Quiz Bowl Staffer Database (cross-posted from the collegiate section)

Post by A Dim-Witted Saboteur »

(This is the same as a thread created earlier in the collegiate section, but also seems highly relevant to high school)

Given that connecting outsiders willing to staff and tournaments that need outside staff is a persistent problem in QB, Matt Mitchell, Ryan Rosenberg, and I are working on a project that should help remedy that. The following google form represents the data collection stage of what will eventually be a tool integrated with QBNotify to alert potential staffers of tournaments happening in places they've indicated they'd be willing to go and tournament hosts of available staffers in their area. In addition, having a database of tournament staff will be useful for quizbowl as a whole. A map of available staffers should also eventually be generated, which should be useful for coordinating staff carpools and the like. Given that collecting this data will take a bit and all parties concerned have other projects, this will take a little while to become operative but should be up in the near future.

A link to the form is below; no more specific location data than your ZIP code will be requested.
