Folks
I've just sent off competition details to the MOAB organisers to run DBMM. It should be up on the MOAB web-site soon. I've asked the organisers to confirm the entry cost.
Details are below.
This is intended to be a fun and relaxed competition over 2 days, leaving the Monday free for HOTT, shopping or a sleep in. I hope you can make it.
Cheers
