I also find The Art Story to be a useful resource for gaining decent knowledge about major movements.

Re: Improving Power Percentage
A very important thing for getting better at quizbowl (and as a consequence increasing powers) is increasing your depth of knowledge. For example: knowing who painted Olympia and Luncheon on the Grass will likely let you convert any question where Manet is the answerline. However, learning less surf...

Given the widespread use of the hsquizbowl discord, I am mildly surprised that it's not pinned anywhere on the forums. Anyway here you go.

Re: The Quizbowl Packet Archive IS getting an overhaul!
Some exciting updates! The hard part of integrating the old website with the new is largely done. The ability to edit the archive still needs to be added. But the public frontend is largely done as well. If anyone would like to help wrap up, we need to do some tagging of sets for difficulty, topic,...

Was way too tired last night, so I made a few errors in the final stats report. This should be the final one.

Re: Starting a team at Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa
There's a fairly healthy Missouri college circuit that often includes tournaments hosted at Truman State in Kirksville (north-central MO), WashU in St. Louis, and the University of Missouri in Columbia. I think you'll find tournaments in St. Louis offer pretty much the exact same travel time for yo...

Hello everybody.

Missouri 2020-2021.
Well, it's about that time of the year when a new thread discussing the upcoming season sprouts up. The thing that interests me about this season is how much talent still remains from last year. In particular, the top 4 consensus teams (STL, Ladue, Central and CHC) retain their top scorers, and most...

Re: Missouri 2019-20
One team to definitely be on the lookout for is the St. Louis Patriots. Although they are not able to attend many tournaments because of their homeschool status, the tournaments which they went to last year they showed great promise. Sam Lindsey is a fantastic history player who at WHIT was third in...

Fred this is a really stupid question, but is there any comprehensive list anywhere of stats that you have for tournaments? The one above seems to be a bit outdated.

This isn't really a complaint but I recall that the question about the United Fruit Company and banana republics didn't prompt when my team buzzed in and said fruit so we got it incorrect.Any reason for that? I feel like that answer should have definitely should have been prompted on.

Re: Movies of the year!
Plus one for Blade Runner 2049. As a huge sci fi fan it pretty much was incredible the whole way through and I'm saying this as a guy who's usually super cynical about film.
Also The Disaster Artist is one of the most hilarious yet poignant movies I've ever seen. It's so good.
