So my ride to this on Saturday had to bail. If anyone in the Richmond area could spare me a ride (I'm about two hours away from VCU), private message me. I can fully compensate for gas/time/etc. It would be helpful to know from what direction you need a ride (e.g. north). I'm coming from southern V...

UVa will host an IS set tentatively on November 15th.

I am geographically ignorant—if that makes sense. So to answer your question, no, I have most certainly not.

In my few years of quiz-bowl experience, I have come across a plethora of great teams. The most astonishing thing is that the top-tier teams—the ones I have competed against—all seem to have, more or less, one individual that provides the infrastructure of the squad—you know, the one averaging 140 o...
