> Hello all,
>
> We previously listed the wrong date for the Says You event at convention.
>
> The event will actually take place on Sunday, July 1, 2012, in the Lalique
> room.
> See the message below for details.
>
> The Sports and Recreation Division is currently seeking contestants
> for yet another Says You Challenge which it will be hosting at this
> year's  national convention.
>
> This event is based on the National Public Radio program Says You, a
> game  show in which contestants demonstrate their creativity and
> cleverness with  words through solving a variety of challenging yet
> amusing puzzles.  Each of
> the  six contestants will belong to a team of three people and
> demonstrate  their word wit as well as their knowledge of a wide range
> of subjects.
>
> Although Says You consists of several different rounds, its most
> popular  category is word bluff, in which members of one team are
> presented with a  word of unknown meaning along with several potential
> definitions given by  the  other team, only one of which is correct
> and the others of which  are  bluffs. The first team's challenge is to
> identify the correct definition. Other categories may include What's
> the Difference, Definition and
> derivation,  and other puzzly, wordy games.
>
> The event will take place on Sunday, July 1, from 06:30 to 08:30 P.M.
> in the Lalique room, atrium mezzanine
>
> If any of you believe that you would make for a strong contestant and
> decide that you would like to participate, please send an e-mail to
> Antonio Guimaraes at
> freethaught at gmail.com,
> no later than June 15.
>
> We would appreciate if you would briefly explain your reason(s) for
> wanting to participate in order to help us in choosing contestants.
> Antonio will reply promptly to request any necessary personal or
> contact information  and to  notify you of whether or not you have
> been selected. Also, feel  free to  distribute this e-mail to other
> people who may find this event of  interest. Remember that anyone is
> welcome to participate in the Says You
> Challenge as a spectator for an admission fee of $5. All proceeds will
> benefit the Sports and Rec Division.

> We anticipate this to be an exciting and entertaining event, and are
> hoping you can join us, whether you intend to compete or to watch the
> action while expanding your knowledge in the process!
>
> Sincerely,
>
> Antonio Guimaraes and Amy Ruell
