COHORT second reading - interest poll

Post by Restitutor27 »

Some people have been interested in a second reading of COHORT on the quizbowl discord - here is a poll for reading times. The time of day would by default be around 21:00 UTC (being several hours ahead of the US), but slight changes may be possible. I'll leave this open until Friday 1st July, 18:00 UTC, and then announce a time. Please vote for all days you're available if interested.

Original announcement:
I have written a 24/0 packet called COHORT (Convincingly Obfuscated History Of Rome Tossups). This is 24 tossups on Roman history, spread from the 4th century BC to the fall of the western empire.

Difficulty is a range from regular difficulty (~2/3 of answerlines) to open difficulty (~1/3 of answerlines), so it is quite hard on an objective level, but should be very powerable for specialists.

A lot of quizbowl Roman history is quite focused on late republic and early empire but this packet emphasises that less, so there will in particular be a good amount of mid-republic and post-284 empire content.
