Multi-editing achievements
Analogous to Multi-championship achievements, it is possible to recognize multi-editing achievements for editors who have worked on several major events. This page originally marked Andrew Hart's attempt to categorize and recognize these multi-editing achievements for posterity, although others are welcome to coin their own multi-editing achievements (or add/update to the lists of people who have accomplished the existing ones).
Unless otherwise stated, each list is presented in the order in which the accomplishment was achieved.
Triple Crown of Editing
The Triple Crown of Editing refers to editing each of the tournaments that make up quizbowl's Modern Triple Crown: ACF Nationals, NAQT ICT (DI), and Chicago Open. Seven editors are known to have completed the Triple Crown of Editing.

Grand Slam of Editing
The Grand Slam of Editing refers to editing each of the four overall championships in quizbowl, which make up the Grand Slam: ACF Nationals, ICT (DI), HSNCT, and NSC. Because a comprehensive list of NSC editors does not appear to be publicly available, the lists of those who have achieved this accomplishment are likely not comprehensive and may be inaccurate.

ACF Editing Triple Crown
The ACF Editing Triple Crown refers to editing each of ACF's three flagship events ACF Fall, ACF Regionals, and ACF Nationals. It does not include ACF Winter, which ACF ran in 2009-10 before canceling and has resumed running in 2020 (see ACF Editing Quadruple Crown below).

ACF Editing Quadruple Crown
The ACF Editing Quadruple Crown refers to editing each of ACF's four tournaments: ACF Fall, ACF Winter, ACF Regionals, and ACF Nationals. Because ACF Winter has only run four times, and had not run before 2009, the ACF Quadruple Crown is less attainable than the ACF Triple Crown.

Notes
- ↑ NAQT has two levels of set editing that, for most sets, are each equivalent to a circuit "head editor"; the head editor notations for NAQT events represent a best effort at determining which editorial positions are equivalent to full-set head-editor jobs, although they err on the side of crediting a person for head editor work. For circuit editing teams of three or fewer without a specified head editor, each editor was considered a head editor. Because NAQT does not publicly display editing information, years have not been included, pending permission, for the years before 2011. Although it may have sometimes done so before, after 2011, NAQT has generally recognized its SCT and ICT editors publicly following the events.
- ↑ * For sections specifying head editors, the asterisk denotes that this role was as an associate editor; for sections specifying "any role," the asterisk denotes that this role was as a head editor. For the sections about "most times editing marquee events," the asterisk also denotes that this role was as a head editor.
- ↑ The ACF website lists Andrew as the head editor of Fall 2007, but this appears to be in error; it appears that Andrew worked on Fall 2005
- ↑ It appears that documentation of the 2005 and 2006 Fall editor teams does not exist, but the ACF qbwiki pages appears to suggest that Eric Kwartler served as the head editor of those tournaments.
- ↑ This list is probably not comprehensive
- ↑ This stretches back to 1999-2000, the first year listed on the ACF qbwiki page. It may not be comprehensive for editors who are not listed on ACF's member page (due to resigning) or on ACF's qbwiki page (which stops listing editors at 2014-15), or whose details are inaccurate on either source.
