NHBB 2012-2013 Regionals Sets Now Posted

Post by Great Bustard »

NHBB's 2012-2013 Regionals Sets have now been posted at http://www.hsapq.com/samples (scroll down, they're at the bottom). Note that Bowl Round 10 is missing from all 3 sets since we'll be using those for the scrimmage matches at Nationals. After Nationals, those rounds, along with the Nationals set will be posted too. Thanks to HSAPQ for getting these up quickly after our Regionals concluded for the year yesterday. You may wish to avoid reading some of these on your own, so that you can use them to practice as a team, but of course, that's up to you.

HSAPQ appreciates being involved in this vast and worthy undertaking. We have written 2286 questions for NHBB this year, containing 3678 answer lines. While we strive for perfection, I'm sure that over the course of that very large number, we made a few mistakes in the accuracy or precision of clues or in our judgment of difficulty. I'll be happy to note any concerns along those lines in this thread and respond where appropriate.

This might just be me but I think you left Bowl Round 10 on the B set in the uploaded folder.

This has since been fixed; thanks for the heads up.
