Rescheduling Games

If you need to reschedule one of your games, email the opposing captain as soon as possible and cc me, accnd@nd.edu on the email.

Suggest a time to make up the game, and I will verify if that time is available.

If you have a scheduled game and no one from your team is present, you will forfeit.

Checking In

Please report to the Great Hall of O’Shaughnessey Hall no later than 10 minutes before the scheduled start time of your game.

Check in with the representative there.

Wait in the Great Hall until someone from Quiz Bowl tells you that you can move to the rooms.

Game Format

A game consists of 20 tossup-bonus pairs of questions.

Teams play 4 members at a time. Moderator will read a tossup.

Whichever team gets it right will then have the chance to answer three bonus questions, for 10 points each.

The team that gets the most points wins.

Tossup

Before the asterisk (in the bold region) is worth 15 points. Any other correct answer is worth 10. An incorrect answer before the end of the question is -5

points for the team. No collaboration within the team. One answer from the team locks them out for that question. 5 seconds to begin an answer after buzzing in. 4 seconds to buzz in after the end of the question.

Bonus

10 points for each part of the bonus. The three parts are generally related to each other. One answer from the team. Can discuss before giving an answer. 5 seconds to answer once each part has been

read. Bonuses will not rebound.
