Hello, It appears that 3 schools are interested in hosting the 2008 NAQT Canadian SCT: McMaster (in Hamilton) McGill (Montreal) Carleton (Ottawa) I don't...
Regarding #2: Brock *does* plan on bidding to host TRASH Regionals again next year, mostly as a final "Look how loyal we have been to TRASH" push in a bid to...
Western would prefer a Southern Ontario site, since we have yet to make it to a tournament (usually due to transportation issues) and would very much like to...
Hi, I like the idea of splitting the two tournaments far apart geographically in order to give everyone more of an equal chance to attend at least one of them...
Ok, since no one on my team has gotten back to me yet, I can only remain vague at best. Although I originally said that McMaster would back down in favour of...
Ok, I have just gotten a response from Chantelle (our club president), and the decision is that until further notice, McMaster is withdrawing from the bid for...
Since McGill did host two years ago, I think it is only fair to support Carleton's bid if they feel they are able to pull it off. Therefore, I propose backing...
Hello everyone, I'd like to let the group know of (and offer my congratulations to) the two Canadian teams who competed at the NAQT Intercollegiate ...
Hi, While plans are being made, I may as well ask...is there a date for the VETO mirror in Toronto yet? I have a team that will probably play. Cheers, Jordan...
There will probably be a mirror in Toronto, likely a Saturday in the middle of July. Speaking of which, there's an (underused) policy available for VETO...
Well, if an objection can come from the person that organized it the last two years, I am personally not available that weekend. That being said, if I can not...
... I'd like to second this and congratulate the teams that came to the ICT for their performance as well as thank the people who weren't there but who work...

Canada Day weekend is great, I'm back in town from England that weekend and Brock should be able to make it as wells. I'd be happy to help out. Bruce...
... Let me see what I can do about that. ... NAQT has no written or unwritten rule that there shall be only one Eastern Canadian Sectional. It seems clear...

Andy can't make June 30, and Bruce can't make July 14. I surveyed likely Vancouver players and found that they're happy with either of those dates. Does...

R., I liked the little flags for Canadian teams that we used to see in NAQT ICT stat reports, but they're missing this year. :-) Also, after the discussion...

I would like to reiterate that I would happily serve as tournament editor for this year's VETO, especially if I am the only one unavailable on the June 30th...
... Hi all, I am a former School Reach enthusiast. I now go to Seneca College and am interested in trying my hand at trivia. Will there be any ongoing...

Canada Day long weekend could be more difficult for traveling (busier highways, trains, buses, hotels, etc). That weekend would not be impossible, but it...
"Five schools at one and four at the other seems (upon first glance) to fall a little bit short of our desired field sizes, but if there are new schools...
In a similar vein, would anyone be interested in a possible additional tournament in Toronto over the summer? I know that a lot of the Western team have been...
In preparation for writing and playing in VETO 2-3 months from now, I find it useful to look at what's come up in previous editions of the tournament. As you...
I can make either date, but my personal preference would be towards July 14th. Here's a suggestion that breaks with tradition, but might be worth considering...
The interest for running VETO on June 30, if I understand correctly was to accomodate some of the Toronto crowd. My preference would be June 30 for Toronto. ...
Hi everybody, Since the consensus is to hold the SCT in Eastern Ontario, we should hold another event elsewhere the province. Accordingly, UofT would like to...
... I am booking rooms for the Toronto mirror, to be held Saturday, June 30th. This year, we'll be playing in a building which has less character but more air...
Yes, both VETO on the 30th and UofT hosting Ontario Bowl sound very reasonable to me. As for the rest of Mac Quizbowl, I don't know about the 30th, but I do...
