Regarding Tom Michael's comments...
Amen
for adjusting points by tossups heard and the
arguments therein. I know I was trying to convince Frank
that such an adjustment should be made, but that Frank
said that using scores would simply be easier (for
most people running tournaments across the board
anyway). And in terms of looking at the board of results,
he's right.
But I do note in a region where I
was clipping at 25 tossups per game and another
reader in my region going at 15 (yes... I said 15), it
would be a much fairer statistic to judge than just
plain points scored or differential.

etc.
P.S. I didn't expect to actually finish packets but I
know I did... four times. Usually the number of
bonuses I read out when tossups ran out was in the
mid-teens, but I did finish the CWRU-OWU semifinal (by
chance I wound up reading that game) with 28/20 read.
