I liked the set a lot, good questions and the trash was extremely creative and as relevant as could be. The current events was also pretty good, accessible with good clues.

One aspect of contention for bonuses is that the lit was extremely repetitive in structure. Fairly well-known work, author, obscure work structure is easy to write but not particularly fun to play. It's a minor criticism, though. There were some individual questions I didn't like, such as the cartography bonus for its obscurity. On the other hand, the tossups on Antietam and Magna Carta with clues on the Sunken Road and debs owed to Jews respectively ended up in buzzer races on the first line.

Regardless, it was a fun set. Thanks for writing!
