49-Mile Scenic Drive

I was holding out hopes it would be somewhere else this year. Oh well.....

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I played this set at UTC yesterday and also think it was quite enjoyable. Props to Mike, George and the rest of the contributors for producing a nice set which made for a very enjoyable tournament.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Charlie will correct me if I'm wrong, but if I remember correctly it was

1st - Jake, Dargan, Myself (Churchy La Femme Nikita Khrushchev)
2nd - Kendall
3rd - UT Alums
4th - Pearson (Chuck Pearson Farewell Tour)

I can't remember Kendall's team name or the one for UT Alums.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I'm sure an Alabama contingent would be interested in this as well assuming it were the day after ICT, I'm always up for quizbowl. As for format, keeping it the traditional 20/20 would be awesome.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I plan on coming to this, barring any unforeseen happenings that would hamper my attendance. I'm not sure if anyone from my HSNCT Mirror team is planning to play trash too, once I know more details I'll shoot an e-mail.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

^What he said, I took the whole weekend off. So count me in as some sort of free agent I guess for trash, unless Sundberg plays trash or I find another team to join

49-Mile Scenic Drive

An e-mail has been sent (so Jake tells me) but myself and new teammate Jake Sundberg are interested. He informs me there is a possibility of 1 more Alabama player coming with us as well as a possibility of a special guest appearance by Chuck Pearson. Stay tuned folks.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I'll be at UA-Huntsville in the fall. I'm going to try to start a team there but until that happens I'll mooch off Alabama's funds and play with them. Roll Tide!

49-Mile Scenic Drive

That weekend should be perfectly fine. As long as I know 30 days in advance, count some random assortment of people and myself to be there for both tournaments.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Have you decided on a date for the HSNCT Mirror/Potential Trash Tournament yet Charlie?

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Is this tournament still happening? I heard Chattanooga was hit by the storms last night. Anywho, assuming my final gets rescheduled which seems highly likely, I'll probably be here solo. I'll let you know something when I know something. Snead is supposed to be making a new revised spring schedule ...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

They were keeping stats on a computer but at some point during the lunch break the power surged and the computer lost all data, so stats were kept on hand. I assume Dr. Carpenter hasn't been able to enter them yet. A short breakdown yields thus: 1st-Berry 10-0 2nd-Wofford 7-3 3rd-Me Solo 5-5 All-Sta...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

One thing I was thinking while hiking over to Maria's for our staff lunch (thanks, NAQT!) and, frankly, well before, is that I would really like to see the ICT move again. I completely understand the very good reasons why it has stayed at the Hyatt Regency for a while now, and I further understand ...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Can I safely assume that since I have not received any emails back concerning my packet, that it didn't totally suck and I might possibly have gotten the $20 discount?

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Snead State's packet is in the works and we hope to have it to you by the March 22nd deadline, and if not that for sure the April 3rd deadline. Unless some big event happens in the area between now and the 22nd our packet should be in by then, how usable it will be remains to be seen but we are tryi...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I know once Anthony graduates Snead we will try to start up a team at UA-Huntsville. Until then, I'm going to play with the AAQT at tournaments. There are alot of former Brindlee and DAR players, and others I'm sure who currently go to UAH and might be interested in starting a team.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Assuming I'm off I wouldn't mind driving down to this. Although it is a mystery as to how this tournament will be question-wise and quality-wise, tournaments that I am within feasible distance to and eligible to play in are nice. I'll hopefully have some friends to drag along with me, but if not I'l...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

All rounds will be 20 toss-up questions with non-associated bonuses. Bonuses will be in two parts and will bounce back, with the bonuses read one at a time, not both given at once. Each portion of the bonus must be worth 10 points. 10 question halves will be separated by a worksheet round of 20 que...

Have I missed something? Or did you just put UAH instead of UA?

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I got off work for this, put us down for a team. If Division matters, we're DII. Packet should be forthcoming whenever I can get time to do it.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Speaking as one of the aforementioned "Brindlee Mountain" people in the past, I will have to say being introduced to pyramidal quizbowl was definitely something we weren't initially fans of, but we stuck with it and had great success. Lee Henry started us on NAQT questions when we were in ...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Pretty sure we will be coming to this unless something unexpected and out of the ordinary happens. Will there be discounts for shorthanded or solo players? Because there is a strong possibility I'll be playing this solo if I attend

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Yeah we just found that after I posted that, I feel stupid

49-Mile Scenic Drive

So after the first night, we're sitting at 5-0? Any other news?

