The Quizbowl Resource Center

EDIT: well, this was supposed to be a pm ... fuck

Ed Powers is my favorite quizbowl person right now. aaron you need to come off your high horse. i spoke to you truthfully yesterday because I thought you were my friend. thanks for throwing that in my face. and i don't need to defend myself to you, I did nothing wrong. my behavior at the tournament...

House teams were inconstant, with talk of actually MERGING teams post-prelims to make the playoffs work, which is forbidden pretty much at every tournament ever. In a surprise appearance, none other than noted competent moderator Steve Feldman, showed up to buzz on easy questions for about-to-colla...

I'm somewhat interested in attending this, depending on my ability to spend the night on the floor of some friends of friends ...

But yeah, if anyone could use a scab player on their team please shoot me an email at stevengfeldman at gmail, and I'll try to work something out ...

The "Brandeis" team for Saturday will consist of: Jonathan Magin, Hannah Kirsch, Guy Tabachnick and Steve Feldman The "Brandeis" teams for Sunday is not actually a Brandeis team at all, but will consist of: Steve Feldman, Guy Tabachnick and two other, yet to be determined, people...

Count me in!

I'd offer to write, but I don't think I would be able to write up to the caliber of this tournament. However, I would be more than happy to play it, or staff a mirror.

Honestly, I agree with Jerry that its sort of rude/inappropriate to ask Yale not to run their tourney. However, I do think everything would be much smoother if there were no conflict of dates. Perhaps if the tournament was moved a week or two it would be able to draw a larger crowd, sans conflict. B...

So I guess I'll jump in here ... at ASS II ... I managed to have two horrible negs ... on one they were talking about an online system for trading it and how you can buy used ones ... and then they said one ply ... and I twitchbuzzed with "toilet paper"for "chucks" ... also at AS...

Hey this sounds pretty cool. Are you guys planning on having a Northern or New England mirror?

Hey, this sounds pretty cool. Are you guys planning on allowing a Northeast or New England Mirror?

Oh yeah ... also ... I enjoyed this tournament ... it was my first trash tournament and it was certainly quite a bit of fun ... despite the fact that I had some pretty horrible negs ... and I must say ... my favorite packet was the ACF themed one ... like if someone wrote a whole set like that it wo...

heh ... well there was a clue that sounded suspiciously like When Harry Met Sally ... and so I buzzed and realized that "Death by faking an orgasm" probably wasn't the answer ... so I said something funny ...

I enjoyed this tournament ... however, I did feel that the answer choice at times seemed to be very obscure and there were also a fair amount of questions that could have been better written ... also, the questions tended to not be very clue-dense ... but overall, the tournament was fun, I enjoyed m...

This sounds really cool ... hopefully you guys can get yourselves an East Coast mirror

So the stats are up ... http://doc-ent.com/rm/RMHS2008_standings.html ... thanks to Mike Bentley for hosting them ... Im glad the tournament is over ... and it was a ton of fun (and a ton of work) to run it ... keith did a great job with the question writing, editing, and packet organization ... and...

Yeah dude,

i think someone said this before but its pretty amazing that the entire tournament was entirely student run ... not many schools can say that they have done that.

Oh yeah and Daichi ... this would be a much longer post if I didnt know that one could be banned for profanity ... but it would serve you well to learn some tact.

Haha thanks ... I liked the tournament personally ... it was fun and i dont usualy pass up on any chance to do quizbowl ... although i do have to agree with Ray? that the tus which may have been quite long but could be gotten off the first word (ie. identify the old soviet satelites ... first part o...

I have never actually been to UMD so could someone please post directions to the location of the scrimmage.

Thank you very much in advance for all of the help.
