Buzzer system discount*: -$5 per system per team, up to $20 off.
Staffer discounts: -$5 per team that brings a scorekeeper, and -$15 for each experienced moderator a team brings. This can be a coach, parent, or any other person attending who isn’t playing. We will provide the scorekeeper with a lunch.

Question Set or Provider
NAQT Invitational Series #140
Question Format
20 tossups with 3-part rebounding bonuses, powers, and negs

This tournament will be using NAQT Invitational Series #140. This tournament was originally assigned IS-138, but swapped sets with the Hallsville Fall Academic Tournament.

The University of Missouri Quizbowl Club is pleased to announce that we are planning on hosting our seventh annual Missouri Fall Academic Tournament on October 18th, 2014. The tournament will be co-directed by Avery Wagner and myself, Itamar Naveh-Benjamin.

We will be using an Invitational Series set written by National Academic Quiz Tournaments, and we will use the same game format as last year (20 tossups with 30 point rebounding bonuses, and tossups will have -5 point penalties for an early buzz that is incorrect, and powers, or an extra 5 points for a correct early buzz). These are the same style of questions that NAQT will be using in the MSHSAA State Championship.
