Plans for NITOC 2023 at Concordia University in Irvine, California are progressing well. Here are the details you want to note:
On-Campus Housing and Hotel Options
Registered Stoa members will receive an email in early March with details about how to register for the lottery system that will be used to determine dorm housing. Since the number of dorm units is limited, we cannot guarantee everyone will get on-campus housing. We recommend you make alternative arrangements in case you do not get a dorm room. In addition to researching Airbnbs, you may want to check out the hotel options on the NITOC 2023 website: https://nitoc2023.homeschooldebate.net/.
Judge Registration
Also, Judge Registration for NITOC 2023 is now open! You can register yourself as a judge as well as invite friends and family members in the Irvine area to sign up to be community judges. Thank you!
NITOC Invitations
The first round of NITOC Invitations will be sent on April 14, with the final invitations sent on May 1.
NITOC Registration
In order to compete at NITOC, you must register. Registration opens on April 24 and closes on May 3.

What makes Subway Surfers special is the relentless sense of thrill: the further you run, the faster the pace and the greater the challenge become, requiring intense focus to avoid crashing into trains or unexpected obstacles appearing ahead.
Seeing that dorm housing at Concordia University is decided by a lottery system really brings home the sorting challenge of big events.
Registered Stoa members will receive an email in early March with instructions on how to participate in the housing Space Waves lottery for on-campus dorm accommodations.
I like that this update keeps families informed in a practical way instead of leaving travel and housing details vague. The note about limited dorm space, hotel options, registration dates, and judge sign-ups makes NITOC feel much easier to plan for, especially for people coming from out of town. For me, details like lodging matter because the event experience is shaped by what happens outside the competition too. A comfortable stay can really change the week. That is why a thermostat for hotels feels relevant here, since better climate control, energy efficiency, and guest comfort can make busy tournament travel feel smoother for everyone involved.
