Club Quiz Bowl at Central Michigan University is pleased to announce our first annual fall high school tournament, the C.W. Thornthwaite Memorial Tournament, will be held at the Mount Pleasant campus on Saturday, November 10, 2012.
Rounds will be untimed and consist of 20 toss-ups and the requisite number of bonuses, with packets written in-house using a distribution somewhat similar to that of ACF. The exact tournament format will depend upon the final field size, but all teams should expect to play at least 8-9 games. The field is tentatively capped at 24 teams.
Fees are as follows:
First team: $50
Each additional team: $40
Working buzzer system: -$10
Competent moderator: -$10
Travel discount (over 100 miles one way per Google Maps): -$10
Minimum per team: $30
Payment should be made on the morning of the tournament; if you need some sort of alternate arrangement, please let us know and we can try to work something out.
