Contact Hubert to get ssh access to the webpage
Create BAPHL header graphic and background image
- Otherwise, just reuse css and information from previous BAPHL pages
Good idea to have this up about a month ahead of time
Put up a "Looking for Group" page so lone hunters can find a team
- Past practice has been to email the baphl account, but it would be easier to just have a page where people can ask/receive team members

Set up a google form and embed in website
Set up paypal button to the paypal account of your team
Set a registration cap
Put up a specific time that registration closes (11:59PM EST for instance)
- Make sure deadline gives you enough time to produce puzzles
- Expect a lot of last minute registrations. BAPHL 10 had 6 of 42 teams register in the last 24 hours (and 1 team contacted us after the deadline to register)
Ask for both the team captain's email and phone number so you can contact the team during the event
Ask how new teams heard of the event
