Wishing Sacha a great new year and century (lucky Aussie) ... as well as the rest of us. Of course, considering that I have to shut this computer down until I sneak back into work on the 2nd (the computers aren't supposed to be back up in my lab until the 4th). The main point of the post is that I guess I've been a dinosaur having had memories of what qb was like 10 years ago. All I can say is it's incredible to see how the circuit itself has grown in that time period. Imagine 10 years ago where all packets had to be submitted and we dealt with emailing in text format all our questions or mailing our disks. Heck, we had actual mail, paper, and postage costs to send out invitations. Now we can e-attach questions to people, play old rounds via chat rooms, even transmit voice and movies (as I suspect we'll wind up doing with question packet supplements in the near future). It's amazing how much we've progressed from my days as a player, and those really didn't feel like they were that long ago either. Suffice it to say, there are certainly various competitions that were landmark tournaments that made the last decade a great one. I won't belabor you to rate them but it would be a fun discussion (which I could start anyway): No ranking at this point -- I need help determining criteria. College Landmark tournaments in the 1990's ACF Nationals: the first major breakaways from CBI in the early 1990's. Penn Bowls, with #6 being considered the best-ever submission-question tournament NAQT Nationals at Penn High School Tournaments in the 1990's Brookwood GA Univ Maryland tournaments Vanderbilt Univ TN Yale Univ CT Begin discussion... after you're done purging millennia viruses... :)
