July 31: Singles at UMD
July 31: Singles at UMD
Yes, on Saturday, July 31 at the University of Maryland in College Park, there will be a Summer Singles Tournament. We will be using the questions from ACF Fall 2003.
Anyone who played on a local A-team—or powerhouse B-team—during the past academic year is invited to play. Other players may register and will be admitted provided that there is room. (I'm sorry: I would make the tournament open, but space is an issue).
The way it looks now, the tournament will be free. However, if it turns out that we have to pay for our rooms, or if people want prizes, there might be a small fee.
Readers and buzzer systems would be nice to have. Talk to me if you can provide.
Registering and volunteer your services by e-mailing me at [email protected]. Do so even if you already expressed interest. Please include your name and your team in the message.

We sold our soul for quiz and bowl
Recent grauduates are certainly elegible; I will most likely be playing. Mike, I heard from your brother, but I am still waiting for Alex to contact me about who else from TJ is coming.
Besides the TJ contingent—which I've heard numbers 5 or 6—here is a list of people who will be there. I am also waiting to hear from Eleanor Roosevelt folks.
Michael (Blake)
Michael (Gonzaga)
Seth (RM)
Tobin (RM)
Daniel (RM)
Humza (RM)
Zack (WJ)
David (GDS)
Best case scenario, we will have 16 players exactly, and will be able to run a double-elimination tournament after some prelim seeding.
I am still working out the when and where. Think about getting to UMD around 9:15.

We stand at 15 people (one less than ideal) with the waitlist empty. The dramatis personae:
Michael B (Blake)
Michael K (Gonzaga)
Seth (RM)
Tobin (RM)
Daniel B (RM)
Humza (RM)
Barry (RM)
David (GDS)
Zack (WJ)
Mike S (TJ)
Dan W (TJ)
Mike W (TJ)
Alex L (TJ)
Wil K (TJ)
Daniel R (ER)
The field is not only dominated by people from RM and TJ, but it is also dominated by people named Michael or Daniel (the TD is also named Daniel).

Congratulations to Michael Braun of Blake High School, for winning the Summer Singles tournament today. He defeated Dan Wright of Thomas Jefferson to win the double elimination playoffs.
I will go into more details tomorrow, after I get some rest, but I would like to thank our volunteers: Sharon Wong from RM, my dad, Mr. Wright, and above all, Mr. Dan Goff, the tournament director, without whom we wouldn't have been able to do a dang thing. I'd like to think everyone at ACF for letting us use the questions, especially Kelly. Finally, thanks to the individuals for coming to play on a beautiful summer's day.
