Re: Running Zoom Tournaments
Re: start time, I find it very unfair that the community expects West Coast players to get up super early, just so East Coast players don't have to stick around in the evening. The fact that West Coast players have put up with this over and over again in the past does not make it okay. As someone w...

Re: Your nationals stories—no title teams allowed
I'm gonna talk about my time at ICT 2018, and in particular 2 rounds, one of which I got 0 points. In our last prelim game, we were playing UCSD, and it was looking like a fairly low scoring game. I had proceeded to contribute very little in the first half, and we were up something like 90-30. In th...

Re: ACF Fall 2019 Specific Question Discussion and Errata
[10] After the Æsir kill Thjazi and recover the apples, Odin attempts to appease Skadi by turning Thjazi’s eyes into one of these things. To resolve a paradox, Zeus turns Laelaps and the Teumessian fox into two of these objects. Sorry if I'm being nit-picky, and maybe this wasn't an issue in the ac...

Could I see the exact wording on the bonus on varna? I'm sure it was just me messing up, but I just want to make sure it was just me being silly by saying jati instead

I would like to apologize for that. I do not believe that my teammate meant any harm when he said that (he is considered somewhat of a thought player, and I think failed to get any points on the more feminism-related bonuses), but yes, I or someone else should have said something. What he said is no...
