Greetings Quizbowlites!
In case anyone cares, I have written an naqt/acf prognostication
column, to be found on the acf website. Perhaps it can spur some
kind of discussion. Perhaps not.
Anyway, since I wrote it, be aware of the change in several of my
opinions. I am told by reliable sources that Mr. Jon Penington of
Berkeley is more deserving of the spot I gave to the esteemed Mr.
Farris. My apologies.
Also, when I wrote it, I thought I'd be posting it anonymously, but
in the spirit of camraderie, I decided not to. So ignore all the
comments where I insult people trying to figure out who I am ;)
And finally, having heard that the aforementioned Mr. Penington will
not be playing at NAQT this year, I feel that I may have
overestimated Berkeley a smidge, and maybe UVA or Princeton are more
deserving of that top spot. But I suppose that remains to be seen :)
Otherwise, you can treat the discussion however you want. I stand by
everything else, near as I can remember.
later,
Paul
