Re: Best Quizbowl Question of 2016

Re: Non-students playing closed tournaments under false name

Hot take: closed tournaments are closed and open tournaments are open. If you need to play under a pseudonym or lie on the forums, ya dun goofed. I'm quite new to quizbowl, but it seems like this is very correct, and it seems like being able to play a tournament by being friends with the editor is ...
