The new Kingwood invitational is February 6, 2016 (posted today). It's run by the same group, but will be at Kingwood high school.
Thanks guys.

It's a shame there are no December invitationals - makes it a bit difficult to form teams early. For that reason I'm sure if there was one, it'd probably be extremely popular among teams...

Do a lot of teams go to CyFalls, then, since it's so early?

There's a waiting list.

The people on the wait list don't attend the competition and therefore don't medal.

Someone that attended the competition always gets 1st, someone else 2nd, and another 3rd.

I think he's asking how many medals they give out per event at the competition, i.e., top 6 like nationals, or something else?
