Panasonic Results
Greetings from Orlando!
Much to my surprise, we have a computer with internet access in our room that apparently doesn't cost anything. So, it looks like I might be able to offer up some updates after all.

I've been searching for a PAC "news" source, as there is zero reporting here.

They will post results here, though I won't be surprised if Byko beats them to it.

Re: Panasonic Results
Yeah, we got that nice surprise at CAC as well. The front desk didn't even realize what was going on, as they told us we'd have to pay. You can unplug the ethernet and plug into your own laptop, but wireless is NOT free. They made quite an upgrade to the garden wing rooms!Byko wrote:Greetings from Orlando!

MrSchnippert- that's a great idea! We need to have a coaches challenge at CAC. It's basically an opportunity to be on the other side of the buzzers, so to speak. At PAC, the idea is to help familiarize coaches with the unfamiliar format-- but it's a lot of fun and a great way to meet people.
By the way, Team 3 (Maryland, Wyoming, Florida, and West Virginia coaches) might have come in second if we could have figured out whether or not to include cotton in "naval stores". The "gun cotton debate" took too long. Oh, well, a good time was had by all and I wnt back to my room singing Weird Al's "I Lost on Jeopardy". And we got a lovely consolation prize.
The PAC link is not working right now because for some reason the entire Polk County Schools' website is kaput. Stay tuned for an update on its availability-- but I'm betting that we will have to count on folks here to provide "fair and balanced " reports. I nominate Shepherd Smith Bykowski to do the updates from the front.

I wish I could join you next year. I competed twice as a student, and this was my second year coaching, but I am not allowed to coach Team Duval anymore since I moved to a private school. Actually, I am allowed, if I pay my own way.hardeecoach wrote:We need to have a coaches challenge at CAC.

We're here, I forgot byko was coming.... we're resting up for our matchup with the crazy PAC format.
We got here too late to register though, so apparently I have to get up in the morning and do it then.

The registration desk is in the convention center- on the main level. You'll go through the main lobby of the hotel and go out the side door to the convention center. Once inside, you will turn right and see a rotunda -type area at the end of the hall. Registration is just before that area, on your right. I believe they hung a big Panasonic banner this afternoon.. you can't miss it!

Are we supposed to dress up for the rules meeting/luncheon?... I've seen teams in suits and team shirts, meanwhile we're scrubbing it up in t-shirts and shorts...

Also, Oklahoma won their room (over California) on the last question, both scoring over 320 points, though only three teams were in that room.
As to the IL/DC/ME/NM room, DC buzzed in a lot, but negged about as much. The other two teams were rather quiet.
The match is still going on, but after the 5-point round with DE/PA/MO/TX, Missouri had a 9-point lead over Texas, who were surprisingly (at least to me) good. Missouri was buzzing in very aggressively and negging a fair amount, while Texas had no negs. The other two teams were, again, rather quiet.

Now that I've gotten the shock of my life from the insanity that is PAC format... hopefully we can put up higher points in the semis... off to Disney if the thunderstorm rolls out finally.

That thoroughly confuses me. I didn't know Iowa had relocated to the coast... I also have no idea what school that could be referring to. On another note, did MLK (Tennessee) just choose not to go?

I was confused about that too, so I looked it up... Southern Cal is a JR-SR high school located in Lake City, IA. It has an astounding 307 students.vandyhawk wrote:That thoroughly confuses me.

Well, bless my soul... there's an Indiana team? News to me. Plus, it Ben Davis HS, who didn't play in a league this year, IIRC.
Somebody's who there, tell Ben Davis the rest of the state wishes them well!
