Can I see the text for the tossup on Livy, and the conversion stats for the tossup on "pigeonhole principle"?

There are also a bunch of DOD sponsored high schools all over Korea, Japan, Okinawa, and Guam. I'm not sure if they have anything that resembles QB. I began my quizbowl career from a DOD middle school on Guam. The island has a surprisingly active "Academic Challenge Bowl" circuit at both ...
