To anyone who wants to learn more about classical music
I added it to my desktop feed reader.
MSNBC, campus news, Computer Architecture and various programming languages, security problems, and now classical music. It's getting quite diverse now days.

http://173.30.99.237/qbtps/ This supports IE 7-8 and FireFox. I've not tested with anything else. It's still pretty rough right now, and the stats aren't live. I'm going to add a page tomorrow or the next day to allow a more "detailed" description of tournaments (basically opening up room...

So I've been thinking
I have a working version of the tournament posting system. I'll have the beta online later today, as my web host decided I didn't need FTP access tonight. It's still in beta so it doesn't have all of the functionality that I'm going to provide (although it's miles ahead of the hsquizbowl.org one). N...

I have a few thoughts 1) You will have to teach moderators all over Missouri how to use this software. This I think will be most difficult. 2) Question companies often repeat questions in different sets, this is well known, this will have to be addressed in the system 3) Many rural schools have no ...

Let me clarify that. Whenever a stat person creates a match, the teams are stored as mere Strings (in terms of data types) The only people that would need to register for this web app are those that want to manage the stats, and given that registration takes about <15 seconds, I don't see why that's...

Charbroil: The advantage is that it centralizes everything and provides a free resource to have stats for tournaments posted, as well as announcements. The email restriction is not for college tournaments, merely college teams. If there isn't a single member on the team with a valid college email ad...

Epic Win thread
I count this as an epic win: Playing Mo State at Brock Landers Memorial on Saturday, I had to listen while they bageled a bonus on Miley Cyrus which I would have had an easy 20. Almost getting rewarded for Miley knowledge? ....totally an epic win. I hate Miley Cyrus and confusing her with Taylor Sw...

district predictions
C2D4 I have Belle.
It's my old team and they're really strong this year. Last year with a weaker lineup they came within 1 point of beating Valley Park in the final round (~20 points)
As I hear it, Belle v Valley Park IS C2D4 districts this year.

Excellent. Any idea who some of the other people are?KentB wrote: MSU will have a team for sure. Jason Loy is going to get one going. So basically, you'd be inheriting a very good player to help get you started.

Standard procedure is (and if it isn't it should be) if the moderator goofs on the question, toss it and get a replacement - even if it's as trivial a missing negative sign or mixing up North Dakota with South Dakota. In theory, a less-than-virtuous moderator could get away with making 1-2 intentio...

I don't know...it more or less makes sense to me. The moderator asked a question which was almost totally the same and got the right answer. I guess she could have used a replacement question...like the time at Helias where we were playing Richland (the game we won), it was question number 49, and ...

We were at a conference game and the moderator said something to the effect of "give the chemical formula for sulfate" (as a bonus) the team replied with the correct answer, but she read it wrong, meaning to say sulfite. She gave them the points because "they knew it", we protest...

Belle's seniors: me [ray] : MSU Andrew : BYU Samy : MS&T MSU doesn't have a team and I don't know that they will.. there was talk of it but nothing is certain. Andrew isn't going to join the BYU team, he's more interested in playing soccer. Samy isn't going to play (she wasn't very good anyway :)
