I had a lot of fun in this tournament. I agree that there was one lagging reader but I don't want to harp on that point because overall it was a well run tournament. Kudos to Mr. Weiner, the hosts at VCU, and all of those who staffed. :)

I had a great time. As a Div II team, I can attest that I had a hard time convincing my team to continue playing. I think that teams who have never actually played that many games in a row experience great fatigue. We ended up getting 4th in Div II on Saturday, which I believe qualifies us for natio...

It caused a great deal of confusion because teams ...

Does anybody know what happened with teams switching seeds in the playoffs? Because that was weird and not supposed to happen. I am still not particularly sure, even though I was part of the whole ordeal. From my understanding: Langley A was supposed to face Maggie Walker C first round of the brack...

The Liberty district is too strong...the other districts are much weaker.

That was a horrible final jeopardy question. Still, he put up a respectable performance. Shame he didn't guess Lindbergh, thats what I was thinking. I can see why it seems too easy. Better than Glenn though.

I can recommend computer games, specifically historical ones. This would include: Civilization IV Crusader Kings Europa Universalis II (better for historical events) Europa Universalis III (better gameplay) Victoria Hearts of Iron II Rome Total War : Europa Barbarorum mod Not only can you learn his...
