Questions were hard, especially bonuses towards the end. To be expected from TJ II, but still... Having 32 teams make playoffs was an odd decision when 44 teams were supposed to show up, and an even odder decision when only 40 made it. Card system was somewhat effective. It was odd that we played Wh...

We have an IB program, but not the only one in Montgomery County. We're becoming less and less of the county magnet, and more of just a magnet program within the county. With regards to the overall issue, if teams qualify to go, and if they can afford to, then they should be allowed to go; on the ot...

I apologize if this post seemed to be arguing over the protest. State College beat us fair and square. I was curious about the underlying principle, however (dynastic names of monarchs being unpromptable), and whether that should be changed. To make this question broader, for what reasons should we ...

Again, congrats to State College. We sorta let that one slip out from under us. To be honest, I doubt I would have even gotten the answer right if I had been prompted. One quibble: at times, the questions seemed unreasonably (a bonus on Armenia?) or unnecessarily (the requirement to give the entire ...

We went to TJ II today. It was a good tournament, and A team lost to State College A in the finals. However, there was an issue about one question in the finals bracket. The question asked for a Byzantine monarch, and the monarch's family name (Comnemnus; this name had not come up specifically, alth...
