Trash Side Event at uWaterloo (27th June)

Post by Fado Alexandrino »

I am pleased to announce a trash tournament following Waterloo's NASQT mirror on SATURDAY, the 27th of June, 2015.

Questions will be coming from this and other packets written by Eliza Grames, Melanie Keating, and others. The 9 packets are tossups only and include NO sports, unless it is referencing an athlete's life outside of his or her sporting career.

The tournament is FREE and OPEN for anyone to play.

Rooms have been booked on the 4th floor of MC and MC 4059 will be serving as HQ. More info regarding staffers and (possible) player caps will be posted when available.

The format of this tournament will depend on the number of staffers and what the players themselves want (shootouts, doubles, quads, whatever)

What is the difficulty/distribution (no sports, does this mean more of something else?)?
Also, if it was played shootout, it would allow MORE WEIGHT and some rounds of this (does it have a name? does it dare speak its name?) tournament councurrently, if we're running out of time.

I'm not sure. It's pretty much what the writers like, but generally mostly music, movies, and TV.

We formed six teams, each with 4-5 players. After a round robin and 3/3 rebracket, Team 6/F defeated Team 2/B in a one-game final. Brian M. was the top scorer.
