This list reflects all teams qualifying at tournaments that have been officially certified, the most recent of which took place on 10/23/2010. It also notes their level of certification and thus the date at which they may begin to register for the NSC. The list of affiliated tournaments and qualified teams by state available on the PACE website will also be updated throughout the week. PACE apologizes for the delay in posting this information, and I will continue to add teams to this list as soon as more tournaments are certified. Thank you for your patience, and please feel free to let me know if I have made a mistake in transcribing the name of your team or tournament. I can be reached at sangelo147 AT gmail DOT com.

A man of that calibre is an ornament to any Parliament.

As far as I am aware, neither of the TDs asked for affiliation, which is a mighty shame, as Lisgar is actually considering going to PACE NSC this year.

PACE changed their policy last year so that hosts have to opt-out of consideration. There is no need to ask now, so the OQT will get listed in due time (it did last year with no action on Ottawa's part).

Also, there's issues in the past with attempts like that, such as Harvard's budget pretty much being murdered when hs teams didn't opt into the rooms at the hotel for HFT.

My recollection is that the Harvard near-disaster resulted from a "if they're not booked, booker pays" model of room-block reserving (whereas usually people go with the less punishing "if they're not booked by a certain date, often 3-4 weeks before the event, they're released and no discount for you" model). That said, I totally agree with Fred, for the other reasons he's mentioned, about the low utility of reserving blocks of rooms.

I noticed that you do not have Cheshire listed as a PACE qualifier from Connecticut, but Cheshire finished 4th at Yale's FAcT on October 23rd, earning the 4th and final qualifying spot for FAcT. I am sure the TD from Yale---I think it is John Lawrence---can confirm this, and I am certain you would want to correct this oversight.
And a question if I might: Some of the best teams in the U.S. qualified at Harvard's Fall Tournament, surely a Platinum calibre tournament allowing its qualifiers immediate registration for the NSC, but since this version of the the HFT has not yet been officially certified, at least one, and perhaps more of those teams, including your defending Champion, are not yet eligible to register. Any idea when this will be rectified?

George was talking to me about a week ago about who the top eight were (which I figured out for him) so I imagine that if HFT hasn't been officially certified yet, it will be quite soon.

How will the playoff format change in light of this expansion?

Is it possible that State College could register anyway, since we are definitely one of the teams that qualified at HFT?
