Hello,

Now that classes are winding down, I now have some time to announce 
more about the upcoming NAQT 4-yr Sectionals at UGA on Feb 7, 2004.

I-FORMAT: As of press time,the tournament will consist of a round 
robin followed by a playoff system. Whether or not there will be 
divisions within DI and DII will be determined by how many teams show 
interest in playing.

II- FEES: The fees are as follows:
       **Please note that each school is limited to three teams in 
any combination of DI and DII teams**
        - Base fee: $120
        - 2nd Team: +$50
        - 3rd Team: +$40
Discounts:
        - Buzzers: -$5 for each (limit two)
        - Reader (for at least the round robin): -$5
        - Clock: -$5 (UGA has at least six but we will need more)

Min. Fees: One Team: $100
           Two Teams:$150 (which comes to $75 per team)
           Three Teams: $200 (which comes to about $66 per team)
        - Clocks: -$5 (UGA has six but we will need more)

III- Location: As of right, we're hoping to host the tournament in 
our brand new, state of the art Student Learning Center, located in 
the heart of the campus just yards from the Tate Student Center and 
Sanford Stadium (for those who came to the Paul C Parker tournament, 
youve been in the building). If that fails, it probably will be the 
Journalism Building. 

HOTEL: The official hotel for the NAQT SE Sectionals is the Holiday 
Inn Athens, located at the corner of Broad and Lumpkin Streets (and 
also right across from the downtown district). You need to get your 
hotel rooms by January 19, 2004. You may call the Athens Holiday Inn 
direct at 706-549-4433 or use the Toll Free line at 1 800 HOLIDAY. 
When you do reserve, please refer to the code "UCB" to get the UGA 
College Bowl Discount. The rooms are Two double beds, non-smoking in 
the Courtyard area. We have 30 rooms available and after January 19, 
any rooms not taken will go back to the general public.

VOLUNTEERS (and we're NOT talkin' the Tennessee kind...Go Vols!): If 
you live in the Atlanta area and would like to help out, I would be 
ever so grateful. As for a bribe, wemay either buy you lunch or treat 
you to dinner at Johnny Carino's or another nice restaurant. Again, 
if you're interested, let me know.

TEAMS- As of right now, this is all I have. Im sure the usual 
suspects will step forward in due time:

UGA (2 Division II teams)
Wofford (Division unknown)

THE MAN IN CHARGE: By some quirk of fate, the man running this circus 
is yours truly, Robin Richards. He can be contacted by the following 
email: UGAQuizdogs at bellsouth.net. After the tournament, he may 
move into a nice soft room in Milledgeville :)

If you need anything, please let me know.
