Here are the guidelines that people seem to accept. Let me know if you disagree.

The only change, which I have incorporated, is that suggested by Ruth Zisman from Bard, count the best four of the largest six tournaments.

NORTHEAST UNIVERSITIES DEBATE SWEEPSTAKES 2012-2013

 

BECOMING A PART OF THE SWEEPSTAKES:

 

TOURNAMENTS AND POINTS:

MUST BE A WORLDS FORMAT TOURNAMENT.

CAN COUNT THE BEST FOUR RESULTS FROM THE LARGEST SIX TOURNAMENTS IN THE NORTHEAST (NEW ENGLAND, NEW YORK). THIS MAY INCLUDE USU IF IT IS HELD IN THE NORTHEAST. IT DOES COUNT YALE BUT NOT TOURNAMENTS IN CANADA. IF WORLDS IS HELD IN THE NORTHEAST IT WILL COUNT. IF TOURNAMENTS IN THE TOP SIX HAVE THE SAME NUMBER OF TEAMS THE SCHOOL WILL RECEIVE THE SCORE FROM THE TOURNAMENT WHERE THEY SCORED HIGHER.
