Kyle Haddad-Fonda served as chief editor for both tournaments and as tournament director for the first; Dennis Sun was tournament director for the second.

Results
'*The 2006 edition featured Kyle Haddad-Fonda and "former State College standout John Lesieutre" "locked in one of the competition rooms while the tournament continued around us. After an hour, two maintenance guys busted down the emergency exit (which had been painted shut - some emergency exit!) to get us out." [1]
'**LASA A and LASA B opted to hold the final in Austin so that they could go to the symphony while in Cambridge. [2]
