Hi, everybody:

I know it's still a few months before UCI Open V, but I thought I 
should repost the original invitation.  Please e-mail me 
(williechen7_at_...) if you are interested.  This tournament is 
open to anyone who have not attended the 2005 NAQT High School 
nationals.

Willie

************************************************************

This is the official announcement for UCI Open V, to take place on
Saturday July 9, 2005. We will be using the packets from NAQT High
School nationals. Here are the details:

1. Qualification
This is an open tournament, meaning anybody can play as long as they
have not heard the question set at NAQT nationals in Chicago. A team
can consist of one to six players, but only four people can play at 
the same time.

2. Fee Structure
The base fee for this tournament is $100, with the following
discounts:
Buzzers (-$5)
Long distance (100+ miles) (-$10)
Second team from the same school/institution (-$10)
Experienced Moderators (-$40)
No clock discount (rounds are not timed)
Minimum fee per team: $60
Please make a check out to College Bowl Club--ASUCI and bring it to
the tournament. There will be a late fee of $10 if the team pays
after the tournament. Cash payment is also accepted for this event.

3. Prizes and Awards
To be determined, but most likely books and/or trophies

4. Location and Time
UC Irvine campus, Humanities Hall (meet in Room 178)
Saturday, July 9, 2005, 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM

5. Contact Information
Willie Chen, Tournament Director (williechen7_at_...)
Andrea Wong, College Bowl Club President (andrea.wywong_at_...)

6. Registration
Please register by June 30th, 2005 by e-mailing either Willie or
Andrea. Please e-mail us your team name and the names of all the
team members. Creative names, of course, are encouraged.

7. Statistics
Currently, we do not have the software for keeping live/running
stats. If you can share that information with us, please e-mail
Willie. Otherwise, official tournament statistics will be available
within one week after the tournament.

8. Parking and Transporation
Parking is $7 all day. Please buy a permit from any of the parking
structures and drive up to Parking Lot 7 (see www.uci.edu for a
campus map) and park in the unmarked stalls. Lot 7 is extremely
close to Humanities Hall.

9. Hotels, etc.
While there are numerous hotels in the city of Irvine, I do not
recommend staying in any of them because they are quite costly.
Nearby cities like Costa Mesa and Santa Ana might offer cheaper
alternatives.

Hope to hear from you soon!
