This is an announcement that Truman State University in Kirksville,
MO will definitely host their second annual invitational tournament
(titled: Brainal Leakage: The Larry Iles Memorial Tournament) on
January 31, 2004. For those of you keeping track, this is one week
after Penn Bowl and one week before NAQT Sectionals.
As stated before in my last message
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/quizbowl/message/13146), we are
seeking mirror sites at least 800 miles away from our campus.
Pricing is scheduled to be $80 base or less, and questions will be
NAQT-style, with powers (we like powers!). Difficulty level is
expected to be slightly more difficult than NAQT Sectionals.
If you are interested in either attending or mirroring our
tournament, please contact me at c1881 (at) truman (dot) edu. This
is especially critical for any possible mirrors, so that we can
prepare our rounds earlier (e.g. near the middle of November),
giving mirrors the chance to read/edit our packets before the actual
tourney date approaches.
More details will be posted regarding pricing, starting time, etc.
as the actual date approaches.
