Buffalo is interested in coming, we'll probably be bringing 2-3 teams, and 1 buzzer.

Case is tentatively interested with one team, pending our ability to submit an ACF Fall packet on time (in which case we would hit the MOO mirror at Michigan and attend your mirror of ACF Fall). I'll have a better idea by the end of the month.

[MathMusic]

Buffalo is down to only 1 team. We will be bringing 1 buzzer set.

[swwFCqb]

We will forego this tournament is favor of Michigan's tournament this weekend.

[Bartleby]

Western will be sending one team to this tournament.

Need moderators?

[Tom007]

Guelph will be attending with at least one, and possibly more, teams.

[alexander]

Hey Aaron, we could always use another moderator, or you could play if you want, since it's an open tournament.

[adosreme]

Is it open? In that case, I'd definitely like to play considering the general lack of open academic tournaments. But in the end, either is fine with me.

[mhyee]

I'll be attending this, and I'm looking for a team.

[Senator_Jay]

I'm attending, and will likely require some teammates.

[mhyee]

Scratch my last comment. Just caught a cold so I can't attend...

[alexander]

Just another heads up that the tournament will be on the second floor of the Student Center, not MDCL as with past tournaments.

We will be looking to start around 9:30, so please show up for 9 or so.

[Tom007]

Guelph will in fact have only one team for both this and VCU Trash on Sunday.

[alexander]

Thank you to all those who attended our mirror!

Congratulations to a combined team of Mac Alum/current students who cleared the field with a 9-0 record to win.
