The last time somebody tried to piss this list off, it was bitchass something (who a number of people believe was Gabe Desjardins, but that was never confirmed). So, who is Mickmars2000? I doubt it is the Motley Crue guitarist. His info says his name is Bob Deal, and he is a 39-year old from Los Angeles, California. I have never heard of a Bob Deal from the quiz bowl circuit, but if all his info is true, the fact that a 39 year old from 3000 miles away is criticizing Penn Bowl is pathetic. He should be pitied, as he would be eight years older than John Nam. Now that is ancient! More likely this is someone hiding behind an alias. Obviously this person is out just to get Penn Bowl's defenders very angry. So I ask, what is the point of getting angry? I'm sure whoever Mickmars2000 is is laughing his butt off when he gets to read the reactions of people on this list. Kind of like a Matt Colvin post, only much more sadistic. So just ignore it -- if those posts make you that angry, then don't give him the satisfaction. -Adam P.S. I am not MickMars 2000; I think single-elim is about the best you can do for a field of 64. 36 teams or less (or 33 or less with packet submission) should not use it, but any bigger and the only alternative is Swiss-pairing/ladder play I guess.
