John Lawrence will be the head editor. Other category editors are Will Alston, Matt Bollinger, Emmett Laurie, Evan Lynch, and Eric Mukherjee. Fred Morlan will be the tournament director.

Re: IQBT Undergraduate Championship - March 4, 2023
Posting in this thread since I think my questions are more specifically about this tournament. Can you clarify what this means? Given Em said “a qualifier,” is this a NSC/HSNCT model where teams can qualify via multiple pre-approved tournaments that are each independently run, and where sets/mirrors can apply to be approved as qualifiers? Or an ACF/ICT model where there’s one tournament per year you play to qualify?meebles127 wrote: ↑Thu May 12, 2022 1:29 pm MRNA II will serve as a qualifier for the IQBT Undergraduate Championship. More details about the IQBT Undergraduate Championship can be found here.
Additionally, is MRNA 2, currently slated for mirrors starting mid-February 2023, being moved up so that teams have a clear idea on whether they’ve qualified further ahead of the planned March 4 IQBT nats date?

Re: IQBT Undergraduate Championship - Online - March 4, 2023
In the words of the forum smilies,
How is this at all worth it for an online tournament? I understand that the set writers and staff need to be compensated, but this seems like a *steep* price for most clubs to pay to send four people to a tournament that's online with an unspecified number of guaranteed games.

2) Consider how many teams we can reasonably expect to play this question set and maintain a reasonable guarantee of continued question security
3) Consider the price of paying top quality staff (ACF Nats/ICT level) a fair wage for their time
4) Consider that IQBT doesn't have tournaments it can use to subsidize this one, like ACF does

Re: IQBT Undergraduate Championship - Online - March 4, 2023
If I'm reading this right...
Someone pursuing their bachelor's degree at a four-year institution would be ineligible if they had already earned an Associate's from a two-year institution, but someone who just earned credit-hours at that same institution without earning their Associate's remains eligible?

I'm setting the official registration deadline for the Undergraduate Championship as January 23, 2023. At that point, non-registrations will be treated as declines for invitations, and subsequent teams will be invited after that.

Re: IQBT Undergraduate Championship - Online - March 4-5, 2023
Here are the tournament schedules we have planned for fields of 30 and 32 teams.
30 teams:
We will start with three preliminary round robins of ten teams. We will then regroup into five playoff groups of six (the top two of each preliminary group will be placed into one playoff group, 3rd & 4th from each preliminary group will be placed into another playoff group, etc.) for a playoff round robin with one carryover game. We will then have advantaged finals.
We will not use paper tiebreakers with this format.
32 teams:
We will start with four preliminary rounds robins of eight teams. We will then regroup into four playoff groups of eight (the top two from the preliminary groups into one playoff group, etc.) with 1 carryover game. We will then have advantaged finals.
We will also not use paper tiebreakers with this format.

Stand by teams will be contacted on short notice - under 48 hours before the start of the tournament - to fill open spots with no entry feel. Waitlist teams take priority over stand by teams for entering the field.

I have lost power after bad wind storms in the area. I have contingency plans in place, so it should not delay the tournament, but it is going to keep me from emailing out the schedule file for a couple of hours.
If you are a staffer and have somehow not received information about the tournament, please email [email protected].
Similarly, if you are part of a team playing tomorrow and do not have information about the tournament, check with the person who signed your team up and their email. If you still haven’t received anything, email me at the same address.

Alberta had to withdraw from the tournament, so the 25th-30th place bracket has been reworked. The two teams that are on bye are invited to play scrimmage matches in room AAA.
