Chattahoochee (GA)

Unfortunately, due to the date change, Chattahoochee will not be able to attend this year. Best of luck to all the teams in attendance. Thanks!

Rountree

This is an awesome field. Also, it is nice to have a full round robin invitational back in the ATL - been a long time coming. We're really looking forward to this Saturday. Thanks for putting this together Coach Mullally!

I believe we have fixed most of the glaring errors in the Full Stats. Thanks!

Fred,

Please add Chattahoochee to the list of teams expressing Interest. Thanks!

We used bouncebacks.

The Predictable Consequences wrote:That game against Alpharetta A might not have stats entered correctly. Dorman B also apparently heard 26 bonuses against Woodford D.

These will need to be fixed.

As the Texas Invitational (originally scheduled for this weekend) has now been moved to the following weekend, Chattahoochee would like to express its strong interest in this event. I would like to say we are 100% going, but as this event is more than 3 months away, that is nearly impossible. Howeve...

I'm not saying you'll have to play under the name "And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead" because of the ginormous margins of victory you'll have, and you'll triumphantly high five each other while piles of new quiz bowlers are tossed aside in sobbing heaps. This might be the most glo...

Are we sure it's a good idea to use a longtime coach and an established very good player as a fill-in team for a novice event? The 3 of us certainly did not intend to create any fuss here; I simply informed Robin that if he needed a scab/filler/chimera/whatever-you-wanna-call-it team, I would be wi...

We have arranged for some former high school players to help edit the set: David Benas, Adam Silverman, and Kunal Naik. Hopefully, their combined knowledge and experience will make this the best CATT ever.

EDITED to reflect new editing team.

Brookwood 3
Cedar Shoals 2-3
Dorman 4
Marist 2-3
Walton 2-3

Lily, I just had a quick question about when you plan to upload the set? My kids enjoyed the questions very much; well done. Thanks!

This weekend, Mr. Richards offered to let my team take the place of Cedar Shoals B. Can I please bring a team? Can somebody get back to me in the next 24 hours to let me know (so I can let my team know one way or the other)? Matt, I believe the N. GA folks know of your interest and may have tried t...

North GA folks, please add 1-2 teams from Chattahoochee to your field. We can also bring 1-2 buzzers. I will let you know for sure later next week the exact numbers from the Hooch. Thanks!

Since anyone can play, and I'm going to be at Cedar Shoals anyway with my teams, count me in Wes. Thanks.

Adam, I thought the set was quite strong (as was the competition). It was really nice to hear such good questions and get to play most of the top teams in GA (plus the best team in SC and one of the best in the country). For this being your first tournament-directing experience, you did a superb job...

No worries. February 11th would've been almost perfect for us to host, but I completely understand. Thanks for checking!

Matt et al.,

Is there any possibility that the CMST would be available a week before the February 18th start date?

2) With 20 teams, it's difficult to come up with a better format. The only thing I could think of off the top of my head is 4/4 cross-over, while the 9/10 teams from each bracket do a full RR. However, this adds two more rounds to an already long tournament, and I do not know if there were enough p...

I will reserve discussion of the questions since there are several iterations of this set still to be played, but overall I thought they were above average, especially for a first effort from Norcross.
