From: "Zhan Huan Zhou" Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2003 18:34:40 -0000 Subject: [qb-canada] RESULTS: VETO Escapes to Toronto, Ontario University of Toronto held its first ever quiz bowl tournament. We had a total of seven teams. There were a few hiccups, but in the end, we had an exciting final. These are the FINAL standings: 1. Rico's Roughnecks (Rico, Eric, Mike, Dave (*), Richie(*)) 2. Squirrel of Strife (Bobby, Ron, Luke, Caroline) 3. Luke Perry and the Bojanglo-Tones (Adam, Matt, Jonathan, Keith) 4. Team Anthony (Bridget, Steve, Matt, Andrew) 5. Holy PHUT (Zhan, Justin, Rishi, Michelle, Emily) 6. Kurt Busiek's Atro City (Richie, Dave, Antoine, John, Kenway) 7. The Substitutes (Steven, Rob, Clara, Dan) (Dave and Richie are on KBAC, but played for RR in various games) The teams first played a full round robin. Here are the results. All teams beat lower ranked teams unless otherwise noted. 1. Squirrel of Strife 6 - 0 2. Rico's Roughnecks 4 - 2 lost to Team Anthony 3. Luke Perry and the BTs 4 - 2 4. Team Anthony 3 - 3 lost to Holy PHUT, beat Rico's Roughnecks 5. Holy Phut 2 - 4 lost Kurt Busiek, beat Team Anthony 6. The Substitutes 1 - 6 beat Kurt Busiek 7. Kurt Busiek's Atro City 1 - 6 lost to The Substitutes, beat Holy PHUT Since we did not have a computer at the tournament, we did NOT use the normalized point scheme to break ties. Instead, we used head-to- head records since it required the least computation. This broke the tie for second place and for last place. We then broke up the teams into a tiered round robin where the top four teams played each other and the bottom three teams played each other. The round stats are shown follwed by the overall record. 1. Squirrel of Strife 2 - 1 loss to Rico's Roughnecks 2. Rico's Roughnecks 2 - 1 loss to Luke Perry, beat Squirrel of Strife 3. Luke Perry and the BTs 2 - 1 beat Rico's Roughnecks 4. Team Anthony 0 - 3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 5. Holy Phut 2 - 0 6. Kurt Busiek's Atro City 1 - 1 lost to The Substitutes, beat Holy PHUT 7. The Substitutes 0 - 2 lost to Kurt Busiek Squirrel of Strife had sole possession of first place, but there was another deadlock for second place with RR and LP with identical 6 - 3 records. Even worse, they were 1 - 1 in head-to-head. The tie was broken by a match played between these teams. Second place tie-break: Rico's Roughnecks (+ Dave) d. Luke Perry and the BTs (160 - 120), packet by UBC Rico's Roughnecks claim second place. Since Rico's Roughnecks and Squirrel of Strife were 1 - 1 in head-to-head, one more game was played to determine the winner. Rico's Roughnecks with the help of Dave and Richie from KBAC won the final game. These are the results of the three games played: First final round: Squirrel of Strife d. Rico's Roughnecks (215 - 135), questions by B2B Second final round: Rico's Roughnecks (+ Dave) d. Squirrel of Strife (245 - 175), questions by SFU Junta Third final round: Rico's Roughnecks (+ Dave and Richie) d. Squirrel of Strife (170 - 140), packet by B2B Rico's Roughnecks win VETO Escapes to Toronto, Ontario. In the Trans-Canada Match, Eric was the only remaining member of Rico's Roughneck so he played with Caroline and Bobby of Squirrel of Strife as well as Dave from KBAC. Final score: Rico's Squirrel of Atro City d. B2B (185 - 90) Congratulations Torontonians for winning the Trans-Canada Match.
