'''Accessibility''' is a somewhat nebulously-defined term that describes two things:

#For a question, the percentage of games in which a certain question was correctly answered.
#For a tournament, the average skill level of a team at the tournament, as measured by [[conversion metrics]].

There is no objective scale of accessibility; if a tournament has an 85% tossup conversion rate, it does not necessarily mean that the tournament is "85% accessible".

In recent years there has been a huge movement toward higher accessibility as [[the circuit]] has expanded, with many new teams playing events of regular difficulty or higher.

The [[ACF IS IMPOSSIBLE]] movement accuses [[ACF]] of having tournaments that fail to meet their arbitrarily defined standards of accessibility.
