I don't really think there's a problem here - we're running two different types of tournaments that draw two different sets of teams. We informed NAQT of our intended host date in May, and while I can't confirm this, I can only assume it's been listed on their website since that time. Not to mention that we've been running Rollapalooza on the third weekend of October since its incarnation several years ago.
