TRASHionals - Call for Teammates
Thanks to both of my TRASHionals teammates doing something silly like getting invitations to try out for Jeopardy! (Who does that, anyway?), I am now left searching for new teammates for TRASHionals. If you're interested, contact me at andy -at- andysthoughts -dot- com. I also have plenty of hotel r...

As if people will vote for Ottawa, but... Assuming the drive gets arranged, the NAQT team will be: Tamara Vardomskaya Dan Barber Philippe Marchand (and possibly one more undergrad) The McGill team should be the same that went to the 2005 ICT in D2. I have no idea if Queen's, SFU, and UBC are taking...

I too second the call for examples. There are obviously players who upped their power numbers quite a bit (I count myself as one, going from 1 in 12 rounds to 16 in 15 rounds), but I don't know of any teams with the exact team composition from last year. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong sectionals re...

The packet also didn't run out on either of our D2 teams. Examining the stats, they frequently heard 18-21 tossups, though they did have some incidents of 13 or 15 (and I see another game in D2 which only got to 12). How on earth is it humanly possible to get through only 12 cycles in 18 minutes? I...

I'm not sure who Michigan sent out to Rochester in September, but losing 330-155 to a one-person (Canadian) team at that tournament doesn't bode too well for them, I think...fjkelly6112 wrote:But you never know, maybe some freshmen studs at Michigan or Chicago or some CC team might end up winning that.

I just read a few of the packets. Tip to writers: Wikipedia is not a good source for anything, but especially not for quizbowl questions. Even if it was, do not write your WHOLE packet out of Wikipedia, as it appears some teams did. Even if you do that, don't directly plagiarize choice phrases. And...

Here are my thoughts based on my experiences with the Great Lakes tournament: As a player looking at the ACF Fall questions, I was pleased with the packet set. While there were a large number of items I would not have any idea on early on, the questions were accessible enough so that people with &qu...
