Sorry Dan, I forgot to check this but I'm glad you were able to make it. Congrats to You, Me, and Willie McGee (Ryan Rosenberg, Natan Holtzman, Mike Sorice, Dan Arribas Hedo), who defeated Maryland B (Tejas Raje, Naveed Chowdhury, Justin Hawkins, Sam Rombro) in the final. This sheet contains the tea...

Re: Let's Forget About Guys (sports and games) (March 14) (time poll)
I am closing the time poll. 9 AM and 12 PM are tied but I'm casting the tiebreaking vote for 12 PM PDT . I am finalizing the field size at 8 teams. Currently there are 11 open spots (1 open team and 7 spots in existing teams) and 10 free agents, so there is room for one more free agent if no one lea...

Let's Forget About Guys (sports and games) (March 14, noon PDT)
I wrote a set called Let's Forget About Guys with contributions from Michael Coates and Jayanth Sundaresan. This is a hard set on sports (~80%), games, and adjacent topics. There are no questions on guys (individual people or animals) because guys are too hard to remember. I tried to find interestin...

Re: 2017 HSNCT discussion
I believe the tossup on 1 said that cos(2x) = 1 - 2cos^2(x) rather than 2cos^2(x) - 1.

Re: Oxford American Tournament 2017 (OAT)

I'm quite ...
