BrainBusters Fall is being held on December 7th, not November 9th.

EDIT: It's also probably worth adding that the Rochester Area NHBB competition will be held on February 8th, 2014.

There's a new ProtoBowl app. Yay.
It doesn't work for iOS6. >.> Nay.
I don't want to update my iPhone to iOS7, but...

Although I'm a competitor and not a reader, if I was a reader, I would probably believe in strict interpretation of the answer line. So if someone answered Ivan Grozny, which I had never heard of as an acceptable name for Ivan the Terrible, I'd probably say that it was wrong. I'm sorry - I didn't k...

Will the set be posted after its use in Europe? No, though it will likely be available for sale once it's been tightened up (meaning the above issue and a few other things are fixed). In other news, I was very happy with how the logistics of this tournament went - everything ran on or ahead of sche...

At middle school nationals, there were a couple of typos and badly written questions. For example, in a lightning round, the clue was something like "longest living President, who served in the 70's" and the team answering said "Reagan". Wrong, right? He didn't serve in the 70's!

On both Opera and Mozilla Firefox, it seems to work like normal until you try to buzz in. Then, the enter button won't do anything; you can't submit a response.
