Due to a last minute change of plans, I'll also be present! I'm so grateful to Sophia for organizing this event and letting me be a part of it on such short notice. Hope to see you all there.

I second everything Julia said and would add that she has done a great job leading Darien, including to a T-20 finish at HSNCT. Shoutouts also to Tora Husar and Olivia Lamberti who both inspire me lots. (And I'll quickly add that I know Hunter didn't finish that highly at NSC but I was 51% of scorin...

I'll be at Harvard.
Jon Suh has convinced me to play, but I'm not sure how committed I'll be.

I agree, but I don't think we should settle for the idea that the two are mutually exclusive.

Okay, this post is long overdue, and it echoes some of the things I’m going to say in my independent study, but whatever, here we go. It’s recently come to my attention (partly in conjunction with my study, mostly not) that there are several high-level players and officials in the Quiz Bowl establis...

Okay, be sure to let me know. Sorry about any inconvenience the errors may have caused. That said, full stats are finally now up with corrections. I have made no corrections to Great Valley B's games, because I currently have no record of them except the scoresheets our staffers turned in. However, ...

Combined stats are now up; however, there are some issues with the bonus points, and they will be resolved ASAP to ensure that rankings can be correct for all. I do not currently have access to the prelim score sheets, but I will pore over playoffs to see if I can find the issue there. After spring ...

Thanks to everyone for coming! Congrats to High Tech A for defeating Downingtown STEM in the final, and to Bard A for clinching 3rd.

I'm going to start an email thread about this during this coming week. Sorry for my late action; I hope y'all understand, since I was very busy with Prison Bowl XI. Expect an email in the next couple days.

Hi, guys, To the best of my knowledge (and the knowledge of those to whom I've spoken), for the past few years, the NY NASAT team has been organized informally by the Captain of Hunter, so I guess that falls to me this year. After reaching out to a few other schools (GNS, Bard, etc.), we've decided ...

As hopefully most of you know, March 24, the date of this tournament, is also the date of the March for Our Lives, a national, student-organized protest in response to the recent Parkland school shooting. I have thought long and hard about whether or not to cancel the tournament, and after talking t...

We are delighted to announce that Prison Bowl XI has just been Platinum certified by the Partnership for Academic Competition Excellence (PACE)!

So as the person to whom the sexist comments in question were directed, I just wanted to say I really appreciate NAQT’s response to this most recent pushback. It’s true that after the comments were posted, I wondered why more wasn’t done right away to address the issue. I also wondered why DCC made ...

Hunter would like to add a fourth team to the waitlist. It can be in either division.

Congratulations to Greens Farms, who emerged victorious from a one-game final with Bard A to win! Ridgewood A snagged third. Thanks to everyone for a great day!

Hi, guys! The way our school funds clubs has changed this year. Although Hunter Quiz Bowl's been around for a decade now, we've never had to do any serious fundraising before. Outside of the traditional but low-yield bake sales (and running tournaments, of course), what do y'all do to help raise mon...

Hey, Haggai! Depending on if the date or set conflicts with anything else, there's a definitive chance we'd be down. Miss you around the circuit!

If you want a healthy dose of modern day sexism, just read the comments on the Periscope videos of the HSNCT finals. Thankfully, based off their Facebook thread, it looks like NAQT is taking concrete steps to avoid this sort of thing in the future. Because I'm bad at social media and don't really c...

NOTE: PLEASE POST THIS ONE AND NOT THE OTHER ONE: Copied from my Facebook post (warning: some profanity): The issues with being a girl in Quiz Bowl range from the banal and annoying to the outright offensive.

I also loved the parentheses tossup (it was probably my favorite lit question in any set this year), but I did hear a few people frustrated to have it in the first round because it seemed difficult -- would you mind posting that question, so I could see where it went after the "Since feeling is...

If anyone wants to venture south, Hunter is mirroring SCOP Novice on 10/28 (probably) and running Prison Bowl XI on 3/24 (almost certainly).

notchole

My apologies: I posted these on the wrong thread.

notchole

Hunter will have a novice tournament on SCOP 10/28 (tentatively) and Prison Bowl 3/24 (almost definitely). Sorry about the October conflicts, but hopefully since it's a novice tournament everything will be okay. We already had to submit the dates to our school so we can't change them.

An update: Hunter's SCOP Novice tournament will actually be October 1, not October 15.

notchole

Hunter will be running our usual two tournaments, SCOP Novice in the fall and Prison Bowl X (housewrite) in the spring. The dates have not gone through the final approval process but SCOP will very probably be October 15 and Prison Bowl will very probably be March 25.
