Re: 2014 HSNCT and SSNCT survey results
So, two percent of HSNCT survey respondents say the average PPB for the entire field should be 30? Am I reading this table right?
How would that even work?

If every team at the tournament got 30 PPB then the average PPB would be 30.Frater Taciturnus wrote:So, two percent of HSNCT survey respondents say the average PPB for the entire field should be 30? Am I reading this table right?

Re: 2014 HSNCT and SSNCT survey results
Interesting on the SSNCT that the top three items that bothered participants were related to the site, not the tournament. That suggests NAQT is delivering a quality competition.
However, a surprisingly high 6% were bothered by the protest process. Anyone who responded that way want to weigh in?

We are following up with the survey respondents to identify (and improve on) problematic issues.
