In the same vein as the complaints about the "Kennedy" tossup, I thought "Pelosi" being outright acceptable for Paul Pelosi was fairly questionable.

Echoing the above, about how many staffers do we need to come up with to make this tournament viable?

Congratulations to Merrol Hyde, who defeated Cookeville A in a one-game final to win this tournament. Cookeville B finished third based on a statistical tiebreaker. Stats are up here: https://www.naqt.com/stats/tournament/standings.jsp?tournament_id=15629 Thank you to everyone who came to the tourna...

In Division I, Georgia Tech overcame an early loss in the double round-robin format to triumph over Kentucky in a one-game final. In Division II, Mississippi State cleared the round-robin field by two games to win the tournament without the need for a final. Stats are available here. Thank you to ev...

Rory,

Being nearby, if you ever want to stop by UTK for a practice, feel free to do so. Maybe we could even set up some scrimmages between our two clubs.

Per University policy, every attending school must have at least one adult chaperone throughout the duration of the tournament.

Do you mind sharing where I could find the New Hampshire QB League rules? Are they significantly different than regular NAQT question guidelines?

Hello everyone. I’m pleased to announce that the Southeast site of the 2024 NAQT SCT will be hosted here at the University of Tennessee- Knoxville on Saturday, February 3, 2024. I, William Barnes, will be the tournament director (with assistance from Dominic Reynolds). Please double check NAQT’s eli...

I can guarantee you SOME of us would be enthusiastic about a 11-team full RR!

Can we expect any music side events to be played (like last year?)

I agree, this sounds like a great idea. Definitely something we'd be interested in playing.

The stats report you guys uploaded has an error and can't be viewed.

Hey Daniel,

I have one member of my team that will be pursuing grad school at Syracuse next year. Do you have an email address or such I can give her so she will be able to reach out if she decides she wants to continue playing?

Is it possible to get a field update?

Is there any estimate of when you will be able to confirm this is in-person? We would be interested in attending if this is confirmed.

One thing I would like to note: There were repeated instances of moderators erroneously reading from the Division I packet during Division II play. I can't speak for other teams, but it happened to Tennessee A on two separate occasions (one of which was almost a full half) and happened to Tennessee ...

I want to start out this post by saying I have a ton of respect for the AQBL and the people who run it. As many others have said, they have done a great job with outreach and hosting generally good quality regular-season tournaments throughout this year. I do believe that everyone involved with the ...

Will this tournament be run on a NAQT ruleset, or PACE, as the creators of STASH recommend?

Hey Veer,

UT-Knoxville would potentially be interested in setting up an online scrimmage. Feel free to email me at williamrandallbarnes AT gmail DOT com if you would be interested as well, and we can work out the details.
