We may not be in Lexington, but I’m getting updates as if I am. To help Planet debate & the3nr cover the weekend – we’ve put together a spreadsheet for the results.
https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=tmADmRmVmonlewW8bZOtEdA&hl=en
We’ve done this in years past and been successful – hope people will be able to add in what they know.
Due to the lack of donations, it will not be feasible that the bluetub crew will be able to make it up to Lexington this weekend. We hate to cancel our coverage – we had some pretty neat things in store – but just will not be able to make it happen.
We anticipate coverage for CFL & NFL Nationals. Thank you for the schools who donated and tried to make our coverage possible.
Thanks for your support!
We’d like to thank the contributors so far to our coverage for this weekend. We still need several more donations to make this possible – all donations will be refunded if bluetub cannot make it this weekend.
In the meantime as we prepare for the Tournament of Champions, we’d like to start getting a scout list available. Our goal is to model after the NDT and have a scout in every round in the early preliminaries. If you are heading to Lexington this weekend, and willing to scout – help us out and leave us a comment.
Thanks!
Jeffrey Miller
The survey’s been out for 12 hours and we already have overwhelming support to continue our coverage at the 2010 TOC.
In order to make this happen, we will need donations – donations will be used to house our Coverage Staff and pay for transportation to/from Lexington. You can make donations to bluetub using the button on the right. Thank you in advance for any contribution to the TOC coverage.
We will determine our attendance at the 2010 TOC by Tuesday of next week depending on the amount of donations.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact Jeffrey Miller.
As the Tournament of Champions approach (less than 10 days away)– we have a question for our audience: Is the bluetub coverage necessary?
We are currently on the fence about making a decision on whether or not to cover the 2010 TOC to the extent we’ve done in the past two years.
Our hold up is the gaforensics budget. If we decide to move forward and provide coverage for the 2010 Tournament of Champions – we will need the community’s help to get us there [via donations on the bluetub site].
To collect the information, we have made a short 2 question survey: Click here to take survey
