Now that the Gossolalia seems to have subsided, I guess I'll post the official results from the two tournaments this weekend. First, thanks to Bryce Avery, James Dinan, Kristin Hamlin, and Michelle Cantave for reading at various points during the weekend. Almost everyone seemed to enjoy the questions. Some rooms were pretty hot, and the Masters tournament lasted until fairly late, but we don't play no pansy-ass quizbowl here at UMCP. so anyway, here's the results: Rosters A The extraordinary number of episodes in this novel render any coherent plot summary impossible Rick G.

He also brought two buzzers and came up with a usable format for so few people, and thus salvaged a foundering tournament. The questions can be purchased through their respective writers. Thanks again to everyone who attended! Dave
