Mr. Huff, is Eastside High from Taylors SC not registered?

ehh... tying the bonuses into the questions would take some of the exciting randomness out of the game. Also I'm not sure on the other results but the semi-finalists were I believe Fort Mill A and Spartanburg and Southside Christian A beat Eastside A in an extremely close final match that ended in S...

Southside Christian A beat Eastside A in sudden death overtime 270-260 after an impressive 140 comeback by Eastside A on the last couple tossups of regulation play.

I have found overzealousness tends to scare away newbies, you have to find the way to make your group seem flashy and cool without seeming like you are forcing them into something unusual and foreign. Also on days when you have newbies coming, have your better players run practice so as not to embar...

isn't there some way that the quizbowl community can help or give them ways to set up more local, low-cost tournaments, that way they can keep competing even if they can't go to the larger tournaments?

9. No matter how much time you spend trying to learn everything, you can't

good tournament guys, it was very well run, if you guys decide to run it again next year though, you really do need to bring back the bounce back rule for bonuses, I understand why you did it, and the pros and cons for taking it out are obvious. In actuality though, the bad out weighs the good from ...

Eastside's gonna be there, I heard Dorman was going to give them a hand running it.

ok, thank you

i've wanted to get in-county play going in greenville county for some time, our county only tournament is coming up soon, any suggestions on how to spread the idea around?

Eastside has done particularly well this year, we got top sixteen at Dorman, we've still got miles to go and were losing several starters to graduation, but we've gone from losing all of our games to winning more than half in one season. I'm just surprised at how good some of the teams in the Greenv...

this is true.

A friend and I were talking, and we came to the conclustion that a two person-team quizbowl competition would be pretty fun, I know they have individual competitions, but I haven't heard of anything like this, I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this.

It would be nice to have a buzzer that just lights up and doesn't make any sound.

I get really aggrevated with the ones that make that flat errrrr sound, you hit the button and they make one loud flat note for about a second or so.

I like the Quiz Machine thing we use here at Eastside, but I've heard others find it's quack annoying.

ummm here at Eastside in Taylors SC we sell lollipops from the Ozark Delight Lollipop company, they sell these suckers in boxes containing several bags of lollipops (60 suckers in each bag) they come in insane flavors, we sell them for 50 cents a piece, and we make a killing, on top of that, when yo...

Cool, so hopefully it'll be back online soon

The website still seems to be down for me, I believe this is day two, has anyone gotten on the website?

Sorry to bother you guys and your discussion, but does anyone have any clue what happened to the naqt website, I don't know if it's me or what but I can't get on the website, if it is a larger problem than just me, does anyone know what it is?

thanks, and the one in georgia... I don't remember, it was outside of atlanta somewhere, we were dragged through the mud

I am probably going to be captain on the Eastside Highschool Academic team, in Taylors, SC, and I'm trying to start my team in the right direction to do better than we did last year, we've started ironing out our problems and are ready to begin competing, but our real problem is the lack of tourname...
