Trygve Meade is a former law student at Southern Illinois University and former president of the Illinois Academic Buzzer Team.
Meade was oddly entrusted with the chief administratorship of the hsquizbowl.org forums after the retirement of Fred Morlan, a position in which he served until July 2010. After his tenure, a controversy arose regarding his unauthorized access of the private HSAPQ forum while not a member of HSAPQ, an action for which he apologized [1].
Trygve served as Communications Director of PACE, and as its President from summer 2010 until his resignation in July 2011 in the wake of a string of incompetencies and scandals.

His questions were marked by a reliance on writing from memory, which led to typos and incorrect proper names for things appearing in his questions with depressing regularity. The theft of his laptop, and thus supposedly one third of the Walden Three questions, prevented the running of that tournament during 2008 Chicago Open weekend.