I'm sure Dallin, NW FL, Valencia, etc. are similar?

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Assuming we do get to attend, which will highly depend on me being off that Saturday, this will be our first attempt at writing a packet. As a matter of fact I may be the only one who participates in writing it, so as a forewarning excuse the craptastic packet from Snead.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Consider some Snead contingent to be interested, I'll know more soon

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I would love to come play this but alabamas high school naqt state tournament is that day and I've already committed to reading, if the date could be moved we would consider coming

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I'll tentatively say some contingent from Snead will make the trip, we've been wanting a trip back to Chattanooga

49-Mile Scenic Drive

What's this? Grissom manning up and doing Something not ASCA?

49-Mile Scenic Drive

To add to what James said above, I also don't think they e-mail every coach a copy of the stats. For all I know, the only people who have a copy are Jim Sanford, who kept stats, Lucy at Jeff State and lastly NAQT, who will hopefully post them shortly. I'd love to see them myself. Any word on the oth...

Results from the Alabama Sectional

1st Snead State A 11-0
2nd Jasper A 10-1
3rd Northwest Shoals 9-2

49-Mile Scenic Drive

In an effort to revive this topic and also due to my being stuck at home due to this weird white matter covering the ground in Alabama (hooray for getting a whole 2 days of practice in before the tournament!), lets do some Sectional Predictions. As for the Alabama Sectional, it's going to be interes...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Since I finally have some time on the boards and remembered about this, I'll post the quick results. 1st - Snead State (Myself) * t2nd - Alabama (Rob Palmer) * t2nd - Shorter University 4th - AUM Individuals: 1st- Mark Morris 2nd- Robert Palmer 3rd - Eli from Shorter 4th - Will (I think?) from AUM W...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I assume no packet submission? If so what questions will be used? Either way we will try to make it. I'll talk to the team today at practice and see if any are interested.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

To update on the Snead State situation, we will still be coming as long as my car doesn't die or something (with a possible full team!!

) , assuming this tournament is still on the 23rd which I think is true seeing as how the topic has not changed.

Sorry, we were looking forward to this

That may affect our attendance as well, as we were going to ride with them. I'll let you know something soon.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Would you need my help as a moderator again Mr Rutsky? I need to give at least a 30 days notice at work and was wondering.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

We are considering changing the date to October 30 thanks to no one noticing until last week that this tournament had been scheduled for the same date. Please don't. Besides there hasn't been any significant field overlap between the current teams in the field has their with the exception of maybe ...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Oh gotcha, I'm emailing him as we speak

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Assuming you go through with letting people outside the criteria play, but only those who meet the criteria be eligible for prizes, I'd love to drive down and play this assuming I don't have to work. I should know whether or not I have to work on that day within the next couple weeks or so. This so...

I really can't think of anyone having a beef with it either. However I do remember our match had an answer that came up twice in the same round baffling both of us, seems like it was Gamma or something.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Also I hear Cord is going to Alabama but where is Casey going (or is he gone gone)? Well it was rumored Casey was going anywhere from Athens State to Alabama, but last I heard Casey is going to Virginia College for an IT program because of his current IT job at Office Depot. It has apparently swaye...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I figure I'll do some rankings too. 1. Chipola - Dallin is a phenomenal player and I look forward to the epic matches we will have, which at the moment may amount to 3 including CCCT. They were predicted number 1 last year but finished 4th at CCCT only to have an impressive showing at ICT. With this...

49-Mile Scenic Drive

For some reason naqt.com says this is the "tentative" day as our Snead ACBL tournament, which is odd because it's on a Saturday. I'm pretty sure it's just a typo, but even if for some odd reason it isn't I should still be able to come help barring any set conflicts.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

I just emailed Farrah and I plan on attending this as well, playing solo as Team Me. You're welcome to join our team, as of now it's just Anthony and myself. This also assumes that the people at Georgia Tech would allow such an occurrence EDIT: Also, since it is more than likely just going to be 2 ...

Mr. Scott's(who more than likely won't be with us) e-mail is vscottATsneadDOTedu and if you email it to him he will usually forward it to us, an alternate e-mail address to reach me at personally is qbplyr_markAThotmailDOTcom

49-Mile Scenic Drive

You can more than likely go ahead and put us down for 1 team. Whoever is on that team however, remains undecided. It will be me and at least one other person with possibilities of a couple more once we start back. I'd say we could bring 3 or 4 buzzers sets if you'd like as well.

49-Mile Scenic Drive

Billy is decently close with his guess, Matt you're far off
