Greetings,
First of all, I just wanted to remind everyone that the no penalty
packet submission deadline for the ACF Fall tournaments in coming up
on October 4. Also, there has been some confusion on the part of a
number of teams concerning which teams are required to submit
packets. As was stated in my original tournament announcement, the
following teams are exempt from the packet writing requirement: 1) C
teams, D teams, etc., 2) teams composed entirely of players in their
first or second year of intercollegiate quizbowl experience, 3) teams
from schools which have not participated in an official ACF event in
the past two seasons. Also, keep in mind that should you feel your
team lives up to the spirit of these exemptions without actually
meeting any of these conditions, you can petition me for a special
exemption. I hope this helps to clear up any questions teams may be
having concerning this. As always, you can contact me at ksmcke0 at
hotmail dot com should you have any questions.
Thanks,
Kelly
