World As It Is tossup mirror - Friday 7/9/21

Post by Mike Bentley »

Hi, I'm going to attempt an abridged mirror of The World As It Is before I release the packets. The tournament will be on Friday 7/9/21 starting at 7:00 PM EDT. It will be tossup-only with teams of 4. Entry fee is $10 per person. Estimate is somewhere between 6 and 8 packets. If there's more interest I'll organize something for the remaining packets the next week.

Sign-up below. If we don't get 4 teams signed up by 7/3 I will cancel:

Hoping to get at least a few more people signed up for this by this weekend to ensure the event happens.

Looks like we now have enough people to guarantee the tournament will happen.

I'm going to close sign-ups tonight. If we don't have anyone else sign up, I'm going to assign the free agents to the existing 4 teams (with some teams ending up with 5 people).

Registration is now closed. I've assigned free agents to teams. Will send out a logistics mail soon.

We could use a few more staffers. Let me know if you're interested. Will pay $20.
