Re: Canadian Player Poll 2018

After many seconds of deliberation and applying the latest breakthroughs in sabermetrics to develop a new statistic, I have ranked the Canadian circuit in terms of their WAP (Wins Above Paul). Unfortunately I cannot disclose the equation which determines WAP, but I'm sure everyone will agree with my...

Re: 2018 Division II SCT: specific question discussion

For the third part of the Cynicism bonus I answered "chicken" and got prompted, which really confused me because the clue says "featherless" so I assumed that was implicit. The second clue in the monad tossup isn't a unique identifier and I think is confusable with something like...

Re: ACF Fall 2017 Thanks and Discussion

I really enjoyed playing this set and the only thing is have to add is a really specific issue. The bonus on Berkeley in the Cornell B/Michigan A/UBC/ TAMU misrepresents Berkeley and in one case the answer is wrong. The second part says that Berkeley thought minds were the only thing that existed, a...
