2022 ARCADIA @ McMaster (11/26/2022)

Post by Oganesson »

I am pleased to announce that McMaster University will be hosting the Canadian circuit mirror of ARCADIA on Saturday, November 26, 2022. I, Adrian Wong, will be the tournament director. I may be reached by email at [email protected].

Logistics:
This mirror will be held in person on the 2nd floor of the McMaster University Student Centre, and will be supported by a Discord server through which all announcements and the schedule will be posted. The opening meeting will take place at 8:45 am EST, and gameplay will begin at 9:00 am EST. We are hoping for gameplay to end at around 6:00 pm EST, after which a closing meeting will take place, followed by finals if needed.

Registration:
This tournament is open to all collegiate teams, although preference will be given to teams currently belonging to the Canadian circuit. Please note that the field size is capped to 8 teams. If you are interested in sending a team to this mirror, please fill out this Google Form. Registration will close on Thursday, November 24, 2022, at 11:59 pm EST.

Fees and Payments:
  • CA$120 baseline fee per team
  • CA$10 discount for each set of buzzers provided by a team
  • CA$15 discount for each moderator provided by a team (must have a functioning computer and internet connection)
  • CA$20 discount per team from schools that are new to quizbowl (schools that did not play a regular-difficulty quizbowl tournament before September 1, 2021)
All Canadian teams will, by default, pay by e-transfer. Instructions for e-transfer will be given out following the tournament. If you are not from a Canadian school or wish to pay via an alternative method, please indicate your preferred mode of payment in the Google Form above.

Code of Conduct:
McMaster is dedicated to ensuring a fair and respectful playing environment for all tournament participants. Consequently, all players and staff at this tournament must abide by the 2021 WORKSHOP Code of Conduct.
