well at Chip's tournaments and tip them off to the

I'd rather have the
solution be that the existence of the archive be made more
public to all the high school teams. I'm not sure about
whether your scenario will produce upset wins, but having
a team win simply because it knew more questions
from the Archive isn't fair. Besides, there's more to
Chip's competitions than just knowing the answers
apparently...
This whole scenario is starting to smack of "Cheaters"
(HBO movie) and some of the issues being raised at US
Academic Decathlon... but I really don't want to get into
that. If you want really f'ed up
competitions...
/// etc.
P.S. On point #2, what's to stop
anyone from assuming someone's name and school to access
the archive?
