Ian, you're in. Please send me an email at the address listed in the second post above.

BroNi

Field updated.

We have also decided to only have a playoff with the top 32 teams.

BroNi

Corrected, thank you.

We might consider it. The other option, which we are tending more toward right now, is to keep the 7 prelim. rounds and then have two single elim. brackets, one of the top 16 teams and one of teams 17 thru 32.

BroNi

Field updated above.

I would like to thank SHP Pirate for his opinions about our team. And I would like to return the complement. By all standards, Seton Hall is an excellent team!! We have already played head to head 4 times and have split 2-2, but it seems every game comes down to the last question. Really very exciti...

I would like to open up an issue for discussion, which is in a way directly related to Byko's ratings. I know there have been previous discussions about this, but Dave's system has changed things. At Rutgers yesterday, another coach and I were discussing some points concerning the upcoming tournamen...

BroNi

No, Bergan A had their only loss in the prelims (to Kellenberg A), while Seton Hall went 5-0 in their bracket. In the playoff braket, Bergan A beat both Seton Hall and Kellenberg - went undefeated in fact - and was therefore the clear winner.

BroNi

18 teams, 10 schools, 3 brackets of 6 teams each, NAQT set 68 5 prelim brackets led to 3 playoff brackets in which the top 2 teams where placed in the top bracket, next 2 in the second, etc...

BroNi

Last year's coach stepped down, and I couldn't get her replacement to answer a number of emails, so I presumed they weren't interested.

He contacted me recently and may help out anyway....but at Kellenberg.

BroNi

Further information.... This year, Kellenberg will be running the tourney solo. Therefore the location will be at Kellenberg MHS in Uniondale, Long Island, NY, right off of Exit M4 West from the Meadowbrook Parkway. Registration will be from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m., with the first round starting at 8:45 a...

Kellenberg should be there, with 2 (3) teams and 3 buzzers.

I spent a couple of hours this summer combing through emails from Quiz Bowl Tournaments up and down the East Coast from around Washington, DC to Boston, MA. I tried to get rid of duplicates, and I tried to identify as many as I could. I ended up with a list of around 270 high schools that may be int...

BroNi

Don't know if anyone noticed, but the ACE website posted that most of the results from MSM is missing and that they would like some help so that they can update their site. I sent them the material that was posted earlier in this thread. Anyone else help out with additional info?

BroNi

Bloomfield...

At Half Hollow, you lost to Commack A in the first round of the playoffs.

BroNi

The only thing stopping us was the projected conflict with the Seton Hall Prep tourney....therefore you can count us in!

My records for NAC go back to '97. They are pretty good. I have Bayside (no team with that name has participated since '97. Can't help you!) Fairview, CO was 13th in '02, only yr. participated, so its a good bet. McKinley, LA was 37th in '06, 69 in '98 Roseville, MN was 28th in '03, 23rd in '02 and ...

For the most part, no. There were some, but scattered. Most of the toss-up questions were straight forward with few of those misleading lead-ins that used to plague this format (note that I am NOT saying there were none.) The 15 and 20 point questions in the last round were often quite good and chal...

Kellenberg will sign up with 2 or 3 teams, 2 buzzers and one moderator.

At what point do people recommend increasing a single-elimination playoff round to the next level? I don't want to rehash all the old arguements about the pros and cons of single-elimination or Swiss-pairing, etc...., I just want to know what people think.

Keep in mind as you continue on this thread, the preliminary games at NAC were abridged versions of the games played in previous years. Each quarter (except the 60 second round) was somewhat shortened in order to complete a game in 30 minutes instead of 45. This was done so that each team could play...
