How to enlist
Teams of 4 or 5 people can enlist until the day of the event. At the evening of the quiz, you can still enroll your team at the entrance!
Normally a team has 4 members. However, a 5th member is allowed if he/she has not reached the age of 18 on the day of the event.
The following information should be added to the registration:
- The team’s name. The format of a team name is <mother organization>_<team name> , e.g. KULEUVEN_THEMOSFETS. The organization has the right to modify the team name to avoid confusion or to preserve good taste.
- The website/social media page of the team, if not, of its parent organization.
- The parent company, institution, formal or informal group it represents.
- A corresponding person, called “captain”, with
- Name
- Address
- Mobile phone
- The names and emails of the effective participants, 4 in total, possibly including the captain. One can change all effective participants until the last moment, yet the corresponding person cannot be changed.
The registration fee is 20 € per team. During the registration process you will receive the bank details. Registration becomes valid after payment is received. Registered teams receive a drink coupon of 20 € on the evening of the event.
By enlisting, the team agrees that its participation and results will be made public, and that photos taken at the event might afterwards appear on the website.
On approval by the organization the team will receive a “roll number”. Having an early roll number bears little benefit, except that this gives a place close to the quiz masters, and gives the advantage in case of a draw.
Personnel of the Organizer cannot participate in the competition, participation outside competition is possible.
