Edmund said: - Nationwide recognition for QB-style achievement has generally increased. Craig countered: Yes, from squat to squat and a half. We're still toiling in the backwater of the backwater of obscuirity on a national scale. You'd be lucky to have 3 people out of 100 average Americans surveyed by Wiggery and Associates have a basic idea what "College Bowl" or "Academic Competitions" are. Am I complaining, no, I am merely stating that we are still very much under the radar and that if people do want to work to increase the visability of programs like ours from mere curiosity to actually something people care about, or at the very least, know what they are, we still have a long way to go to achieve that. Jer says: One way we could do this, although it might be shooting ourselves in the foot, is that when we go on game shows and win thousands on dollars, we can mention the dozens of weekends we spend learning the material that likely enabled that win. Of course, then someone will consider everyone a ringer and the networks will ban QB players from their shows, reducing all our aspriations of being millionaires, but increasing publicity tenfold as the story makes the rounds of the entertainment news.
