Early NAQT Results

Northeast - Basically the same thing that's
happened for the past forty years happened
again.

Mid-Atlantic and Central - Penn State and Michigan were
considered to be keys to the result. They surprised no one
by doing exactly what was expected. Delaware's
matches were considered the best chances of predicting
the eventual winner.

Heartland -
Missouri-Columbia, interestingly enough, lost in a game to a team
that did not, legally, exist. They decided to accept
the result and not protest it.

Northwest -
Teams actually simply sent in their results to the TD.
Results are not expected to be known for the next six
months.

West - The TD was quite irritated that questions were
already being discussed despite the fact that the West
regional had not yet finished.

Southeast -
Florida's final game, as expected, would decide who would
win the tournament. The results of the match,
however, were protested as one of Florida's dinosaurs
complained that the visual tossups were designed
confusingly, leading him to give two answers and thus be
declared wrong. The other team pointed out that one of a
Florida student was helping TD and that a six-year old
could understand the visual tossup and that any idiot
knew that only one answer could be
accepted.

Canada - No major problems, but then again, no one
really cared.

Both the Bush and Gore campaigns
have filed suit contesting the results of all
tournaments.
