Re: General Discussion Thread

The biggest problem I saw and I’m sure it’s echoed in the other comments but a lot of the bonuses mentioned future answerlines. For example the Oscar Wilde bonus talked about the Ballad of Reading Jail (or whatever the title is) and then later the third bonus’ answerline was the latter piece of lite...

Re: NASAT Online Mirror

I would prefer the double mirror approach because I won't be able to play on the later date, which would have been the more preferred date according to the poll.

Re: The end of the match

Right now, when teams shake hands at the end of quizbowl games, it is mostly a shitshow where people are throwing their hands into a massive disorganized pile-on of players. This reeks of quizbowl. It would be better if teams stayed in the order they were sitting, faced each other, stood in lines, ...

Re: ACF and Powers (POLL)

I don't think this is that hard. Literally you could just have the head editor be like "ok mates I want the power mark to end so that we intend to have 33% of people power it by the end of the tossup". Then he can send that logistics email to every other editor so they're all on the same ...
