MIT Quiz Bowl will run the eleventh Beaver Bonspiel on October 23, 2004 at
MIT. The all-day tournament will include split open and JV divisions if there
are enough interested teams. Here are some important guidelines:
Base rate: $100
Discount for bringing a JV team: -$25
Discount for multiple teams: -$5 per team
Packet deadline (normal): October 9
Packet deadline (early): October 2
Packet deadline (very early): September 25
Minimum fee per team: $20
If you send multiple teams, though, make sure that any packet written by one
team is blind to the others or else we'll add some sort of penalty to your fee.
Last year's announcement, at http://www.geocities.com/beaverbonspiel/
announcement.html, is not completely up to date but still a useful reference.
In particular, the detailed fee structure is still the same (but subtract 2 from any
date to get the correct one), and the question writing/distribution guidelines
haven't changed.
Feel free to contact me, ssivek at mit dot edu, if you have any questions about
Beaver Bonspiel. We'll fix the web site soon and keep it updated as more
information comes available, and any major updates will be posted here as
well.
