Submitting to the Archive

The Odyssey of the Mind School Program Handbook explicitly states that it is illegal to "reveal the nature of the spontaneous problem before the end of the tournament. It is also against the rules to discuss or provide the content of a spontaneous problem with someone participating in a different competition at the same level (regional, state/association final) before that competition ends. It is also against the rules to place the content or solution of a spontaneous problem in the public domain, such as on the Internet, through E-mail, or in newsletters, etc."

To this end, we will not accept submissions of a problem used in a 1996-97 competition until the end of the competition year. Please limit your submissions to original problems you, your teammates, or your coaches have devised. The maintainers of the archive will have the final decision as to which problems appear.

Please e-mail your problems to us at lsemel@superlink.net.
