased to announce:
Arcadia Carnal Embrace VI
LOCATION: Arcadia High School, 180 Campus Dr., Arcadia CA 91007. The games will be held in the portable buildings at the west end of campus.
DATE: The tournament will be held on Monday, February 20, 2012 (President's Day). Check-in begins at 8:00 am, and first round should begin around 9 am. Schedules will be distributed at check-in.
FORMAT: The tournament will be using NAQT IS-111. The tournament will adhere to Official NAQT Rules. Each round will be run as untimed, 10-question halves, with a preliminary round robin followed by reseeding based on results from the round robin phase. Seedings in the individual sub-brackets will be determined by the overall win-loss record.
Ties for reseedings will be resolved based on points per bonus, followed by points per game.
As stated in the NAQT HSNCT (High School National Championship Tournament) qualification rules, the top 15% of the field will qualify for the HSNCT held in Atlanta, Georgia. We are also provisionally a platinum-certified qualifier for the PACE NSC at Wash. U in St. Louis
ELIGIBILITY: All high school students are welcome to attend.
PRICING STRUCTURE:
Base fee = $80 for one team, $70 per team after the first
-$5 for each fully-functional buzzer system (must have at least four working buzzers on both sides)
-$10 for traveling distances over 100 miles, according to Google Maps
-$10 moderator discount (this is going to be tentative, depending on the field)
-$20 for each team that has not competed in an NAQT tournament in the past 2 years.
Minimum fee = $60/team
