Does this mean the set will be posted pretty soon after the event? I'm trying to plan on what questions to use for some summer practices.

The writing of this set (20 packets of 23/21 each) is now entirely complete.

Editing/proofreading/polishing will continue to improve the questions until the week of the tournament.

The tournament will be a 15-game full round-robin among the 16 teams, followed by ACF-style finals of up to two games. Ties for entrance into the finals will be played off, as will ties for lower spots.

On Saturday, teams should check in at Room 101 of Buttrick Hall between 8:00 and 8:30. A brief opening presentation will follow. Round 1 may start as early as 8:45, so don't be late.

We will run 12 rounds, with a lunch break midway through, on Saturday. The final three scheduled games will take place starting at 8:30 on Sunday morning, followed by the tiebreakers and finals.

We expect to end the tournament no later than 1:00 PM on Sunday.

What teams are actually showing up to this, since it appears Maryland isn't coming? Are all the others?

Don't gently and lovingly caress this up. Also, you better include near-live stats.
