Hey TDs! Submit your packets for archiving!

Post by cdcarter »

Since there are all these quality house written tournaments going on these days, it's about time HS quizbowl has had a packet archive, and now we do!

Check out http://quizbowlpackets.com!

If you are running a tournament, and the last use of the set is done, and you have the rights to, please submit your set! These questions are good and other High Schools would love the practice materials.

Thanks!

PS: Mods, would you sticky this

The HSQB Packet Archive now contains the PACE NSC Tournaments from 1998-2006! This is your official source for good high school quizbowl!

I know this is the high school archive, but your college page hasn't been updated in a while and I'd like to post up these links to tournaments that are freely available and of a good quality that would be optimal for loading onto your archive.

Illinois Novice 2008 needs to be uploaded to the college part too.
Also, on the high school front, if you can track down the Maryland/Vandy/Minnesota set, that is good stuff.

The HS side has been updated with this and last years PACE NSC and the spring qualifier sets! Go download them and enjoy.

The collegiate half is getting updated with all of Dees' suggestions and more currently!

Hey Chris, could you link HS packet archive with college packet archive (and vice-versa)? I don't think there even is a link to the college one on this forum, so it'd be quite helpful. Thanks.

I remember that there used to be a link that only worked from HS to College, and the return link gave an error when the site first came up.

The file containing Packet 7 of the 1999 PACE NSC has been corrupted. Could you upload a new file?

Is there any regulation as to the type of file a school submits (i.e. does it have to be a .zip or Adobe file)?

The best is if you send me a .zip of the files in .doc, .rtf, or .pdf format. If you send me something weird, I will either try and fix it myself, or just send it back.

I can't seem to access this from any mobile device. Any clue on what's going on?

I just wanted to drop a word here, and say that I really appreciate the effort put into creating the archive. It's been incredibly useful for my team's practices (especially since we're too cheap to buy NAQT's "practice questions"). :P
