CCT 13: Possible dates?

Post by Peter Skinner »

Hello everyone,

I am starting to prepare for CCT 13, and I have decided that _any_ weekend in February 2011 is suitable.

The rules have been posted on the website and unless anyone feels like we should amend them, they will be treated as final.

If you plan on participating, please state your preference for a weekend in February, and if any of the rules need tweaking.

Thanks,

Peter Skinner
CCT Tournament Director

Weekend of the 5th or 12th is better for me - possible I'm out of town the next 2 weekends.

More than a few of us would prefer it not on Feb 5/6th as that is the Super Bowl weekend.
Even though the kickoff will not be before 6pm EST, it is major party time pretty much all weekend.
Also, the weekend of Feb 21st should be avoided as that is a holiday.

I suggest the last weekend in January the 29/30th (no football playoffs, no holidays).

So by virtue of online recommendations and email recommendations, these are the weekends people prefer sorted by number of votes:

January 29-30 (9)
February 26-27 (5)
February 12-13 (3)
