Information about upcoming events has been posted to the events page.

If you are interested in running or participating in a semester-long ladder event, please e-mail ogs@andrew with the following:

Subject: OGS Ladder Event
Body: Name, Andrew ID, what game do you want to have a ladder for, will you be playing or running it. If you want to run it, then also add what your major is, how many units you are taking, what qualifications you have in running a ladder, and if you are comfortable with maintaining a web page for the ladder.

The game chosen will be directly based on the number of votes for that game. You can only vote once. In the event of a tie, the OGS officers will decide what game to run.
