Re: Tossup 21: One More Question
Thanks for making this series. Great production values, clearly a ton of work went into the interviews and production. Overall a nice contribution to quizbowl lore.
Suggestions: would like to get some more perspectives from teams who weren't necessarily national powerhouses + the early episodes were sometimes a little meandering in terms of what the focus was + a little bit more consistent editing.
A proposal for the next edition of this series: NSC 2011.

Plus the ad hoc circumambulation of the Northwestern campus (while carrying heavy objects!), the "hold the whole tournament for State College" opening, the inexplicable 2.5 hour delay after Round 2, the numerous contested protests... the possibilities are endless.
