Seeking Mirrors for Mattsbuzzers / Collaborators Wanted
Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2013 12:45 pm
Hey everyone,
Every December in Ohio right before schools usually get off for Christmas break, we run a trash tournament for local teams at 2 or 3 different sites. It has turned into one of the biggest tournaments in Ohio – the kids and coaches love it and we have a great time putting it on and running it. Last year, Donald Taylor mirrored the set as a side tournament after one of the Illinois tournaments (Loyola Ultima I believe?) with proceeds going to mattsbuzzers.com.
This year, I was asked to produce a second trash set for a March tournament to be held at Case Western Reserve to help their team financially, since the entire club is brand new, leadership and membership included. I agreed to produce the set for them, with the help of some of my regular co-writers, but I’m seeking some collaboration on the set from anyone that wants to help out. Whole packets are preferred, but we will take anything we can get.
I’m also looking for mirror sites willing to run it and donate the proceeds to mattsbuzzers. The set will be provided free, and I assume most sites would probably play it as a tossup-only side tournament after another academic event, which would be great if it didn’t take away from that academic event. If mirror sites want to run it as a separate tournament, they can do that as well, as long as they donate the proceeds.
I don’t frequent this board very much anymore, so I probably won't read responses here. However, if you are interested in helping write or would want to mirror the set for mattsbuzzers, please shoot me an email at bk31883 <at> gmail <dot> com.
I look forward to hearing from potential collaborators and mirror sites.
