HIGS has raised $701 for Homebody Industries! Thank you for everyone who contributed to this set, from all my writers, all the people who helped me with the steps in creating a quality tournament set, and everyone who participated in playing the set! I know that $700 isn't the largest amount of mone...

After reading everything, I'm so disgusted. I'm disgusted that someone who appears so dedicated and passionate towards quiz bowl on the exterior is the last thing I want my kids to see on the interior.

Hello all, In order to ensure that the quality of our tournament is optimal (since this is the first time we have written a tournament), we will be postponing the date of the tournament indefinitely. For those interested in how the tournament is going, we have finished writing 4/5 of the questions a...

That sounds like a good idea. I'll talk about this with the other editors, but I think a focus on core subjects instead of computation is a right move.
Thanks for your help!

Hey neat. Hope your writing is going well, and I look forward to seeing the set once it's out. I understand why you think this, but it doesn't play out how you'd expect. SCOP Novice 6 had 88% conversion on math tossups (three points above the target conversion and topping most conversion rates outs...
