just learned about the Ellsberg paradox today in class. why couldnt this have happened before the tournament

Seconding that I also enjoyed the landlord and Guan Yu questions

Can I see the (rest of the) St. Louis Cardinals TU? Thanks!

This is scheduled to be on the same day as the NAQT ICT; is there a possibility that it could be held on a different day?

This tournament happened, to say the least. Congratulations to Harvard for clearing the DI field, and to Yale B, who defeated Williams A in a one-game final after the latter beat Yale C in a three-way tie for first in DII! A huge thanks to our staffers, without whom we could not have run the tournam...

I, Walter Zhang, will be the tournament director. This tournament will be untimed with 11–tossup-bonus-cycle halves. Location The tournament will...

I'm excited to announce that I will be going Brown University next year for my master's in CS.* I already go there, but I just wanted to put that out there for all the people wondering, "Where will Walter be for his senior year of his undergraduate degree and his masters degree? Will he make an...

I am interested and would appreciate any tips for going between Richmond and UMD and places to stay near the latter.

After a fantastic finals sequence, Yale A has won the tournament! they also claim the UG title. Harvard gets second overall. Second place UG goes to MIT B; first and second DII go to Columbia C and Brown respectively. Thanks to staffers for staffing and players for playing! stats are at https://hsqu...

Brown Quizbowl is happy to announce the Northeast mirror of HARI (Hari's Academic Regular(-minus) Invitational) on Saturday, November 20th, 2021. The questions are approximately two dots out of four (medium-difficulty) on Ophir's difficulty scale. The tournament will take place at the Barus and Holl...

Another method of studying I have experienced success with is Clue Time. In a Discord voice call, one person shares their screen, but scrolls down through the questions at reading speed one line at a time. On tossups, "collaboration" is done by people buzzing in and explaining their though...

Bonus 18 of packet 12 claims that Benvenuto Cellini was commissioned by Pope Francis I.

Who Would Win?

An incredible team with camaraderie, balance, and synergy who would go on to place 2nd at HSNCT and 3rd at PACE NSC and beat many other top ranked teams

I propose that if such a clause is not present already, add a clause explicitly involving disciplinary action (eg being kicked from the team/banned from participating in team activities) for misconduct like harassment to club constitutions so that club leadership can take action.

Thank you everyone for attending! 24 team tournaments are logistically difficult by themselves without even taking into consideration the fact that it's on Discord, but we managed to make things work out in the end. This was a very strong field and we are very happy with the results. Special thanks...

It’s important for there to be a nationals or a championship or something to look forward to at the culmination of the season, or else there’s no real competitive motivation behind studying and going to regular season tournaments. Right now, due to the difficulty of the questions, the “peak” of the...

Could I see the full text of the United States tossup (geography) from round 4? One territory governed by this country has lost almost all of its native birds due to the invasive brown tree snake. This country controls the disputed Navassa Island, and this country claims the Bajo Nuevo [“BA-ho-new-...

Packet 8 The Ives and RUR tossups seemed a bit hard for the difficulty this set was aiming for (though I'd like to be proven wrong about the difficulty about those tossups). I wrote the Ives tu; I saw that Ives has definitely been tossed up at around this difficulty before (MBAT, Prison Bowl 2017, ...

The first line of the Pearl River tossup (packet 8, tossup 1) is inaccurate. The Statue of the Five Rams in Guangzhou is found in Yuexiu Park, which is not in the Temple of Five Immortals. I also found that for packet 13, bonus 20, the name of the preacher who led the Azusa Street Revival is William...

I will also be attending Brown along with Anson and Michael and plan to play, though obviously that is barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Can we please get a field update? And when is the deadline for registration? Thank you.
