The set has twelve rounds of 20/20 and two tiebreaker tossups at the end of each round. The set follows the following distribution per round:

Just sent Betsy an e-mail to find out what is up

Just spoke with Betsy from Raleigh Charter, and when setting up the LIST mirror, she had forgotten that she had already setup a mirror of FKT with me. They will be using the LIST set that day.
