    Tip of the day: this comment board can be used for Q&A about the competition. The Big Bang! Organizing Committee monitors the board and someone will reply to your query as soon as possible.

    As I mentioned before, think of this as a virtual notice board. Check out Stanford's BASES competition http://younoodle.com/groups... to see how members of their community use the group's comment board.
