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

  1. For a question, the percentage of games in which a certain question was correctly answered.
  2. 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.
