Jon you more than outdid yourself this year in the round robin and tournament itself. Both were well run with great competition, good food and stellar judging. This should be a quarters bid at a minimum. You can expect us back next year.

I just wanted to thank jon for running an awesome tournament and an equally awesome round robin. I agree with Anjan that this tournament probably has the best competition and judging in the northeast…congrats to Ken, Salant, both Matts and ardi and also to joan jake ravi etc.

Congrats to Joan and Jake
Also, thanks to Jon Cruz for running an awesome tournament and doing everything possible to make it feasible for Vestavia to attend. Highly recommend it to anyone for next, plus theres no way it won’t have an octas bid so its definitely worth it.

Nice way to tiptoe around calling out the accidental omission of your name, Mr. Liipfert.

Thank you to all who came! We hope to have you back for the thirty-eighth annual New York City Invitational next year. I appreciate the feedback I’ve been getting here and via e-mail, and the positive comments are much appreciated, both by me and the entire Bronx Science program.

Congrats to jake, joan, david, and jason. But also, Joan is such a good speaker that she got both 7th and 11th.

First, congrats to Joan on a great run, it was a really fun final round, and a worthy rematch of the VBI demo round.

Second, I’d like to thank Jon and the Bronx Science team for an extremely well-run tournament; it’s definitely the best of the Northeast in my opinion. I’d really recommend it to anyone next year who wants solid judging and competition, and the Round Robin is awesome. Bottom line: GO2BRONX.

Also, congrats to fellow confederate Ken Hershey for getting to quarters (although at Ravi’s expense), Joe Vaughan for breaking five debaters, JZhou for getting the bid and second speaker, Tess for going undefeated in prelims, Patrick Diehl for surviving his first Northeast tournament, and Sean Wynn for being the true winningest.

See you next year in the NYC.
