Re: 2016 National History Bee Discussion
Overall, the question set for the bee was great (besides the repeats). One of my favorite questions was the Dick Cheney Hunting Incident question, In which I was prompted when I said "that time when Dick Cheney shot a guy". However the answer was accepted because apparently in the answer line in said accept "Dick Cheney shooting a guy". That question was one of the best I encountered throughout the entire tournament, so props to the writing team on that.
