I appreciate the thoughts and concerns in this thread, and I am happy to address them. I am deeply passionate about quiz bowl and have been part of the community for close to a decade: it’s important to me that we not only survive these times, but thrive. My reason for making this organization is to...

While the other concerns in this thread will be addressed, I would like to take a moment to emphasize that we are in compliance with all labor laws of the United States.

Snoopy

We have created a new website at www.aqbleague.com with all the information you will need, as well as definitive editions of all the most important documents in Quizbowl Putting all the other problems to the side for a moment, this claim seems eminently unreasonable. The correctness guidelines lite...

My team and I are excited to announce the creation of the American Quizbowl League, the newest national Quizbowl organization! The AQBL will be offering 65 Online Quizbowl tournaments in the 2020-2021 season, the last one being the all-new Online National Championship Tournament at the end of the ye...

Snoopy

Well, expect a lot of Sunday tournaments, then... The ACT and SAT are not going to schedule around quizbowl. Why should quizbowl, which already has to worry about making sure it spaces out events enough to not conflict with an existing quizbowl tournament, have to worry about the ACT or SAT unless ...

My teammates usually get like 5 or 6 powers per round If you have very good teammates like this, and especially if one of them is a History player as well, you might just be shadowed very heavily. Do you make good contributions on bonuses when you compete? If you play by yourself, say, on Protobowl...

This is still a thing, and we still need people to find school contacts. The need has only become more urgent. We've also received a most generous grant in the thousands of dollars to help build the database from an anonymous source. If you're bored this summer, what with the quarantine, this is an ...

This tournament was today! Detroit Country Day ran the field and won with a flawless 10-0 record, beating out Tenafly Middle School A in the final. Third place went to Lowell, followed by Wilmington Charter, Wakeland A, Wakeland B, Churchill, Coppell, Tower Hill, and Commack to round out the top 10....

We have lots of spots! Get those registrations in soon for the last Quizbowl of the season!

Snoopy

So after being roundly mocked for this little project, I've decided to do what I do best: double down. Anyone who wants to do this will be duly paid $1 per contact. That's not bad cash. Find 15 schools in an hour and you're making minimum wage. Payouts will be capped at $2,000 total for all finders....

Stats are up!

This tournament was today! Arcadia took the championship, followed by the Norfolk Academic Guild, Hotchkiss, and Barrington (Illinois).

Snoopy

The field is presently full; we'll be expanding this after I call in a few extra staff, so keep registering! You'll almost certainly get a spot.

Snoopy

So after thinking about this overnight, I want to make something more clear: this is not a job, I know this is not a job, and this is not something to make significant cash off of, since it was never intended to be. Normally, people would volunteer for something like this, but I wanted to give peopl...

Snoopy

Respectfully, Cody, where? I sure haven't seen it. If I can avoid paying out thousands of dollars to build a contact database, by all means, I'm open to it!

Snoopy

Fair enough; on second thought, yeah, that's pretty low.

Make it a quarter per contact.

Snoopy

Hello, everyone! The LIQBA is now accepting applications for contact finders as we aim to build a comprehensive database of Quizbowl teams nationwide. If you want to help grow Quizbowl while earning a little extra cash, now is the time. No experience Necessary. You will be an independent contractor;...

There also appears to be an open mirror of RAFT on the same day as the closed mirror.

Thanks, Conor! I believe that's everything for now.

Stats are posted! Thanks, everyone!

How will prelim seeding be determined? Additionally, how will playoffs work, and will there be a finals game? Seeding will be determined by previous performances, including MS performances; if none are available, we will do our best to be accurate, but of course, we are not infallible. We will dete...
