Sunday Staff

[kn...@uci.edu]

Hi folks,

I just wanted to get a count on who would be able to come on Sunday (11/6)
to help us staff the tournament. We'd need to meet at the Student Center
around 8:30 AM to set everything up.

Kevin

[Jason Luna]

The Luna brothers will be there to staff/help.

Hello again,

This is kind of a big deal to do this by e-mail, seeing as it appears that we're not having practice tonight. Please let me know if you can show up so that I can figure out how many people can play on the house team.

The Luna brothers will be there. Marcus --- On Wed, 11/2/11, Dwight Wynne <dpw...@gmail.com> wrote:

I believe Kevin is playing with band at the basketball game and I have work (also at that game) tonight, but we will both be on the house team.  I also still have 6-7 books from our last tournament to use as prizes, let me know if we need more.

I'd like to show up, but most likely will have to miss on Sunday.

Jim.

Caltech is currently treating their appearance at this tournament like it's a quantum physics experiment or something, and UCSD is trying to find a second car to bring the rest of their 2 teams and some staffers, so these are the potential situations:

1. Caltech doesn't show up, UCSD does not find a second car (i.e. status quo): We have 11 teams, bye teams staff one room on their bye.
2. Caltech shows up, UCSD does not find a second car: we unfortunately cannibalize the house team for staffers and, depending on who shows, have either rotating one-or-two-person teams or drop to 11.
3. UCSD finds a second car of transportation: We have 11 or 12 teams, and everyone or almost everyone gets to play.

I literally may not know which of these situations is going to happen until Sunday morning, so please be flexible.

Oh, one other thing. I will take care of prize gathering, but apparently my printer takes 10 minutes to print out a single page. This means I can print schedules but will likely not be able to do anything with scoresheets.

I calculate we will need at maximum 70 scoresheets. Matt, can you take care of this or delegate it to someone else?

Thanks,

Dwight

[Matthew Johnston]

Yes I can do that, what style sheet did you want to use?  

I think I have 40 or so Naqt sheets already here actually. I am not sure, but if the student center lab is open Sunday they have a printer there we could use for programs.

Matthew

[Dwight Wynne]

Any style you can find works.

I just facebooked Auroni about carpooling with the stranded UCSD people since we are in San Diego. Marcus

Sorry for the following late updates.

1. I still don't know whether Caltech is coming.
2. We will be short somewhere between 0 and 2 buzzer systems.
3. The packets are on my flash drive. I guess that is a good thing.
4. The packets are not password-protected, meaning my strategy of "let a team on bye moderate" is not going to work. I will be working to rectify this.

What this means is that everyone is going to show up tomorrow morning and then we are going to figure out how to equitably split between people moderating and people playing.
