NMMS 3 Available for Mirrors

[djones]

The Northmont Middle School Invitational set (NMMS 3) will be available for mirrors this year beginning on October 12th.

The set will be approximately NAQT MS difficulty. Our experienced writing team is myself, Emily Bingham, Kara Combs, and Samantha Street. I have been writing for leagues and tournaments around the state for the last decade, and Emily and Kara have extensive writing experience for OAC Regionals and State, ACE / Qwiz quiz bowl camps, and other events around Ohio. In other words, I am very confident that this will be a good set. The set is currently completely written and is being edited.

We have posted the NMMS 1 set to the archives and it should be available as soon as it is approved. We will post last year's NMMS 2 set in December after some early season mirrors of the set this year. Last year's set was mirrored at seven sites and I heard positive feedback from teams and coaches who played the set.

The distribution of the set this year is as follows:
4/4 Lit
4/4 Science
4/4 History
2/2 Fine Arts
1/1 Trash
1.5 /1.5 Geography
2.5 / 2.5 Mythology / Religion
0.5/0.5 Math
0.5/0.5 Social Science / Philosophy / Multi-Discipline

If you are interested in mirroring the set, please send me an email at [email protected]. Mirror fee is $10 per team.

Hello,
Would there be any interest in an online mirror of this set given the recent influx of online tournaments?
