ANNOUNCEMENT: Iowa State Fall Tournament, 25 October 2003

The Iowa State University Academic Quiz Club is pleased to announce 
that:

Iowa State Fall Tournament II: Play Through the Pain

will be held on 25 October 2003 on the beautiful campus of Iowa 
State University in picturesque Ames, Iowa.

Packet submission will NOT be required; we are writing this 
tournament in-house.  We also will be running this tournament as an 
open event; masters teams and bastard teams will be allowed to 
compete.  We would like to run two divisions so that novice teams 
compete against other novice teams, but that decision will be made 
after we know how many teams will be attending.

The questions will be of a modified-ACF distribution and style, with 
difficulty level falling between ACF Fall and ACF Regionals.

Fees:
Base Fee: $100 per team
Base Fee for Novice Teams (composed entirely of 1st and 2nd year 
players): $50 per team

Buzzer: $10 discount
Competent Game Official (as determined by us): $30 discount
Travel of over 500 miles: $15 discount
Travel of over 700 miles: You play free.


We are looking for freelance packet authors to contribute (24/24) in 
exchange for the entire set.  We are also looking for good science 
writers to contribute good science questions; (15/15) science can 
also be traded for the entire set.


If you are interested in writing for us, please contact editor/chief 
writer Matt Cvijanovich, at (bigc at iastate dot edu).

If you'd like to register for the tournament or ask any questions, 
please contact tournament director Michael Falk, at (mjf27 at 
iastate dot edu).
