META online

Post by Bhagwan Shammbhagwan »

There will likely be an online mirror of META. Like the HSNCT mirror, it will likely be capped at 8 teams and run with the same format. The fee will be $10 per player.

I would also like to gauge interest and pick dates using this post. Please fill this out if you are interested in playing. Thanks!

Based on the poll, it seems like most people would like to play this on July 13th.

I’ve set up a spreadsheet where you can create your teams. The mirror fee will be $10 per player, and I’ll likely cap the field at 8 teams (unless there is more interest).

I don't think I can edit the spreadsheet.

I don't think I'm able to edit it either.

By the way, is the plan for this to be played on Discord? Or some other platform?

Thanks for organizing/running it!

Looks like this happened again! The link should now work.

This will be run over Discord, but I'm not sure what the exact start time will be as of yet.

The tournament will start at 10:00 in the morning. We'll be running 8 rounds of questions, so it shouldn't take that long to finish.

With a week left, there are still four team spots open until the field is maximized. If you are interested and cannot make an in-person mirror (as of now, NorCal is the only one left), please sign up!
