Scarsdale Tournament -1/5/13- in Scarsdale, NY
Scarsdale Tournament -1/5/13- in Scarsdale, NY
Scarsdale High School in Westchester, NY is hosting a tournament on 1/5/13.
Since Westchester has been solidly for a while, we thought it would be nice to have some real quizbowl in the area.
We are going to be using NAQT set 123-A
Guaranteed 8 rounds, Cap at 24ish teams for now (but subject to flexibility)
Fees are...
$75 for the first team
$60 for each additional team
Discounts of $15 for each moderator and $10 for each buzzer set
Minimum fee $40
(P.S. Dear Westchester teams, I sent around an email already to Westchester quizbowl advisers but I have not received replies, could you possibly see if you/your teachers have received them?)
Register to [email protected]
or in thread below
I hope you consider coming!
Sincerely,
Cindy

Re: Scarsdale Tournament -1/5/13- in Scarsdale, NY
Hi, this is scarsdale again as well.
To make fees fair for everyone, we might have to tell/ask each team how many buzzer sets to bring, because we currently have more than enough for the field.
Also, this is Scarsdale's first time hosting a tournament so large, so please bear with us and forgive us for mistakes!

Could you put another Irvington team in? I'm feeling optimistic. Also we might have a moderator and there's like a 1% chance we'll have 2 moderators.

Hi, Scarsdale here.
So Scarsdale is a pretty new team and this is our first time hosting our own invitational.
Therefore, the 45ish teams already signed up is pretty much as many or more than we can deal with. At this time we'd like to taper off registrations. Feel free to continue to express interest, but we don't want more teams than we can effectively deal with.
So yeah, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I really look forward to this tournament.

Count me in as a supporter of good quizbowl in Westchester County. If you need some help moderating, I'd be happy to drive down from Ithaca that day to help you guys out...it'll be my second NYC Metro area tournament of the year after Seton Hall's Pirate Open. Drop me an e-mail at scottblish at gmail dot com if you're interested in the extra help. I will probably know about two weeks before the tournament actually occurs whether I'll have the day free (four adopted kids can sometimes cause weekend time congestion on short notice), but the holidays are sufficiently finished enough by then where I doubt I'll have trouble getting away for a day.

Ranney would like to express interest with one team for now, but if it will help you expand, we can bring more teams or possibly a moderator. Is the field pretty much closed, or is it likely that it will expand a bit more?

For now, we have to put you on the waitlist. We will most likely be able to increase the field size enough that you can get at least 2 teams for the tournament.

Irvington 2 2 1
Valley Stream 4 3 0
Mountain Lakes 3 1 0
Saint Joes 2 1 1
Kellenberg 4 3 2
Ardsley 1 1 1
Georgetown Day 1 0 0
High Tech 4 1 0
Ridgewood 1 2 0

Re: Scarsdale Tournament -1/5/13- in Scarsdale, NY
Cindy,
Unfortunately Saint Joe's of Metuchen must withdraw from the field. It turns out that we have a schedule conflict with the Model UN Conference in Hershey, Pennsylvania that weekend and my players just seemed to notice this. Since most of my players will be in Pa. that weekend, withdrawal is a necessity. The silver lining, I suppose, is that if you so choose you can move some teams off of your waiting list to take the 2 spots SJHS has just vacated. And I apologize if this causes any inconvenience but I thought you should know before we break for the holidays. And good luck---we wish you nothing but the best with your inaugural efforts at hosting a tournament.

With Saint Joe's leaving, we can take the first team off the waitlist.
@Ranney We would like to confirm that you can still come to our tournament. How many teams/buzzers/moderators do you plan to bring?

Ranney School is still willing and eager to attend the tournament (and bring one team), if you decide to allow two more teams to attend.

Thank you very much, we can't wait to attend the tournament.
We will bring one team, and no buzzer system. Our coach is willing to moderate, but only if he is needed.

North Babylon cannot attend the tournament, unfortunately we must drop both of our teams from the field. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

@ranney
We would really appreciate it if your coach could moderate, since we are somewhat short on moderators.

Kellenberg will have at least 3 moderators....and perhaps if really needed a 4th (no guarantees!)

Our coach said we will moderate, as long as there is a scorekeeper.
